Jaguar XJ6 Series 1 1973

On the run-up to the launch of the new Jaguar XJ, I take you round my beloved Jaguar XJ6 and from an owner's perspective, tell you what the new XJ must do in order for it to feel as special as the 1970s original.

Wow GTVAlfaman that is incredible. These cars are far too good to let rot - which is exactly what would happen if they were just left in the UK elements. JonQ

I believe that Jaguar should not become more like its German rivals but instead insisting on its British heritage.

I'm thinking of buying a XJ6 series 1, absolutely love the styling, my only worry is, just how unreliable are these cars?

[urungutang]

English cars are shit,sorry...unreliable shit.....Looks nice though,but still shit

[RHCPFansite]

Beautiful cars.

Old casrs can be very reliable, but sadly old Jags are not. Nice cars, though.

The new Jaguar is amazing. It is a proper Jag. Nice Jag btw, I've got a 89' Jaguar XJ40 Sovereign and it's my first car. lol

See 'cash for clunkers', they pour some sodium silicate in the oil, rev them for a few minutes and they're history. Old cars are lethal to drivers but the styling still appeals!

I have a 1995 XJ12. I have spent more than i can ever afford to keep it on the road and friends say it a lemon and not worth the money. I tell them exactly what you said....It makes me feel fantastic when driving it! To me its worth every penny.

I crashed my xj6 series 1 last weekend and i've already fixed almost the entire damage,the front right wing and door were completely smashed,thankfully it wasn't damaged mechanically...
