1987 Jaguar
Hi all, my friend is looking into getting a 1987 Jaguar XJ6.
$5995
Only 47k miles
One Owner
Complete Records
Fully Loaded
What I was wondering is if these cars were reliable at all (I'm not big on the history of Jaguars), and whether or not it's a bad car for him to get in terms of something that will last him. He's not a big car buff, and isn't one to do small at home repairs like changing spark plugs, etc.
(this would be an early graduation present from his Grandmother, and he plans on keeping it through college)
Any help would be appreciated. thanks.

Run as fast as you can before something catches fire while looking at it.........
My Dad had one back when I was younger, he bought the car new and had it 2 months. Swore he would NEVER BUY ANOTHER BRITISH POS AGAIN!!!!!!! The car actually caught fire after numerous electrical problems.

thanks for all the responses everybody, when my friend asked if i found anything out about the car i gave him OLT's response...
he said he had also called the local Jaguar dealer, told them his situation, and he got the same response. Avoid that car.
