1990 Jaguar XJ6 review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to replace the water pump, the exhaust system (only because the previous owner had a cheap one put in.) And some occasional quirks... The antenna won't go down all the way sometimes. The power seat adjustment fails on occasion. The right rear power door lock doesn't work every time.
General comments?
Quite powerful. Not very expensive to run in US with cheap fuel costs. Very luxurious and now affordable. Why pay more for a newer economy car?
