1984 Jaguar XJ6 Series 111 review from North America
"Consumes a lot of gas, must have deep pockets"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Many things didn't work:
AC
Sunroof
Horn
Needed new catalytic converter
Put 2 new batteries
battery charger blew 2wice
Put 2 new transmissions
Paint faded so fast
Speedometer worked on/off
Fog lights went off
Heat pump blew off.
General comments?
Classy car
Handles well
POWER, I don't think there is any car that beats it. maybe lamborginis and ferraris.
You get respect driving this car
My problems were associated with the age of the car. Newer versions match their performance $$to $$
I would purchase a newer type.
