1996 Jaguar XJ6 L review from North America
"XJ!! The X is for extreme the J is for jealousy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
We have had some problems with the coils and eventually replaced them all.
General comments?
Overall this has been a trememdously reliable vehicle.
It does not deserve the bad rap it gets.
The car is over 8 years old and still turns heads; causing extreme jealousy for those poor soles driving BMW's and Mercedes' wondering why no one gawks at their cars this way.
No other car can compete with the lines and beauty of a Jaguar XJ series.
It is truly the world's most beautiful car with better than average reliability.
I would recommend this car to anyone.
