1995 Jaguar XJ6 review from Australia and New Zealand
"Beautiful, shame about the electrics"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fuel gauge malfunctions at times. Can go from full to empty in 10k's (or the other way round).
ABS warning light comes on for no reason every now and then.
LCD clock has died and gone to heaven.
General comments?
This cars ride is the best I have ever experienced. On a good road it is amazing. Even on roads which previously resulted in loose fillings in my teeth (admittedly in an MR2), the ride is excellent. Long distance cruising is simply relaxing.
Handling is excellent around long sweeping bends, but can get a little unsettled with rapid changes of direction.
The interior space is not huge, but the leather seats are supportive and comfortable and fully adjustable. No significant wear after over 100,000km.
Feels very solid and well put together for a car over ten years old. No rust and excellent paintwork.
