The XJ40-generation sedan introduced a more modern interpretation of Jaguar’s classic luxury formula while retaining the elegant silhouette that made the XJ famous. Chrome accents, signature quad headlamp treatment, and factory 15-inch teardrop alloy wheels give the car a distinguished presence, while the exceptionally low mileage is reflected in its well-preserved appearance. The Vanden Plas trim further elevated the XJ6 with additional luxury appointments and a more exclusive character than its standard counterparts. The interior of this 1988 Jaguar XJ6 Vanden Plas is upholstered in supple Tan Connolly leather, showcasing the craftsmanship that defined Jaguar’s flagship sedans of the era. Rich Burr Walnut wood veneer trim spans the dashboard, center console, and door panels, creating a warm and inviting cabin atmosphere.

A premium Jaguar sound system adds to the refined experience, and the spacious long-wheelbase configuration offers exceptional rear-seat accommodations befitting a luxury sedan designed for effortless grand touring.

Powering this 1988 Jaguar XJ6 Vanden Plas is a 3.6-liter naturally aspirated inline-six engine equipped with electronic fuel injection. Renowned for its smooth operation and refined character, this Jaguar powerplant delivers power with effortless composure, perfectly matching the car’s luxury-focused mission. The engine sends power to the rear wheels through a 4-speed automatic transmission, providing relaxed cruising and seamless gear changes. Independent suspension at all four corners contributes to the XJ6’s renowned ride quality, while four-wheel disc brakes offer confident stopping performance. Combining traditional Jaguar refinement with modern engineering advancements for its era, this exceptionally low-mileage Vanden Plas remains a superb example of classic British luxury motoring.
