[Request] Jaguar XJS on sale in Belgium
 
Hello,

Since this is not really a request for videos or pics, so I've posted it in the car chat. My boss is looking for a Jaguar XJS more then 15 years old and with an engine bigger then 4 litres. I think they had a 4.2 model.

He's looking quite hard for it, but it's not so easy to find apparently. So I thought I could rely on the skill of the car fanatics on this site to help me find some nice one's...

I'm also looking a bit for magazine articles or videos about it. I'm glad that Top Gear is doing a feature on it this sunday. I doubt there have been magazine articles posted on the car... If I'm wrong on that, correct me plz.

thx in advance for your time!!

Thx for the effort guys!!

I found some too after I posted this, the first two that you've posted for instance, but they aren't so easy to come by apparently.

He would like to have at least the 4.0 but the bigger the better :D

Lets see if I can gain some points with helping him out :D
No, seriously, I'm just doing it because I like looking for cars :)

I wonder about the specs. The 6.0 is indeed quite amazing, 330hp and it looks nice!! I know there's a 3.6, a 4.0 and a 5.3 v12 which does 6.9 sec 0-100km/h.

Why if I may ask? I don't know much about older jag's but what's the problem with a manual. Certainly in an older car I would prefer a manual, because automatics weren't so good yet, in general. That's what I would expect anyway, I'm far from an expert.
