Ebay item 11/18/17
www.ebay.com/itm/1976-Jaguar-XJ6-C/182907563444
Car has a buy it now price of $59,000 for 6 days, seller bob_carnut, 30k miles.

Sellers description:
The XJ Coupe is a beautiful and rare model. Only 3,889 left hand drive examples were built during their 3 years of production.

Most were equipped with the awful Borg Warner 3 speed automatic transmission. My matching-numbers European-spec coupe has the VERY rare 4 speed manual transmission with overdrive and the much nicer Euro bumpers. Except for the auto trans, this car has every option in the book including air conditioning. This combination of matching numbers, a manual trans, AC, a desirable color combination and exceptional condition makes this a one of a kind vehicle.

But wait - there's more: This car was originally titled in The Netherlands, but has been imported to the US with an EPA exemption and titled in the state of NJ. Then I imported it to France where it is currently registered and located.

The car has had a complete mechanical rebuild/update (David Marks Garages) and frame-off restoration (Alan Proctor) done in Nottingham England.

This coupe was originally bought by a Dutchman who went to England to take delivery. I have the original registration papers. I bought the car from him in 1987 and, like him, keep it garaged and only drive it on sunny days.

You will not find a better driver anywhere and it would not take much to make this car a concourse winner.
