This 1985 Jaguar XJ6 Vanden Plas was sold new by Rowland Jaguar in Seattle, Washington, and has since remained registered in Alaska. Showing 14k miles, the car finished in Sage Green over Doeskin leather and is powered by a 4.2-liter inline-six paired with a three-speed automatic transmission. Features include a sunroof, a power antenna, 15″ Kent vented alloy wheels, four-wheel disc brakes, an AM/FM/cassette stereo, automatic climate control, cruise control, and power windows. Acquired by the selling dealer in 2025, this Series III XJ6 Vanden Plas is offered at no reserve with the owner’s manual, a clean Carfax report, and an Arizona title.

The Pininfarina-styled bodywork is finished in Sage Green (HEG) and features a power sunroof, a power antenna, power-adjustable side mirrors, bright trim, Vanden Plas pinstriping, and dual exhaust outlets. Paint checking is noted on the rear quarter panels.

The 15″ Kent vented alloy wheels are mounted with Mohave tires, and braking is handled by ventilated front and solid inboard rear discs. Rack-and-pinion power steering and independent rear suspension with twin-coilover damping were equipped from the factory. The steering rack bushings, sway bar bushings, and front upper shock bushings were replaced in 2026.

The seating surfaces are trimmed in Doeskin leather (AEE), while burl wood accents the dashboard, center console, and door panels. Interior equipment includes an AM/FM/cassette stereo, a trip computer, front bucket seats, automatic climate control, cruise control, adjustable rear reading lights, and power windows and locks. The selling dealer notes that the headliner was replaced in preparation for the sale.

The two-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 140-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 5k-rpm redline as well as gauges for oil pressure, voltage, fuel level, and coolant temperature. The six-digit odometer shows 14k miles, approximately 300 of which were added under current ownership.

The 4.2-liter inline-six was factory-rated at 205 horsepower and 231 lb-ft of torque. Recent work has reportedly included replacing the spark plugs, valve cover gasket, fuel filter, and air conditioning switch.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a BorgWarner three-speed automatic transmission, the pan gasket for which has been recently replaced.
