Hey there jag collectors here is a rare one , 1971 xke coupe 6 cylinder, last year made, there were not many made in the final year of the real xke ,I bought this jag in dry climate sunny California , the last owner had it over 15 years . This car is very pretty in a metallic blue green paint , the original color was silver grey, they did not repaint the frame cages so it will be easy to return to silver but it sure looks great in this color , it has no rust, the floors and trunk are excellent, there is no evidence of any previous damage, all the chrome is excellent and the color shows it off , the car only shows 76000 miles and it appears actual, the speedo needle has fallen off but the odo works, the car is basically all original except the paint, it has a super smooth and quiet motor , the trans shifts great, the brakes are working but the right front caliper is sticking, the fans and lights all seem to work properly , the car rides nice but does have a clunk when you hit a bump possibly sway bar bushings, the exhaust is factory and sounds great, the original interior is very nice but the seat bottoms are worn and cracked so you could replace them, all the little trim pieces are on the car or with it, the choke knob is in the glove box and so are the driver door panel chromes , the wire wheels are very nice , the car is in really good condition and is not restored so it has led a fairly charmed life .cosmetically It needs a new driver door panel cardboard, and mechanically some brake work so I would not drive it home. It starts right up and runs nice . I am going to sell it so be serious and compare , I think that this being a 1971 is a valuable point from a collector standpoint and either way it is the end of the dainty and beautiful xke iconic lifespan.any questions call jay at 956 624 2669 , I will take 38500 buy it now but don't let that keep you from bidding however If you want it you should call me immediately as it will sell and this is one of the lowest priced cars on the market today
