XJ6 Sport - £550 North Bristol (Page 7)


Recommended Posts

I would absolutely love this. Unfortunately my Coupe is simply not selling :(

If I wasn't moving house, I'd be seriously considering a deal with your 172. However I've got enough on my plate in finishing the 1100 enough before moving to get, realistically, another project.

 

 

I paid about £1200 for this car about 2 years ago and thought I'd done OK! It does indeed have the Andy Clamp (which cost me about £75 I think). Set of tyres were at least £250. In fact whoever buys this is literally stealing from me.

Don't feel too bad. It's just the weird roffle economics. I'd feel guilty putting it up on here to make a profit. If I was putting this on the open market I'd put it up for that price though. This is no cheap rotten banger for sure!

 

I wish I could have had it longer. But I've got my fun, but now I need to put my sensible hat back on. It's also grossly impractical for using in the narrow, congested, lack of parking place that is Bristol.

Two randoms.

 

Idle curiosity - how tall is your mate? Always fancied one of these but I'm 6'3" with a 31" inside leg. I'm basically a long spine with stumps on the bottom.

Good question, not sure. A fair bit taller than me! But then I'm only 5ft10.

 

It's his long legs that were the problem. Had to splay them out to fit in. A problem that he suffers in a lot of cars. MX5 are completely ruled out for him!

Oooph, I still have too many cars or I would be up for it.

 

Despite too many cars, I would deffo have a ticket if this was a rerowful.

 

It would be good to see it stay in the fold

If you decide to buy one you should be fine. I’m 6’ 6” and fitted ok (had a 3.2 and a 4.0) seat right back and down.

Wife said yes, money was available and space to park it, only the fact I'm having surgery next Friday which will mean no driving for a good while stopped me, I'll catch it next time round, best bargain I've seen on here yet !

Are we safe to assume it is staying in the fold ?

 

Be great to see some continued 'life with the autoshite Jag' on A daily basis including continuos improvement repairs just as previous custodians have donez.

Someone has an utter bargain.

The last two custodians had the best bargain, price of a rafuel ticket and a tank full of collection juice and The price of a ticket on the chop chop or on the Fokker.

 

Straight to £550 for 100% cjhane to win is as you say, a good deal

Liked because no chrome jaguar thing nailed to the bonnet.

A great daily for relatively short distances and great to work on.

Don't say that! My grumpy neighbour is convinced I am one. If I was one, I'd be rubbish one as I usually sell for a big loss after all costs!
