Thanks Steve, glad you like the Jag.

Its a 6.0 litre so becoming quite rare these days.

Compared to the SL which is a bit of a brute (nice brute of course!) the Jag is a bit more of an elegant lady!!

Thanks for your message

Chris

Very nice Sir!  6.0L - when did they finish those?  V8 started at 3.8 I believe then 4.2 before going up to 5.0L as mine is.  Was the 6.0L the V11?

Hi Allan,

Thanks for your message.

The 6.0 is a V12 and was introduced to take over from the 5.3 V12. Production of the 6.0 was from around 1992/3 through to the end of production in 1996 and coincided with the introduction of the full facelift version and became the only V12 XJS available. The other models available were the 4.0 & 3.6, both of which I believe were the straight 6 cylinder engine.

Anyway, thanks for your message and I'm glad you like the picture. 

Thanks for letting me join. Traveled 10 hours to get this beauty to take it back up north to Scotland a week ago. Needs a few things fixed before next summer. My first classic car. 

Hi Newbie here. Here are some photos of Florence the A6. She is my first Audi 😀

Welcome to the forum ! Looks great, I agree with Steve Q, interior colour makes a big difference to black like mine!

Thanks, glad you like it, we love it too😊 we specked that ourselves, Audi kept asking us are we sure? .. we replied yep 😊

I bought mine used so was more focused on overall condition and main specification, trim level etc .

It definitely makes a big difference to the feeling the inside in that interior shade!

I don’t know, but they did.. then I realised I’d forgotten the mud flaps and they said it’s too late to add anything to the order, we were still in the showroom after just placing the order… I still to this day don’t understand that, but hey, the car looks better without them 😊

I agree, the grey trim really brightens the interior 😊

Probably too much hassle to the sales guy to amend the order system 🤔😐😂

Hi all, just joined up today. Here's my new machine. I originally had a 2014 A3 1.6 S-Line, then a 2014 A4 TDI. But this little pocket rocket is a drastic improvement. 2016 A3 SPORT 184 - perfect for overtaking muppet drivers on the Irish roads here!!

Its a cracking motor - thanks for pici's and enjoy your ownership.

  Bit cold today

Looks stunning 🙂👍

Thanks Steve! I spend a lot of time cleaning it as i hate to see it dirty. Possibly the most i've ever hoovered out a car several times that didn't need it. Can't stop or help myself i just love it. Currently signed off work with a trapped nerve in my neck so cleaning can take a while. Took me 3 hours the other day just for a detailing quick spray and wipe. Luckily i have all the time i need currently

Hi all,
