Introduced in September 1968, the Jaguar XJ6 was an automotive exemplar of the saying that a whole can be greater than the sum of its parts. There was nothing radically new about the model's four-door monocoque bodyshell, all-round independent suspension, power assisted rack and pinion steering or four-wheel disc brakes and yet it effectively moved the goalposts of luxury car design. Another of Sir William Lyons' stylistic masterpieces, its bluff radiator grille, slim-pillared glasshouse, pronounced belt line and quad headlights gave presence aplenty. Powered by a choice of 4.2 litre or 2.8 litre straight-six XK engines allied to either four-speed manual plus overdrive or automatic transmission, the XJ6 was a strong performer (though, the smaller-engined variant felt somewhat less powerful than its 1.4 litre deficit suggested). Belying the saloon's exterior dimensions, the cabin felt reassuringly cocooning thanks in part to a generous transmission tunnel. Hailed by Sir William Lyons as "the best Jaguar ever" during a series of 1969 television adverts, the first generation XJ6 remained in production
