Welcome to the Forums.

Maybe a typo, as the 4.2l inline six Cylinder engine would make it an XJ6, 4 Door Sedan, or a rare 2 Door Coupe.

Good luck.

Thank you ElinorB.

I look forward to interacting with you.
In the meantime assist to link me up with 1976 Jaguar XJS Gearbox advise. Which are best replacement options?
Best regards.
Erastus

Welcome to the forums Erastus,

Good to have you with us.

I can see you've already found your way to the XJS forum so there's no need for a link to it from me. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Please add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

I see from you recent post and photo in XJS forum it's definitely an XJ-S. Discussion appears to be continuing about the non-standard engine and your options for a transmission.
