Jaguar xj6 4,0 sport
Hi, just bought a 1996 Jag xj6 4,0 sport. I have two questions:
1: Is it belt or chain on the camshaft?
2: I want to buy the Jaguar leaper hood mascot. Does it fit best with the 5" or 7", and did any of the x300 come original with the leaper? Anyone who has a DIY where to drill holes in the hood, and anyone who can recommend a place to buy it on the internet? I looked on some different ones at ebay.co.uk but i don`t know witch one to buy.
Cheers

Here is the link to the leaper one ebay seller think was the best for my car:

1) Chain
2) The USA market X300s came with the leaper as standard equipment. I suggest exploring that avenue for a replacement.
Funny how individual tastes vary. I don't like the leaper at all ! If my Jag ever goes in for body repairs or a repaint I'll ask that it be removed :-)

Is it anyone here who can tell me if the USA market X300s came with 5" or 7" leaper? And do anyone here have a link to one that fit good on my car?

The USA cars came withe the largest leaper available. I thought it was 9", but I don't think they offer a 9", so it's 7". If you will fit a leaper, I'd suggest being absolutely certain to do it in the right place. I've seen people fit them too far back on the hood which just looks silly.

I just measured mine. The total length is about 8" overall. The leaping Jaguar itself is about 6".
Just call up your local Jag dealer and ask them to order a leaper as fitted to the USA market X300s. Or, look for a USA vender selling used X300 parts on Ebay...or similar.
Or, go to the JDHT webpage and order one that way.
