Used car private sales are what ever the two parties agree upon. I would start by checking the KBB.com and EDMUNDS.com sites for the big picture. I also 'watch' a number of eBay offers to keep abreast of what things are really selling, or not selling for. A high percentage of the eBay offers are never completed because of too high minimum bids.
Good luck! Hope things work out for you. The coupes are a little more rare and should attract some interest.

You should consider replacing the headliner. I have not done this on a Jag, but have on other cars and it is easily a DIY project with a small cost. Foam-backed fabric can be had at the local cloth store/sewing center, along with spray glue.
It is a little time intensive. You have to pull out the top trim covers all the way around, but not too difficult.
A new headliner done yourself will add $$ to the sale. I walked away from an XJ with a sagging top even tho I knew it was easy to fix. Made me question what else they had neglected.
Rev. Sam has a video on changing the A-post cloth and the process is the same...just on a larger piece of board.
