SR, I don't mean to rain on your parade, but according to Kelley Blue Book, a
1988 XJ40 is only worth $2,150 USD and that is if it is in EXCELLENT (exceptional -near show room) condition. By the way, Jaguar only made two US models, a VanDen Plas and a Sovereign. There was no base model made for the US. Although there might have been one in Canada. Even $6,500 Canadian dollars ($5,150USD) is a bit high.Four years ago, I bought my 1988 XJ40 in EXCELLENT condition with 150,000 miles (241,000 Km) for $1900 USD. Two years ago, my friend bought his 1992 XJ40, again in excellent shape with 125,000 miles for $2,500.
If your question is whether to buy the car or not, the best thing to do is go to:

Dog of a model and far too expensive. Try and find a 90's model with the 4 litre.

That sounds expensive compared with UK prices.
As far as what goes wrong at that mileage is concerned :- The engine is just about run in, they go for ever.
1 Diff bearings. Pinion bearings in mine, not too difficult to change. 2 Switches on the hydraulic accumulator leak. A 10 cent 'o' ring but a $150 unrepairable switch. 3 ABS warning light stays on. Dodgy contacts on or in the over voltage relay, the blue one in the boot (trunk)Thank you very much for your replies - very much appreciated. SR
