Andy's 1972 Jag XJ6 | EP4 Owner's Club

[@warrenbrenner4972]

When I was 15 my neighbor gave me a ride in his new 1971 XJ6 red with black leather. Gorgeous!!! Best ride ever!

[@ukrestorevival]

Wow, I bet! Did that start the love of cara for you?

Good review of the series 1 Jag lovely colour combination , me late dad had one back in the 70's for 8 years , XOX186 J was the reg .

[@ukrestorevival]

Thanks very much! Fantastic cars aren't they! Funny isn't it, you can always remember the reg of cars your love 😅

[@JoshMcCallion]

Another great video mate! This series is brilliant already!

[@ukrestorevival]

Thank you buddy!❤️ Happy new year! Looking forward to watching your journey too 🙌

[@paulgardner9763]

Lovely car, well done Dave and Andy :)

[@ukrestorevival]

Agreed! It's been lovingly looked after. Thanks for your comment 😊 just published a new video (Triumph TR6)!

[@jamessmith-on3jf]

What a beautiful Jag the series 1 XJ is my favourite classic. I just love them, I will need to build a garage before I buy one. I will just dream for the time being.

[@ukrestorevival]

Fantastic cars aren't they! Such character sitting in and driving. Imagine opening the garage door and seeing that?! It'll definitely be worth it - stick in there! 😊

[@JonDingle]

That beautiful Jaguar is the only car worth having on his drive in my opinion. I was 8yrs old when my dad bought a three year old BRG Jaguar 420G. Andfrom that very day to 50years later I have a deep and unbreakable love of Jaguar cars up until the recent ones which I am not particularly keen on. Today, I own a Series 2, 4.2L XJ6 and a 3.2L XJ8 V8 (obviously). I have owned many Jag's including two V12 XJS's.

[@ukrestorevival]

It's a very special car indeed!🥰 That's what I've loved about getting to know the Jag community... Many owners now we're exposed at a young age and have loved them ever since! Can definitely agree, there's something really special sitting in a Jag. Perhaps I'll come and film some of your jags?! 🙌

[@Z06-viper]

They discontinued the xk 4.2 in jaguar production cars in 1987. The xk motor went from 1948-1987. They still used the xk motors in fire trucks and other utility vehicles after 87.

[@ukrestorevival]

Ah I see! Thanks for that! Was counting on someone knowing better than me 👍

[@russellmalone3532]

It actually carried on I believe in Daimler models and they were made for military applications until 1992 I think

[@ukrestorevival]

Yes I think you're probably right! Real character before commercials became more important in cars...

[@lestrem11]

BRG THE colour to have in an ‘old’ Jag.

[@ukrestorevival]

Absolutely AGREE! Proper classic Jaaag.

[@johnmoruzzi7236]

These were gorgeous in Regency Red… a sort of maroon colour….

[@ukrestorevival]

Very true! Or is it so classy it looks good in very colour?🤔 For example, black would be super mafia boss, silver would be a presidential vehicle.... Just thinking out loud

[@AverageJoe2020]

They called it 'Jaguar green'.

[@ukrestorevival]

Not British Racing Green? 🤔

[@krismilo8983]

Make sure the drains holes in the petrol cap recesses are clear.. or the tanks can fill up with water ( as I found out!) Great cars . I love my S1

[@ukrestorevival]

Very good... Thanks! Will pass that on to owner Andy 😀

[@citizenx2422]

For a second, I thought you were going to close the bonnet FROM THE SIDE! But you didn't, so now I'm relieved. Lovely car obviously. I've had Series 1 sixes and a Series 1 twelve. My first one, a brown XJ6 also had a Webasto sunroof. Don't you find it noisy?

[@ukrestorevival]

Ha! Nope thankfully not 😅 It's a lovely beast... Sitting in it and driving, I love the sound of the flat six, it's a gentle rumble when you put your foot down. Andy the owner also loves the sound too!

[@andytempleman4893]

Last 4.2 XK engine was used in the 1992 Daimler DS420 limousine.

[@ukrestorevival]

Interesting! Thanks bud 👍

[@josephwhyman9515]

Great video - and lovely Jaguar. Owning a 6.75 litre Rolls Royce Silver Spirit I know what he means about being unable to pass petrol stations! Is she garaged or does she remain on the drive shown. Cars of that size don’t tend to fit in most UK garages!

[@ukrestorevival]

Thanks very much! 😊 Yep, she's definitely thirsty! 😂 Nope, she's outside at the mo! Andy is looking to move where she'll be garaged soon enough 🙌

[@nigelbond4056]

I sold my 1971 series 1 XJ6 4.2 last year, I’m still distraught 🥹

[@ukrestorevival]

Oh man! Sorry to hear that 😞 perhaps keep an eye on the classifieds!?

[@nigelbond4056]

@ sadly, it was the car my dad bought new in 1971. I’d love another but that particular car was special 🥲

[@ukrestorevival]

Ah I can understand that. Well hopefully you can make your own memories with another car!? On a separate note, I have an episode coming up with a guy and a Jag he owns, that used to be his granddad's he bought from new! Hopefully that will resonate with you 😊 make sure you're subscribed 🙌

[@Team33Team33]

Hope you paid for his petrol bill to take you out for your YT channel.

[@ukrestorevival]

🤣🤣 he really should have ha!

[@Team33Team33]

@@ukrestorevival So WHO paid ?

[@ukrestorevival]

@Team33Team33 .....Andy 🤐🤫

[@Team33Team33]

@@ukrestorevival So Andy owns the Jag You filmed and are making money off on your YT channel and you let HIM pay for the petrol. Not nice. Unless I don't understand a word you say becaus you seem to be happy he did and you didn't.

[@ukrestorevival]

@Team33Team33 I'm not making any money from YT, I can assure you 🤣 I drove 1hr 30 mins to film him, he paid for petrol, we're all good, and my conscience is clear 😊 Appreciate your concern though - I bought Andy a gift afterwards to say thanks for hosting me
