The XJ6 is indeed a beautiful car - the best of the xj6's in my opinion, and they are extremely inexpensive. However, most of them have an aweful 3 speed auto BW transmission. If it's not to be driven in a sporting fashion, it will probably be fine. There are people who have put other transmissions in, even other engines, but I like the Jag 4.2 6cyl.
If gas economy is not super important, also consider the XJS. I personally like it styling and used to have one (Till I parted with it when getting an E-type). The XJS has a good GM Turbohydromatic transmission. It is a nice solid car with a very low driving position. The V12 is mighty fine.
