Jaguar XJ Series 2

Automobiles

The Jaguar XJ Series 2 is the second generation of the Jaguar XJ luxury saloon, sold from late 1973 until 1979. It kept the 4.2 litre straight-six XJ6 and the 5.3 litre V12 XJ12, and from 1975 added a 3.4 litre six. It was visibly different from the Series 1 through raised front bumpers to meet United States crash rules, a smaller grille and a simpler heating and air conditioning system. The standard wheelbase saloon was dropped in 1974, while a short wheelbase two-door coupe was sold from 1975 to 1978. The Series 2 was the last XJ shaped with direct input from Sir William Lyons before he retired. Production totalled 91,227 cars, 14,226 of them with the V12.
