The answer here is "depends". It depends on the market. For the US, S3
XJ6's where offered through 87, with the XJ40 replacing it for the
88 model year. There are some differences between the US spec 86 and 87
cars.
Other markets had the S3 XJ6 replaced by the XJ40 (and maybe offered
side by side in some) for the 87 model year. This is only for the
six cylinder. The Series III body shell was built well in to the 90's,
the later years being only in XJ12 guise, which the US did not get.
