What a find! But if I remember correctly you're in the 7th grade. This would probably be your first car. Most first cars do not last long as your are just learning to drive. This car is a classic and you might want to save it for your second car and plan on taking this one to college. https://classiccars.com/listings/find/1987/jaguar/xj6
I would explain this to grand dad and ask if he has a car more fit for a first car and not as expensive to repair and find parts for. Preferably one that you can get parts for at your local auto zone. Maybe a cheaper Ford or Chevy that can take the inevitable dings that you will get while learning.
I made this mistake and gave a 1993 Dodge Stealth https://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://onegrandcars.com/wp-content/uploads/images/1993_Dodge_Stealth_4511.jpg&imgrefurl=http://onegrandcars.com/1993-dodge-stealth/&h=456&w=586&tbnid=-u5Yk8xfiFbndM:&tbnh=155&tbnw=200&docid=M-nfG0CyY0nOCM&itg=1&client=safari&usg=__xIy_F9bBVp74c763zeq4vjyyulM=&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjo-7vk29_PAhVCzz4KHfImBKMQ_B0IfTAK&ei=GqcDWOiGKsKe-wHyzZCYCg

Well he didn't need a car that would do 155 mph. He still does work for me and is now doing phone repair as his main money making endeavor and sure wishes he hadn't torn that car up now that he's 24.

And yes, he did take it up to 155 MPH except he did it on old tires not built to take that speed and is very lucky to be alive.

BTW - just three days ago I wrote a letter to the local municipal judge ( a friend of mine), to try to help him get his drivers license back after he lost it for to many speeding tickets
