I am selling this car for my customer/friend. I own the restoration shop that did the paint/bodywork. I can tell you the car is in fantastic driving condition. I do not think the car has many miles on it since restoration was complete.
Beautiful example of a 1967 Jaguar XKE Series One Roadster. I have own this E-Type for approximately five years when I purchased it from the previous owner who had it in his possession for over twenty years, the last six of which were spent completely restoring the car. As you can see in the photos the car was completely disassembled, media blasted and restored on a rotisserie. Any rusted metal was replaced and all systems refurbished, replaced, or rebuilt. This e-type was painted with Deltron DBW 75390 SC bright red. The biscuit colored interior was replaced complete, including leather seats and armrests. A new top was also installed. The 4.2 liter engine, Engine # 7E 12604-9, which is a matching number, was completely rebuilt, to include Stellite valves seats for use of unleaded gas. Brake cylinders and SU's were all rebuilt, stainless steel exhaust installed. Interior chrome trim was replated as neccessary.
Upon receiving delivery of this 67 Jaguar all the following had been performed by Donovan Motorcar Service (Jaguar Specialists in service and restoration) in Lenox, Mass.; installed new temperature switch, new fuel pump, fuel tank cleaned and new screen on pick up tube, new bonnet subframe (painted and color matched) new radiator and header tank, install upper and lower ball joints, steering rack removed, disassembled steering column and new bushings installed, distributor removed and set up on distributor machine to adjust dwell, new battery, complete tune up.
The final upgrade came with the addition of four Dayton chrome wire wheels, 6 inch curley hubs with Pirelli P4000 205/70 ZR 15 SuperTouring tires. The original rims will be included, they were mismatched rims with red line bias ply tires installed.
The paint and the overall condition of this vehicle is outstanding as the photos show. The paint has been polished to a mirror like prefection, all lines are perfect. No were no corners cut in thr restoration of this car inside or out. As beautiful as this jag is from the outside it is an extreme pleasure to drive it. It starts flawlessly and the engine has incredible torque. The handling is incredible with the insatllation of the Pirellis. An appraisal was performed for insurance purposes in Nov. 2009. The appraisal came in at $91,500, with summation: ".Fine, well restored, or a combination of superior restoration and excellent original. Also, an extremely well maintained original showing very minimal wear." Again only for insurance was the appraisal done and this not the number that the reserve is established to. Appraisal will be included with sale.

Top Gear caught filming Best of British near Buckingham Palace
Mon, 24 Jun 2013YouTuber and car-fan extraordinaire Shmee probably had very little trouble tracking down the Top Gear film crew recently, as the group was putting together an episode that could accurately be described as "excessive." With its flag-waving (literally) Best of British theme, the TG guys gathered a jaw-dropping array of British cars, and parked them all right in front of Buckingham Palace to make extra sure that the point was driven home.
Top Gear hosts Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May were outfitted with a trio of Jaguar F-Types festooned with gigantic Union Jacks, with which to survey the landscape of British motoring glory. In the video below, you'll see that this includes any number of Mini, Aston Martin, Lotus, McLaren, Land Rover, Bentley and Rolls-Royce models (just to name a few), as well as a healthy dose of weird stuff that most people would never guess at being built in the UK. The lawnmowers and military vehicles are especially cool.
Road & Track names its 2013 Performance Car of the Year
Thu, 14 Nov 2013Road & Track recently staged its first annual Performance Car of the Year test, pitting 13 new and updated performance cars against each other on track, then graduating the top six to a road test before picking a winner. Additionally, the magazine staff picked the best automobiles of the year in eight categories.
But first, let's cover the PCotY segment. Here's the list of cars brought to the comparison test: Audi R8 V10 Plus; BMW 435i; BMW M6 Competition Package; Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z51; Ferrari F12 Berlinetta; Ford Fiesta ST; Jaguar F-Type V8 S; Jaguar XFR-S; Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S-Model Wagon; Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series; Mini John Cooper Works GP; Nissan GT-R Track Edition; and Porsche Cayman S.
To find out the results of the comparison, head over to Road & Track's website or check the press release below, where you'll also find the magazine's top-rated vehicles in eight categories. Want more? Head over to the 2013 PCotY hub. But before you do that, take a stab at guessing the winner of PCotY (we'll give you one hint: it isn't a Porsche).
2014 Jaguar XFR-S Sportbrake
Tue, 17 Jun 2014We'd consider giving up vital organs for the opportunity to drive any number of vehicles on the Nürburgring: supercars, racecars, track cars, even hot hatches... but a station wagon? That might not seem like a top choice at first blush, but this is no ordinary wagon. This is the Jaguar XFR-S Sportbrake.
Now if that name leaves you scratching your head, there are several good reasons for that - not least of which is the unfortunate reality that, unlike so many performance-oriented crossovers and sport-utes, the Sportbrake is not offered in North America. But suppose it were, or that weren't a factor. You'd likely still be left wondering how the name Jaguar ended up on a station wagon in the first place, and how that machine wound up bearing the letters R-S, the suffix affixed only to Coventry's most hardcore performance models.
Our brief story goes back a little over two years to when Jaguar revealed the XF Sportbrake at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, giving its mid-level sedan an elongated roof and added cargo capacity. The Sportbrake may not be the first wagon to wear the Leaping Cat badge, but following the lamentable X-Type Sportwagon, it could be argued that the XF is the first authentic Jag estate.
