The best of both worlds.  British class, lays rubber in third gear. 

A very careful, documented conversion, no cutting or welding, no expense spared ($32,153). 

The original 4.2L engine and 4 sp transmission come with the car should you ever want to return to original.  The original engine was completely rebuilt and run for 15k miles before storing it. 

The second owner (a cable CEO) purchased the car at 40k miles and converted it.  I’m the third owner.  76,378 total California miles on the car.

Repainted once with great care, body and chrome an 8.5-9.0 overall.  Body has never been hit.  Zero rust, hasn’t been driven on a wet road since I bought it.   

New interior.  Modern Dunlop wheels; tires very good (no visible wear, some light checking). 

What’s wrong with the car:  Wipers don’t work.  Speedometer needle wavers, should be rebuilt.  A small (1/2”) ding in the bonnet.    A short (1/2”) tear in the top repaired from the inside -- top is otherwise excellent, with a clear and unscratched backlight.  

School tuitions force sale.  An immaculate, reliable and immensely enjoyable car.  Unbelievable acceleration.  You will not be disappointed. 

Cash or bank wire only.  No dealers, please.

Are you the soon-to-be-revealed Jaguar CUV concept?

Fri, 06 Sep 2013

Following the teaser of the Jaguar CX-17 Concept released last weekend, the first official image of the Jaguar crossover concept appears to have hit the Internet ahead of its introduction at the Frankfurt Motor Show.
Assuming this is the real deal, the tall, upright front end removes any doubt that this is anything but a preview for the upcoming Jaguar crossover, which will likely be called either the XQ or the Q-Series. Reports suggest that Jag's first-ever CUV is likely to go into production in 2016, and it will bring with it the option for a Jaguar-developed four-cylinder engine replacing the current mills still sourced from former parent Ford.

Jaguar XE teased in new video, will debut September 8

Fri, 05 Sep 2014

Outside of a major auto show, this might be one of the best times of the year for new car debuts, and we couldn't be more excited. Just this week, the low-slung face of the next-generation Mazda MX-5 Miata showed itself to the world, and Land Rover debuted its new Discovery Sport. Plus, there's a double-whammy of launches on the imminent horizon with the unveilings of the Jaguar XE on September 8 and the Mercedes-AMG GT on September 9.
Jag is teasing the launch of its latest midsize luxury sedan with a few glimpses on video. It's strangely secretive, given the fact that Jaguar showed the XE's face completely un-camouflaged a few weeks ago. Regardless, it's quite a looker up front with a sleeker take on the shape of the larger XF.
Because of the way Jaguar is slowly leaking details about the XE, there are a few other things we already know about this new cat, too. It rides on a monocoque chassis made from over 75 percent aluminum, and the automaker is promising 75 miles per gallon fuel economy on the more lenient European cycle for at least one engine in the lineup.

Playmate of the Year Raquel Pomplun gets a Jaguar F-Type

Sun, 12 May 2013

The Jaguar F-Type is slinking its way into vastly divergent corners of the celebrity world. Lana del Rey is its songstress, Englishman-playing-American-terrorist Damien Lewis lead its cinematic debut in Desire, San Francisco quarterback Colin Kaepernick gets the athletic endorsement, and now it's just been driven behind the "Adults Only" doors at the Playboy Mansion: Raquel Pomplun was gifted a year's use of an F-Type for being named 2013 Playmate of the Year.
There's a video below of Pomplun and her F-Type getting 'camera ready,' and a press release below that in case you want to, you know, "read the article."
