1970 Jaguar E-type (XKE) coupe. The car has 4.2L engine with 4
speed manual transmission, Air Conditioning Triplex Electrically Heated back glass, and nice Chrome Wire Wheels.
It is a Light Blue Car with Dark Blue Interior. It is all matching numbers. I have the Jaguar Heritage
Certificate that states the Following:
Date of Manufacture 8 December 1969
Transmission Manual
Exterior Paint Colour Light Blue
Interior Trim Colour Dark Blue
Date of Dispatch 19 December 1969
The original owner was a lady who didn’t drive it much and kept having trouble with the carbs. She traded it in
1973 for a MGB GT. The 2nd owner bought it in 1973 from the dealer and Rarely used the car. He had the car
striped to bare metal in 1974 and had the car repainted in the factory color. Apparently the original owner would
park the car under a shade tree at work and the tree sap etched the paint to a point the 2nd owner had it
repainted. After painting the car he kept the car rust proofed with oil in all the seams, the doors, the Bonnet,
the trunk, Rockers, the rear quarters everything. The car was parked in 1986 inside his garage with a sheet over
it with only 35,570 miles on the odometer. He would put some Marvel Mystery oil in the cylinders from time to time
but never started car. I bought the car from the 2nd owner. It is straight out of storage with all the dust just
the way I found it. The car currently has a header but it has the original manifolds and shield . It also has the
original owner’s manual, jack, hammer, and knock off tool. I even have a speeding ticket the previous owner got
in 1975! I have not tried to start car but the motor does turn over. The car is totally rust free and has never
been wrecked.

Jaguar's Callum refutes two XJ bodystyle rumor
Wed, 01 May 2013Not long ago, we relayed word from Edmunds that Jaguar was planning to split its next-generation XJ sedan into two bodystyles - one model that continued the ambitious design approach fostered with the current X351-based model, and another, more upright model to better appeal to China's conservative design sensibilities.
We expressed some cynicism in the idea, noting that such a strategy "might catch more profits for the marque, but it might also represent a setback to design head Ian Callum's vision for a thoroughly modern Jaguar portfolio." Callum has been quite insistent in his belief that Jag needs to be a forward-thinking brand in terms of design, and the two-model strategy seemed to conflict with that idea. We tried to get some comment from Callum at that time, but were unable to reach him.
As it turns out, our cynicism was well-placed. Autocar says that while the next XJ will continue to have two wheelbases, Callum has denied the two-model talk, saying flatly: "I can't see us doing two bodystyles. The cost would be enormous and the message inconsistent. You have to believe in what you produce and to do two bodystyles would undermine that."
2014 Jaguar XKR-S GT claws at the driving enthusiast in us
Wed, 27 Mar 2013If you still find yourself coming up a few seconds short per lap in your Jaguar XKR-S, the British automaker has introduced the XKR-S GT - a cat specifically tuned for the racing circuit - at the New York Auto Show.
While Jaguar has left the supercharged 5.0-liter V8 unchanged (550 horsepower and 502 pound-feet of torque), it has tuned and tweaked all the items that really make cars go quicker on the track (e.g. suspension, aerodynamics, contact patches, brakes). A once-over reveals upgraded go-fast goodies including a new ventilated hood, extended wheel arch spats, reworked front end with a bespoke front splitter and canards, a massive rear wing, height-adjustable adaptive dampers, active exhaust, carbon-ceramic brakes and sticky Pirelli Corsa tires. Try as we might, the driver in us can't find anything we not to like about this enthusiast-tuned coupe.
Of course all of the upgraded XK goodness doesn't come easy, or cheap. Jaguar will limit North American sales to just 30 units and price each at $174,000. Learn all the juicy details in the official press release below.
Motor Trend pits Aston V12 Vantage S against Jaguar XKR-S GT in battle of the Brits
Fri, 20 Dec 2013With the recent increase in higher-performance versions of already high-performance vehicles, like Mercedes-Benz and its AMG Black Series, the public is now gaining even greater access to speed and maneuverability. Two of the most recent sports cars to get their wicks turned up include the Jaguar XKR-S GT and the Aston Martin V12 Vantage S.
Both of these cars are the pinnacles of their lines, with the Jag lording over the XKR-S, XKR and XK while the Aston rules over the standard V8 Vantage S and V8 Vantage. Motor Trend has opted to pit the two rivals together for some thorough testing, and it just happened to bring along a few video cameras to capture all the action.
