I BOUGHT THIS ONE OWNER CALIFORNIA CLASSIC IN MARCH 2004. IT HAD BEEN GARAGED IN PALM DESERT AND NOT STARTED FOR THE PREVIOUS 5 YEARS. IT WAS SHIPPED TO TEXAS AND HAS BEEN GARAGED, BUT STARTED AND DRIVEN SINCE. THE FUEL SYSTEM WAS FLUSHED AND THE CAR STARTED IMMEDIATELY WITH THE AID OF A NEW BATTERY. THE ENGINE IS STRONG AND THE CAR HAS BEEN DRIVEN UP TO 75 MPH WITH LOTS OF HEAD ROOM LEFT TO EXPLORE. THE FOLLOWING HAVE BEEN REPLACED: BATTERY, 4 NEW TIRES,NEW RIGHT POWER STEERING HOSE, SHOCK ABSORBER, SPARK PLUGS, FUEL PUMP AND FILTER, NEW OLD STOCK MUFFLER WITH 4 TUNED EXHAUST PIPES, RADIATOR CORE, RADIATOR FAN RELAY. THE FAN RELAY FAILED TO CORRECT AN OVERHEATING PROBLEM, SO THE FANS HAVE BEEN WIRED DIRECTLY TO THE IGNITION SWITCH SO THAT THEY TURN ON IMMEDIATELY WHEN THE KEY IS TURNED. PROBLEM SOLVED. ALSO PURCHASED ON EBAY WERE AN EXTRA SET OF RADIATOR FANS, SET OF FOUR STROMBERG CARBURETORS, A HOSE KIT - ALL OF WHICH WILL BE INCLUDED ALONG WITH A COLLECTION OF ROCK AND BLUES EIGHT TRACK TAPES WHICH CAN BE ENJOYED ON THE SOUND SYSTEM WHICH INCLUDES AM-FM RADIO AS WELL! JOURNEY BACK IN TIME IN THIS GORGEOUS EXAMPLE OF SENSUOUS STYLING WITH A CLASSIC ROCK COLLECTION OF TAPES. I ALSO HAVE TWO SERVICE RECORDS FROM EDMUND'S JAGUAR/ROLLS ROYCE WHICH SHOW THE LOW MILEAGE OF LESS THAN 25,000 WHEN LAST SERVICED BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER IN 1998. IT WILL NEED SOME REPLACEMENT OF WINDOW GUIDES, SEALS, AND PERHAPS MORE HOSES. IT COULD BE RESTORED TO SHOW CONDITION IF DESIRED. IT WAS NOT SMOKED IN BY ME, BUT IT MAY HAVE BEEN IN THE LONG AGO PAST. THERE IS NO ODOR, BUT PERHAPS SOME GRIME ON THE SEATS? FOR SERIOUS INQUIRIES, I WILL BE HAPPY TO DISCUSS THE CONDITION OF THIS VEHICLE TO THE BEST OF MY PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE.

Jaguar 3 Series-fighter to spawn coupe, wagon
Wed, 25 Sep 2013With its sights set on the BMW 3 Series, Jaguar could be planning a full range of models for its upcoming entry-level car - possibly called the XS. We've already seen spy shots of the four-door version of this all-aluminum baby Jag, but according to Auto Express, the automaker will also offer the car in coupe and wagon variants.
The XS sedan should hit the market in 2015, and the coupe and wagon models are expected soon after that. Speaking with Jag's global brand director Adrian Hallmark, AE says that the XS will be focused on styling with a design similar to the recently introduced C-X17 crossover concept. Hallmark also said that the addition of the XS lineup could help Jaguar double its sales, which were at 357,773 global units in 2012. Head on over to Auto Express for some speculative renderings of the XS coupe and wagon.
Jaguar F-Type greets US, shows off range of personalization
Thu, 29 Nov 2012While the debut of the XFR-S is likely fresh on everyone's minds and browser windows, the other big story of late at Jaguar is the F-Type coupe and convertible. Originally unveiled in Paris, the LA show was the first opportunity that the sub-XK performance machine will be seen Stateside. However, it was not just the same news that we first heard in Paris, as Jaguar used LA to showcase its newly available "Black" design pack.
This styling package includes gloss black finishes for the grill surround, side vents, a flat-bottomed sport steering wheel, gloss black interior touches, and instrument panel rings. This package is available with Ultimate Black, Polaris White, Italian Racing Red, Rhodium Silver, Grey and Firesand (seen above) body colors.
The Black pack can be had on either the 3.0-liter supercharged V6 model, or the 5.0-liter supercharged V8 version. Specific additional "Black" tweaks are available based on which derivative you select. Specifically, a gloss-black rear valence is a V6-only modification.
Jaguar bringing all-wheel-drive F-Type to LA Auto Show [w/video]
Thu, 06 Nov 2014Jaguar's big splash at last year's Los Angeles Auto Show was showing off the slinky F-Type Coupe; perhaps one of the loveliest car shapes on the road today. This year the company won't have a show-stopping new design to offer, but the news that all-wheel drive is coming to the F-Type range is, nevertheless, pretty spectacular.
Mixed in with news about a technical partnership between Jaguar and the Bloodhound SSC World Land Speed Record program, the British brand announced this morning that it will show the first AWD F-Type Coupe at the 2014 LA show later this month.
Jaguar tells us that the sure-footed cat, in AWD F-Type R Coupe form, will run from 0-60 miles per hour in just 3.9 seconds, with a limited top speed of 186 mph.
