2001 Jaguar Vanden Plas Sc Supercharged Sedan 4-door 4.0l Low Miles & Rare on 2040-cars
Holland, Michigan, United States
|
Check out this LOW MILEAGE & RARE SUPERCHARGED Jaguar XJ8!!!! According to Wikipedia, only 788 of the Supercharged VandenPlas XJ8's were produced from 1997-2003, so this is a VERY RARE Jag! See article at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaguar_XJ_(X308). The Platinum Silver exterior looks beautiful and the Charcoal Black leather interior is very clean! There are signs of some paintwork (few small areas of clear coat flaking on the passenger side; very minimal, but a slight shade difference in paint hue). The seats show signs of aging but are not torn. Headliner is sagging in areas, but still intact. All 370 horsepower of the 4.0 liter V8 in this Cat purr, and the automatic transmission shifts smooth and strong! Every amenity works like it should, including front and rear heated seats, ice cold air conditioning, power locks, power windows, remote entry, cruise control, tilt/telescoping steering wheel, power seats and power moon roof. A great matched set of Continentals are wrapped around very cool aftermarket 17" rims. The car runs, drives and handles just like a Jag with only 70,000 miles would!

Told by those in the know that likely culprit is wheel speed sensor, and being intermittent, probably needs cleaning. Check out the value in this car: KBB suggested price is $18,000! Original MSRP was $85,000!

Jaguar producing short film starring Damian Lewis from Homeland [w/video]
Fri, 30 Nov 2012Jaguar is working up a short film to coincide with the US debut of the company's new F-Type. Desire will feature actor Damian Lewis in the lead role opposite Jordi Molla as the main villain in the story. The whole of the action will take place against the picturesque backdrop of the Chilean desert with filming starting early next month. According to Jaguar, the story will follow Lewis as he plays Clark, a man who delivers cars for living. Things get exciting when he crosses paths with a young woman played by Shannyn Sossamon.
With music by Lana Del Rey and some serious production value, Desire sounds keen to take its place among great automotive advertising short films like the BMW Driver series. Jaguar has released a quick teaser, which you can check out by heading over to the F-Type site. You may also take a peek at the full press release below for more information. Expect to see the film debut early next year.
Jaguar Land Rover opens first overseas factory in China
Wed, 22 Oct 2014Anyone who's a car fan knows that Jaguar and Land Rover cars and trucks all come from the UK. And while we don't doubt that will remain true for the most part, it won't be an absolute truth for long, as the British automaker has just opened its first factory overseas.
Its new plant in Changshu, China, is the result of a $1.8-billion joint venture between JLR and local automaker Chery. It covers some 4.3-million square feet and will, once at peak capacity, produce 130,000 units specifically for the Chinese market, where JLR sells over 100,000 vehicles each year to make it the company's single largest market worldwide.
Production at what's officially known as the Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Company will start with the Evoque, of which one in five globally are currently sold in China. Production will eventually encompass three models. We already know that the Discovery Sport will be next, but the third model line has yet to be announced. JLR has confirmed, however, that the Changshu plant will produce unique models and derivatives specifically for the Chinese market, so we wouldn't be surprised to see a long-wheelbase version of the forthcoming XE or next-generation XF assembled there to satisfy local tastes.
Watch the trailer for Jaguar's short film staring the F-Type and Damian Lewis
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Jaguar continues to think well outside of the box when it comes to marketing it's new F-Type, now furthering plans for a short film which highlights the sexy roadster. Desire, featuring Damian Lewis (star of the hit series Homeland), Jordi Mollà (unforgettable in Bad Boys II) and Shannyn Sossamon (that girl you had a crush on for like a month in 2002 after you rented A Knight's Tale), Jaguar is clearly pulling out all the stops for this one. Well, nearly all the stops anyway - the "Ridley Scott Associates" billing isn't quite the same has having the man himself, if we're splitting hairs.
The short video below is still just a trailer for Desire - the full film will make its debut sometime in April, we're told. The sketched out plotlines tell us that Lewis' character Clark, "...delivers cars for a living, running into trouble after a chance encounter with a mysterious, young woman (Sossamon) in the middle of a lawless desert." The car looks good, at any rate.
Call us crazy, but the Desire trailer feels an awful lot like a spoof on the cool-but-overly-serious short films that BMW has done in this vein, already. Maybe we're just being cynical? Tell us what you think in comments after watching the clip.
