2003 Jaguar Vanden Plas Sc Supercharged Sedan 4-door 4.0l on 2040-cars
Holland, Michigan, United States
|
Supercharged Jaguar! Rare and Ready! This XJ Super 8 Vanden Plas is dressed in Westminster Blue and Ivory Leather and is very clean! The exterior has a great shine, and does have one small dent, a few door dings, and a puncture in the rear bumper. The interior is very clean with less than average wear. The factory 17" alloy wheels are nearly perfect and the fully matched set of tires have excellent tread. The 4.0 Supercharged 32 Valve V8 pushes 370 hp and purrs just like a Cat! The Automatic transmission shifts strong and sure. The "Super" in this car not only includes the drivetrain, but also how enjoyable this car is to drive! Everything mechanical is as good as it gets, with only one exception and that is a worn strut mount that is a little noisy over bumps. Being a Jag, it is loaded with amenities such as power windows, power locks, power two-way moon roof, heated front & rear leather seats, front & rear fog lamps, anti-lock brakes, front & side airbags, remote entry, owner's manual and more! Everything works on this Cool Cat! According to Wikipedia, there were only 788 total Supercharged Vanden Plas XJ8's made between 1997 - 2003, and this is the last year of this production model. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaguar_XJ_(X308) If this were not enough to get your heart pumping, this XJ has a clean CarFax (no accidents) and the same owner since 35,310 miles. Need more motivation? Bluebook value of this car is $12,500!!!!! See http://www.kbb.com/jaguar/xj-series/2003-jaguar-xj-series/xj-super-sedan-4d/?vehicleid=2593&intent=buy-used&mileage=140000 This is a RARE opportunity to own a classic Supercharged Jaguar!

This Jaguar is also for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early if it sells. I am also open to Buy It Now offers. I do accept trades and trade-ins. I am particularly fond of Volkswagen, Audi, and almost anything vintage. Let me know what you have. PLEASE NOTE: Provided that low reserve is met, may I be the first to congratulate you on an excellent purchase! Of course the next step is to pay (see payment instructions). In addition, as a licensed Michigan car dealer, it is mandated that I collect sales tax, license fee and title fee, and I do charge a $95 documentation fee to cover the time to process all of the paperwork. All of these fees are the buyers responsibility. Transporting this car is also the buyers responsibility, but I will help in any way I can, including coordinating shipping via my wholesale network or picking up the buyer at Grand Rapids Michigan airport so you can drive this beauty home (it is ready for a road trip anywhere!). That said, this car is sold as is where is with no warranties expressed or implied. IN CLOSING: While I have not utilized eBay much for my dealership, I have been an eBay member since 1999 with 100% positive feedback (see kevhead31). I have accurately and honestly described this vehicle as I do with all of my items, which is why I have never received even one negative feedback in 15 years.

Jaguar shows off production XE body in camo
Sun, 18 May 2014Jaguar turned to Twitter and Facebook to reveal the production form of its coming XE sedan that we'll see for real at the Paris Motor Show. This is the first of a series of show-offs, Jaguar planning to wrap the bodywork in see-through camo that shows off the aluminum monocoque and other internals the company will use to promote the XE over its German rivals. That aluminum structure, which Jaguar calls iQ[Al], will also be used for other Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles.
Underneath that long bonnet and ahead of that terribly short trunk will come a series of Ingenium engines, the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engines in diesel and petrol forms that will come in a variety of power options, and the 3.0-liter supercharged V6 that can also be found in the F-Type. Before the XE goes on sale early next year, you can click the image above to get a slightly larger view of what the The Leaping Cat's near future looks like.
2016 Jaguar F-Type debuts available manual transmission, AWD
Wed, 19 Nov 2014If you're like us, you fell in the deepest, darkest sort of love with Jaguar's F-Type the moment its voluptuous form first surfaced. The car's full-bodied engine specs only furthered our ardor, and the droptop Jag sealed the deal before we even turned a wheel - all it took was hearing its engine bark to life.
And yet, even after driving the original convertible and the subsequent coupe, we've never quite shaken the notion that Jaguar erred a bit too heavily on the Grand Touring side of the equation for a proper sports car. That's partially because even the base model comes with a boatload of weight-adding luxury features. But perhaps more importantly, it's because the F-Type has only been available with an automatic transmission. Admittedly, the gearbox in question is a damned good paddle-shifted eight-speed ZF unit, but it's always chafed a bit that Jaguar wasn't committed to offering purists a manual - even if such a model would never be a high-volume proposition.
Apparently we weren't the only ones bothered by three-pedal omission. According to Russ Varney, F-Type Vehicle Program Director,
Jaguar releases C-X75 concept build story
Thu, 27 Jun 2013If you want to know what was going through the minds of decisionmakers at Jaguar when the company decided to build the batty C-X75 Concept, look no further than the quick video after the jump. Jaguar set about building a car with the performance of a Bugatti Veyron, the electric range of a Chevrolet Volt and the emissions of a Toyota Prius, and they turned to a legendary engineering firm to help make it happen. Williams, the same crew behind Williams F1, helped Jaguar stitch the concept car together, and the result is unlike anything we've seen before.
The twin-charged 1.6-liter four-cylinder mounted amidship is paired with an electric motor at each wheel for a combined output of over 850 horsepower. And, since the whole chassis is hewn from carbon fiber, a production version would've been light enough to give machines like the McLaren P1 and Ferrari LaFerrari a run for their money. Shame they apparently couldn't make the business case work. Watch the concept build story in the video below for yourself.
