I am a retired Jaguar dealer and bought this car in 2004 because I always loved the way the V-12's drove. I had Engine rebuilt in 2006 at 91,740 miles. The transmission/torque converter was also rebuilt at same time. In Sept. of that year I had the body panels removed and car stripped completely then refinished in the original color (Pictures of the panels removed during process available). A new interior was purchased from OSJI and installed by a custom interior shop. I have only driven this car during the summer months and showed her a few times over these past nine years. Now Car reflects almost 98,000 miles which I believe is original from what I can surmise. Over $50,000 has been spent to ensure this car would be in top shape to enjoy. This vehicle runs smoothly and handles as a V-12 should. Maintained by my old Jaguar dealership and always garaged you won't be disappointed with her. 

Reason for selling? I'm 74 and downsizing; at some point in our lives we need to give up some toys.

Jaguar and Land Rover to consolidate dealerships

Thu, 29 Nov 2012

Jaguar and Land Rover are set to merge their sales facilities, according to Inside Line. Jaguar Land Rover North America President Andy Gross says 45 percent of Jaguar owners also have an SUV in their stable, so it makes sense to give customers as much exposure to the cat's high-riding cousins and possible. The number of overall outlets will remain the same, and the brands will reportedly remain separate on the showroom floor, however.
So far, just one dealer has made the move to combine under the roof of one 68,000 square-foot facility in Paramus, New Jersey (above), though a further 20 are ready to make the shift and become Jaguar Land Rover outlets. Gross believes the shift is necessary so that his company's dealer network will accurately reflect the company's products. We'll see how cozy the brands are when Jaguar starts rolling out its own SUVs in a few years.

This mule is the first evidence Jaguar is working on a 3 Series fighter

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

Rumors of an entry-level, BMW 3 Series-fighting Jaguar sedan have been floating around for quite some time, but thanks to our intrepid spy photographers, we now have visible proof that such a model is, in fact, in the works.
Despite this tester's XF fittings, it's clear that what lies beneath is an entirely different beast. The doors have been shortened, roofline adjusted, rear deck lopped off and exhaust replaced, giving us a better idea of the new sedan's smaller dimensions and details. The new Jag, which may be dubbed "XS," is expected to ride on Jaguar's PLA (Premium Lightweight Architecture) platform, touting weight-saving materials that should do a lot to keep overall heft to a minimum. Both turbocharged four- and supercharged six-cylinder powertrains are expected to be on tap.
Codenamed X760, the new small sedan will reportedly hit the market in 2015. Earlier reports have indicated that a new crossover - Jag's first ever - riding on the same platform will arrive shortly thereafter, so that suggests that the platform will be fitted with all-wheel drive as well.
