Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Rust at various locations. Sunroof motor and rubber seal need to be replaced. Issues with AC. Minor scuffs on rear passenger door. Hinge on driver's door broken. Leather seats need to be restitched at several places. Leather starts to crack on driver's seat."

This is the Classic Series III Jaguar XJ6. The body styling is timeless, and has yet to be duplicated in the current models. I purchased this vehicle in 2011 at 99K miles, and am the fourth owner. At that time I invested in some extensive restoration, most of which is still holding up well. Since then I have put less than 10K miles on the vehicle, for a total of 107,135. The body is in very good condition, there are no serious dents/dings. There are a few very small scuffs on the rear passenger door. As can be seen in the photos, the paint is in good condition, however this model jaguar is not impervious to the elements. The hinge on the driver's door is broken. There are a few areas of rust. The interior is in very good condition, and although the wood in the interior is twenty five years old it is still in very good condition. The leather upholstery is mostly fine, but the stitching needs repair in some areas. The sunroof rubber seal and motor are in need of repair. There is a minor issue with the A/C. The tires are quite new with less than 1000 miles on them. The brakes were serviced less than 9000 miles ago; this is a key item as the rear differential must be dismounted to replace the rear brakes. Mechanically this vehicle is sound. It has always passed the smog test with flying colors.

Properly restored a vehicle of this type is still quite valuable. I however do not have the time to continue the restoration. It is with some regret that I am offering this Jaguar for sale. I hope that someone who can get it back into proper shape will be looking at this.

Thanks for looking.

1964 Jaguar XKE slinks into Jay Leno's Garage

Wed, 07 Aug 2013

The idea of altering a classic Jaguar E-Type might seem preposterous to some, but Jasen Len of XKs Unlimited managed to create a modified 1964 E-Type that stays true to the Jag's timeless design. Just a few months after Jay Leno featured his own original E-Type on Jay Leno's Garage, Len stopped by to show off his custom Jaguar creation.
Starting out with a rust-ravaged body, Len made the car just the way he wanted it to be. He started off with some minor changes to the car's exterior like the Le Mans-inspired racing lights and handmade front bumpers, handmade sills with integrated exhaust and flared rear fenders. Inside, he dropped the floor to make more interior space and reworked the E-Type's styling for more of a modern look. We have to say, if you're going to mess with a Series 1 E-Type, this is the way to do it.
Sadly, even though Len and Leno spend plenty of time talking about the car's 300-horsepower 3.8-liter inline six-cylinder, we never get to hear the car fire up. Check out the JLG video, which is posted below, and as a bonus, enjoy the gallery from Jaguar showing a 1961 E-Type.

Jaguar F-Type squares off against Porsche 911, Aston V8 Vantage with Chris Harris

Fri, 21 Jun 2013

Chris Harris is back on the job, taking on really really difficult car questions like: Which enormously sexy and good-to-drive, high-performance convertible is the top of the heap? As one of the hottest cars in the luxury space right now, the Jaguar F-Type S is, of course, in on the action. Competition comes in the form of the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster and the Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet. Sun-loving CEOs who despise test-driving need look no further.
Scroll on below for a fully featured (with a running time of more than 20 minutes) comparison video. Harris does his best to entertain - in a typically nitpicky and made-up-British-words fashion - and the moving pictures are lovely to look at. Kick back, pour a pint and get your weekend started off right.

Watch this bad parker get what's coming to him

Fri, 02 Aug 2013

If you're lucky enough to have a nice vehicle, do your fellow gearheads a favor and don't park like a clown. Seriously. Not only will you anger everyone who is trying to find a place to park, but your nice car is a billboard reinforcing the stereotype that car people are self-important and inconsiderate.
Take this gentleman for example. He has a Jaguar XK, and understandably wants to take care of it. Rather than parking it far, far away from any other cars and getting a bit of exercise by walking to his building, he takes up two spots (albeit barely) close to the structure. From the cameraman's narration, we can tell his coworkers are less than thrilled about his inability to stay between the lines.
Naturally, they wanted to teach him a lesson, so they parked a bigger vehicle as close to his driver's door as possible. Mr. XK's attempts to enter his vehicle are rather amusing, culminating in his climbing through the passenger side and scooching over to the driver's seat. While we can debate this sort of treatment all day long, it was effective. The video includes a follow up at the end showing where the XK driver parked the next day, and as you might guess, it wasn't in the same spot.
