1990 Jaguar Xj6 Sovereign Sedan 4-door 4.0l on 2040-cars
Concord, North Carolina, United States
|
This is a very nice mechanically and bodily sound all original no rust 24 year old Jaguar that still continues to amaze people on its condition. There is an acid rain blemish on the hood and the right rear door has a ding that has been painted. I am a Jaguar enthusiast and member of the JCNA and can be very anal about the condition of my Jaguars. Within the last two years this XJ6 has had all four brake rotors replaced with Centric Rotors and all disc pads replaced with EBC red stuff brake pads. All fluids have been drained and flushed including the differential and transmission, the problematic self leveling suspension has been replaced with standard springs and new Bogue shocks and mounts. Both front shock mounts have been renewed together with the two rear sub frame bushings. All five tires were renewed with Falken ZIEX ZE-912 in the plus zero size of 215/65R-15 in February 2013. The drivers side heater/air blower motor has been replaced, and the R12 refrigerant renewed,yes cold air-conditioning, distributor cap, rotor,plug leads and spark plugs are all upgraded and new. The high pressure hydraulic hose from the steering pump to the steering rack is new, the fuel pump and filter are new along with the EGR valve and oxygen sensor All systems are working mechanical and electrical, however, although I have replaced the oil pressure sensor twice( it reads 40 psi ) the instrument gauge is still not working correctly, but all is well. The in-line DOHC 6 cylinder Jaguar engine is the best and virtually indestructible, treated to premium gas and 20w-50 Castrol oil and filter changes every 3000 miles it should last up to 300,000 miles before a real inspection is required. This engine loves to be driven and will cruise all day long at 75mph and return about 23/24 miles per gallon, I am only selling because I have my eye on a 1994 XJ40 V12. I will throw in a set of 4 Dayton wire wheels that are good but need some refinishing. This vehicle is sold as is where is with no warranty expressed or implied buyer must arrange pick up |

Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee season 2 opens with Sarah Silverman and Jag E-Type
Sat, 15 Jun 2013Season Two of Jerry Seinfeld's Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee kicked this week in style. How much more style is there to be had than in a 1969 Jaguar XKE, after all? This time around, Seinfeld and Sarah Silverman spend some time driving around in the "slinky, sexy" Jag, talking comedy and then grabbing breakfast.
In addition to the kickoff of the show's second season, this episode also represents the start of a 24-episode sponsorship with Acura. The original deal promised short ads at the beginning and end of each episode, but this time around, Seinfeld "stumbles upon" a 2014 Acura RLX, which is obviously - and admittedly - the work of product integration. Scroll down to watch Seinfeld and Silverman exchange banter with the Jag's beauty as a happy backdrop.
2014 Jaguar XKR-S GT takes fiercest feline further [UPDATE]
Tue, 26 Mar 2013If there were any car to overshadow the 542-horsepower Jaguar XJR that's coming to the New York Auto Show, this is it. Meet the Jaguar XKR-S GT - a street-legal, higher-performance version of the already hardcore XKR-S that will be headed to North America in very limited quantities. Only 30 will be offered on our continent, with 25 earmarked for the United States and the remaining five going to Canada. The cost of entry? $174,000 when it goes on sale this August.
What that gets you is a coupe that is, without any doubt, ready to attack any racetrack it might encounter. The XKR-S' supercharged 5.0-liter V8 has not been upgraded in terms of power - not that 550 horsepower and 502 pound-feet of torque is anything to sneeze at - but instead, Jaguar focused on tuning the bits of the car that help effectively put all that grunt to the ground. There's a new hood with rows of louvers to aid in engine cooling, and elsewhere on the car's body, you'll find carbon fiber on the redesigned front air splitter, dive planes, extended wheel arch spats, as well as a new rear diffuser, an aluminum front under tray and an absolutely massive wing out back to keep downforce to a maximum.
Underneath that hot body are retuned and height-adjustable adaptive dampers; spring rates have been increased by 68 percent in front and 25 percent at the rear versus a standard XKR-S. Most of the front and rear suspension geometry has been upgraded, larger carbon ceramic brakes have been fitted at all four corners, and wider 20-inch forged alloy wheels are found here, wrapped in Pirelli Corsa tires - 255/35-series rubber in front and 305/30-series stuff out back. There's also a revised active exhaust system, which should only improve the already thunderous roar coming out the back of the Jag coupe, and a faster steering rack has been added for improved agility.
The Jaguar E-Type Lightweight is back on the prowl after a few decades away
Sun, 17 Aug 2014Sometimes procrastination has its benefits. Jaguar originally planned to build a run of 18 E-Type Lightweights for racing in the '60s. However, it was only ever to complete 12 of them. It has taken all of the intervening decades to finally get back to the project and build the final run of new Lightweights. While Jag announced the plan recently, the first continuation model was unveiled during the Pebble Beach weekend.
Coming from Jaguar Land Rover's Special Operations unit, these cars are identical to the way they left the factory in the '60s. Jag is even using the same grade of aluminum for the bodies, and the cars are fully compliant for FIA historic racing. Power comes from an aluminum, 3.8-liter inline-six with about 300 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque routed through a four-speed manual gearbox. Who could guess that in 2014 someone could buy a brand new vehicle from a major manufacturer that comes with Weber carbs? Though, Lucas mechanical fuel injection is an option.
While they look old, these new E-types are also a wonder of modern technology. To get things just right, the company laser scanned an original car to create the new bodies. Check out the gallery from the unveiling to see this old cat on the prowl again.
