1995 Jaguar Xjr Base Sedan 4-door 4.0l on 2040-cars

Year:1995 Mileage:152000

Shelbyville, Indiana, United States

I've decided to sell my XJR reluctantly, as I'm moving to a new house and have many other vehicles I'm going to have to transport.

I bought this car as a non runner and have spent over $2000 getting it to run and drive. And I was driving it around for a while. New parts include: 2 new fuel pumps, crank position sensor, cam sensor, MAF sensor ($350), 6 brand new injectors ($520), new front struts, air, fuel and oil filters, fuel pump relays, ignition relays... The list goes on. Plus I have a number of parts that are still in the box that will go with the car.

Once I got the car running and driving I found out it had a bad steering rack and it needed a couple of new ignition coils, as it would occasional misfire then run normally again, and I traced this to bad coils... That was as far as I got.

The car currently doesn't have a steering rack on it, although I do have the old one that can go back on it. It literally takes about 30 mins to fit, it's only 6 bolts. but this one has badly bent inner tie rods.

Apart from all that stuff it's a good solid car. The engine and transmission are very strong and the engine sounds really nice. The exhaust system is nearly new, and the transmission was serviced recently.

The interior of the car isn't amazing. The leather seats are worn and the driver's seat is torn on the upper left side. And the passenger seat has a tear. Also the sunroof seal is shot, so I've put duct tape on it to seal it. Everything works though, all the windows roll down, the Karman Hardon sound system is incredible!

The body is fair, it was a California car so absolutely no rust. It does have dings and scratches here and there but most of them will polish out I would think. The passenger rear door has a bumper scuff on it.

The windshield is cracked. And the car has a rebuilt title, as it was driven over a pot hole and it tore up the suspension and the insurance company paid it off, then the guy bought it back from them as far as I know.

All in all this will make a nice car with minimal work. And it will be a daily driver with 2 ignition coils and a steering rack, which you can get on here for under $400.

Thanks for looking!

Jaguar testing hardcore F-Type R-S GT?

Wed, 16 Apr 2014

Some automakers make a hardcore model, then sit back and revel in its awesomeness. Jaguar does things a little differently. It takes a standard production model, gives it more power, bigger brakes and a tighter suspension and slaps the letter R on it. Then it gives it even more power, even bigger brakes and an even tighter suspension and calls it an R-S. Sometimes the engineers in Coventry don't even think that's enough, so they strip out some weight and dial things up even further and call it an R-S GT.
So far, they've only gone that far with the XK (transformed first into the XKR, then the XKR-S, and finally the XKR-S GT), but with that model on its way out, Jaguar seems to be preparing to give the newer F-Type a similar treatment. Now we can't be sure that what we're looking at is an F-Type R-S GT, especially since the 550-horsepower engine from the XKR-S and XFR-S is already powering the existing F-Type R Coupe, but it does seem to have all the makings of a hardcore performance model.
Compared to the existing F-Type, the development model pictured here has a bigger front splitter (like the one on the Project 7 concept), a big rear wing and a set of what looks like pretty big lightweight alloys. It's also, tellingly, a roadster, which (unlike the coupe) has until now topped out at 500hp with the V8 S model. So while it may be hard to say exactly just what Jaguar has in store for us here (or what they'll call it), one thing's for sure: it's gonna be fast and loud.

2015 Jaguar F-Type V6 S Coupe

Wed, 03 Sep 2014

My first, ill-fated job in the auto world was at an exotic car dealer in metro Detroit. The job itself sucked, but the cars, they were exceptional. Amidst a sea of Tiptronic Porsche Boxsters, first-gen Mercedes-Benz SLKs and abused second-generation Range Rovers, there were some real gems.
In particular, I have fond memories of a trio of undrivable Jaguar E-Types. Two Series II coupes as well as a Series III convertible (that featured a mostly broken roof) spent the entirety of my brief tenure at the dealership in the back of the musty service garage. I'd make side trips through there just to see the trio of E-Types, which rarely failed to put a big, ridiculous grin on my face.
Since that time in the summer of 2005, there hasn't been a single Jag that's been capable of eliciting the same goofy smile. Not the XFR-S, with its un-aristocratic wing, nor the XKR-S. At the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show, though, Jaguar introduced this F-Type Coupe. Sure, the droptop model had been around for a bit, but I thought it was the new coupe that most captured the E-Type's classic aesthetic, with a swooping roofline, those gorgeous rear haunches and a long, powerful hood. I had to drive one.

Petrolicious profiles one of the final Jaguar E-Types

Wed, 10 Apr 2013

There's no question that David Paddison has got a very lovely 1974 Jaguar E-Type convertible. The rubber bumpers of this late E-Type may distract ever so slightly from the purity of the lines, but that doesn't mean we're still not completely jealous of the latest Petrolicious subject car.
As usual, the team of vintage car videographers has done a fine job capturing a small moment of gear-headness with this latest installment - The Last of the Breed. We do wonder why we don't get to hear a little bit more of that famed Jaguar V12 rumble, however. There's just a whiff of engine and exhaust sound in the middle of the video, while the rest of the piece sounds like it was scored by Amy Grant's rhythm guitarist. See for yourself, below.
