Up for sale is a 1982 jaguar xjs that was converted from a v 12 to a ford v 8, it currently has a 1993 ford 351 Windsor engine in it with a ford AOD transmission it has a ford wiring harness and ecu, ford steering column, ford gauges ford gas tank and probably a few other ford things I cant think of. This car does run and drive and stop, before I got it, it had been sitting in a dry garage for 5 years but started right up it needs some minor tinkering to make it perfect, the intake is something the previous owner made and it has a crack in it so it is getting a bit to much air when it runs, it would be best to either change it over to a carbureted setup or find a factory intake that fit, it also could use spark plugs just has a miss when it is running, exhaust sounds very nice, deep and not very loud, I have not dove it really any distance, around 30 miles at the most but transmission shifts fine, it stops good don't get hot the gauges work the ford speedometer says it has 220,000 miles but it don't, the engine and transmission don't either just the speedo was used out of a higher mileage truck, the engine don't have no odd ticks clicks knocks, nothing sounds out of the ordinary and with some new plugs it should run great. The gas tank and battery setup is not exactly the best in my eyes but could be changed, they are both located in the trunk, the gas tank don't leak as far as I can tell but when you open the trunk you can at times smell some gas fumes, I have had the tank all the way full and couldn't find a leak anywhere it might not be vented properly would be my only guess. the interior is in fair shape for its age needs some cleaning and some stitches need to be redone in the drivers seat but its not all tore up or beat up, the dash has some small cracks in it and could use a plate or something to cover where some of the original jag gauges were and could be made to look pretty nice with a little work, the windshield wipers work the electric windows work, and it has a sunroof, the body is in really nice shape it looks very clean underneath and only has a few small bubbles of rust starting on the rear quarters as shown in the pics, it has a older paintjob on it which don't look to bad but should possibly be redone in the future, one tail light lens has a crack, all windows are good no cracks or broken ones , if I forgot to mention something just ask me a question and I will be glad to give you an answer. vin number is actually jnv5840cc107758 |

Jaguar F-Type Coupe unveiled with range-topping R model
Tue, 19 Nov 2013This is the Jaguar F-Type Coupe, the long-awaited hardtop counterpart to the F-Type roadster we tested earlier this year. Besides adding a roof, it shuffles up the engine range that we saw on the Convertible model, and in two of three cases, it cuts the cost of entry rather quite nicely (a happy contradiction to earlier reports).
The big change is that the F-Type Coupe does away with the Convertible's V8S trim (although the 495-horsepower variant will still be available in the droptop), and adds an even more potent letter to the top of the range. The $99,000 F-Type R Coupe is the latest member of Jaguar's R Performance line, and despite being down a letter on the XFR-S and XKR-S, it features the same 5.0-liter, 550-hp supercharged V8. With all that power on tap, the F-Type R will sprint to 60 mph in just 4.0 seconds (if it doesn't break into the 3s in independent testing, we'll be shocked) and on to a top speed of 186 miles per hour. If you need to get to freeway speeds quickly, the F-Type R will also go from 50 to 75 mph in just 2.4 seconds.
As the top tier model, the F-Type R is loaded down with performance-oriented tech. The suspension features adaptive dynamics that manage the car's body movements and adjust accordingly, while the suspension itself is 4.3-percent stiffer in front and 3.7-percent tighter in the back than the F-Type V8S Convertible. Drivers can dial up an even stiffer suspension setting in Dynamic Mode, which will also tweak the steering, the shift schedule of the eight-speed SportShift automatic and the throttle response of that brawny engine.
Watch the Chevy Corvette dismiss its Euro rivals at the hands of a Brit magazine
Sat, 08 Feb 2014European auto writers, especially the British, have a bit of a reputation for favoring their own domestic cars over foreign rivals in comparison tests. Just think about how many times you've heard Jeremy Clarkson deify the latest product of UK loins while denigrating an American rival as a hopeless "Yank Tank." However, we have to tip our hats to the folks at Autocar because in its latest video comparing the 2014 Corvette Stingray to the Porsche 911, Jaguar F-Type V8 S and Audi R8, it's actually given the Vette a fair shake.
Autocar has put the Stingray through a battery of tests against what it considers to be the three best sports cars on sale in Europe today. And while the tests that it has chosen are somewhat random and subjective, it has concluded that the C7 can stand up against its rivals, even irrespective of its price. It's one thing to hear about how great the Stingray is from American writers, but it's great to know that not all Brits think we've gone crazy for calling the new Chevrolet "exquisite."
Scroll down to see how it all plays out on video.
2015 Jaguar F-Type Coupe is a seriously pretty kitty
Wed, 20 Nov 2013The F-Type roadster is a beautiful car, but if we're honest, the coupe might be even more so. The hard top creates a smooth, uninterrupted line from the windshield all the way back to the rear of the car, the kinked-up rear-quarter windows are a nice touch and, overall, the design looks more organic than the roadster.
With the coupe's introduction also comes a new engine in the F-Type lineup, the 550-horsepower 5.0-liter supercharged V8 found in the XFR-S and XKR-S, and it's fitted to the top model, the F-Type R Coupe. The 495-hp mill in the V8 S roadster won't be an option in the coupe, however, but we're okay with that because Jaguar claims the 550-hp variant will scoot to 60 mph in just four seconds. Jaguar also will offer the base F-Type Coupe, with a 340-hp 3.0-liter supercharged V6, and the F-Type S Coupe, which has the same engine tuned to 380 hp. The base and mid-level models are quite quick, and can accelerate from 0-60 mph in 5.1 and 4.8 seconds, respectively.
The F-Type Coupe is priced starting from $65,000, the S Coupe adds $12,000 and the R Coupe starts at $99,000 (prices don't include $895 destination fee). For more F-Type Coupe info, check out our previous post on it, or head on below to read the press release.
