Jag XJS- The cabriolet is an unusual design- half way from a coupe to a full convertible. The car has a top roll bar. Forward there are 2 targa panels. To the rear you can use either the removable top shell or can remove it and install a rear folding convertible top . I have that unit as well (see photo).I I have had car for 10 years and it was a great runner. Always maintained by Jag mechanics. Many upgrades over the years including new Hemmi shocks, front springs, top covering for hard shell and Targa panels, new radiator, Parellis, etc . The XJSC is a desirable limited edition-about only 2000 sold in USA. No time or garage to fix myself as we are downsizing . The car had been running well up to Aug this year when it would not continue running due to the distributor/jack shaft gearing problem . The local Garage (Neils Motors-Arundal) didnt want to open the engine to put in a new jack shaft- maybe beyond them. My normal Jag mechanic retired last year and I don't know who could do it in Maine. I could not get any Jag garage estimates to replace the jack shaft. I guess they just want to charge for whatever hours they spend. Other than the above the car is in great condition. The paint and chrome are excellent. The interior is good. Some starting rust spots at end of fender wheel wells were fixed a few years back with neutralizer and paint. Passenger door was repainted to correct a surface rust spot. No oil leaks. Last year the radiator header tank was overflowing and we then put in a new radiator. Car has surface rust starting at rear drivers panel under the fender (photo) Solutions-
If you're handy, this is your chance to own a great car. The car is in Kennebunkport Maine and can be seen on weekend. Pls call me at 978 407 8310 if you want to come up and I will give you the local directions. |

Here's today's round of auto plant closures in response to coronavirus
Fri, Mar 20 2020More automakers have shuttered factories, as businesses everywhere work to slow the spread of the Covid-19 coronavirus — and as the pandemic slows sales and disrupts parts supply chains. On Friday, the following closures were announced: • Volvo will close its factories in Sweden and the United States from March 26 to April 14. Volvo's U.S. facility, in Charleston, South Carolina, makes the S60 sedan. Its assembly plant in Torslanda, Sweden, turns out the XC90, SC60, and V90. Other Swedish facilities make engines and component parts. A Volvo factory in Ghent, Belgium, that builds the XC40 and V60 closed earlier this week and is expected to remain offline until April 6. Volvo's four factories in China have been reopened after a shutdown earlier this year. • Jaguar Land Rover announced that it will suspend production at its assembly plants in the UK over the coming week. The shutdown is expected to last until April 20. Elsewhere, production continues at the company's factories in India and Brazil, and JLR's joint-venture plant in China reopened at the end of February. • Bentley is closing its factory in Crewe, England, for four weeks, effective today. • Bugatti has put its atelier in Molsheim, France, on hiatus. No date was given for when assembly of its supercars might resume. • Mercedes-Benz on Monday will shut down its SUV factory in Alabama and its van assembly plant in South Carolina. Both will remain closed for a minimum of two weeks. Tesla yesterday revealed that it will suspend operations at its Fremont, California, vehicle assembly plant next week, on order from local officials there. Yesterday's factory closure announcements also included the U.S. assembly plants for Toyota (until April 6), Volkswagen (through March 29), Subaru (through March 29), and Hyundai (no time period specified). They join GM, Ford, Chrysler, Honda, Nissan, and Harley-Davidson, which earlier this week announced the suspension of production at their facilities.

Jaguar F-Type Project 7 takes the D-Type to the 21st Century
Sat, 16 Aug 2014One of the many big name debuts during the 2014 Monterey car week is this, the Jaguar F-Type Project 7, a stunning roadster inspired by Jaguar's legendary, finned D-Type sports car.
The Project 7 expands on the already appealing F-Type Convertible formula, further boosting the Jaguar Land Rover 5.0-liter, supercharged V8 to its most potent form yet - 575 horsepower - making this the most powerful production Jag in history. So equipped, the Project 7 is more cheetah than jaguar, roaring to 60 miles per hour in a rapid 3.8 seconds before reaching its electronically limited peak speed of 186 miles per hour.
Prices for the F-Type Project 7 start at $165,000, with customer deliveries slated begin in spring of 2015.
Jaguar-based Eagle E-Type Low Drag GT makes its bid for most beautiful car ever with EVO
Fri, 28 Feb 2014The Jaguar E-Type is one of the icons of automotive design, and British company Eagle has made a business out of restoring, upgrading and building their bespoke versions for the last 30 years. It does for the E-Type what Singer does for the Porsche 911 - takes an already great classic car and updates its mechanicals for the modern age.
The firm's latest creation, the Low Drag GT, might be its greatest ever, at least according to editor Henry Catchpole in Evo magazine's latest video. The car takes its inspiration from a trio of low-drag E-Type coupes built in the 1960s, but thoroughly modernizes the concept. The engine is based on Jag's inline-six, but made from aluminum and bored out to 4.7 liters to produce 346 horsepower and 360 pound-feet of torque. Catchpole says it's enough to propel it to 60 miles per hour in about 4.5 seconds. The body, transmission and differential are all also made from aluminum to cut the weight to 2,288 pounds, and modern upgrades include Ohlins dampers, AP Racing brakes and even extras like concealed GPS navigation and an Alcantara headliner. There's more head- and legroom than the originals, too.
Each car is built bespoke for each buyer, so prices vary, but Catchpole says the one he is in would run about half the cost of a LaFerrari - around $700,000.
