1987 Jaguar Xjs V12 Collector Car Barn Find All Original on 2040-cars
Strongsville, Ohio, United States
|
Barn Find USED IN MOVIES AND TV MATCHING NUMBER ALL ORIGINAL 1988 JAGUAR XJS COUPE This vehicle along with thousands of others were used in TV and Movies when first purchased and then stored in a barn for over 20+ years. No, I do not know what movies or TV shows they were used in. The owner of the company who supplied these cars (his ex-business) did not keep those records. I purchased over a dozen Jaguars
from the collection and had them transported to Cleveland, Ohio and placed in
storage until I build my mancave. The original New Jersey dust is still on
the car. I talked to the manager of the private storage facility and he said that these these cars were never moved or touched once they were placed in storage (20+ years ago). This car is unmolested and all original. Except for the dust, the car is near immaculate. The paint is excellent, there is no rust - anywhere (except for exhaust pipe). The engine is clean and has not been
started. I wanted to wait until I could properly prepare. I had new keys made from the original paperwork and VIN number. The only missing piece(s) I could see, are the chrome top plate of the bumpers. The interior is immaculate and looks like it was rarely driven. If you like Jaguars and an XJS lover, this car is the perfect car for your collection. Needs little, all original, unmolested and has never seen any elements of weather in over 20 years.Call me with any questions at 440-915-8440. Take a look at the pictures. I have done nothing to this car except move it a few hundred miles. I do reserve the option to remove this item and sell locally.

Jaguar Land Rover building new Special Vehicle Operations facility
Sun, 17 Aug 2014It's only been a couple of months since Jaguar Land Rover announced the formation of its new Special Operations division, and we've already seen a number of vehicles to come out of it. But now the British automaker has announced a new facility that will house its elite skunkworks department.
Set to be built at Prologis Park in Ryton, England, on the outskirts of Coventry, the new Special Vehicle Operations Technical Centre will encompass dedicated production lines, F1-style flexible workshops, a dedicated paint studio and VIP suite for commissioning bespoke projects. JLR will spend some $33 million on the facility that will be home to 150 specialists - 100 of them being new hires.
The first project which the Special Operations division is working on is the F-Type Project 7, but we've already seen more projects in the pipeline - including the upcoming Range Rover Sport SVR - and you can bet there'll be more. The revival of the Lightweight E-Type also falls under Special Operations, but is undertaken by the Jaguar Heritage department located nearby at Browns Lane.
Jaguar planning two bodystyles for next XJ
Wed, 17 Apr 2013As we alluded to in today's F-Type first drive, Jaguar hasn't been selling its wares in China for very long, and as a result, buyers there usually don't have the same appreciation for the brand's history. So you might reasonably think that the company's recent radical styling shift (kicked off by the 2008 XF) wouldn't be as jarring to the nation's buying populace since they really didn't have the automaker's more traditionally styled models from years past to compare them against.
Yet while Jaguar and its sister marque, Land Rover, continue to pick up steam in China's developing market, that apparently isn't necessarily the case. Local buyers there tend to have more conservative tastes when it comes to styling, preferring more upright dimensions, big back seats and larger quantities of traditional luxury materials (think: chrome and wood) than other markets currently find desirable. Thus, the very bold current-generation XJ sedan may be leaving some sales on the table.
According to Edmunds, Jag doesn't want to risk that, and as such, it is preparing two bodystyles for the next-generation XJ - one with the rakish coupe-like styling of the current model, and a more "old-school" three-box sedan designed to appeal to a wider swath of Chinese buyers.
Jaguar XK and F-Type meet for final sibling faceoff
Fri, 08 Aug 2014There's nothing that real, dyed-in-the-wool car geeks love so much as to say "Old Car X is actually a lot better than New Car Y." For reasons that defy both logic and science, we all (your author included) are able to, almost simultaneously, bitch about needed advancements in current vehicles and then bemoan character lost in the next crop.
Mitsubishi Evo models have been supremely prone to this bifurcation of opinion in recent years (ask an Evo IX fanboy about the Evo X sometime... ), and performance cars wearing WRX, Mustang, and M3 badges have been deeply subject to it, as well.
The Jaguar XK and F-Type are not exactly in the same one-model, generational-changeover form as those mentioned above, but that doesn't mean that there aren't defenders of both the old dog and the new joint. Autocar seeks the truth of the matter in this new video, and we're just happy to come along for the ride. May the best sib win.
