Bedford, New York, United States

Greetings!  I have decided to sell my 1990 Jaguar XJS Convertible. You may say to yourself, oh! another XJS for sale. Well! I follow the XJS market very closely. There once was a time you could have any E type you wanted for these prices also. This is a wonderful car and will serve its new owner for years to come. This is the fourth XJS that I have owned, and definitely the finest one! 1990 was the final full year of production of this model with the beautiful round English headlights, shortened tail lights, and of course the final refinement of the 5.3 V12 engine. 1990 was the first year to introduce a driver's airbag and tilting steering column. The car is finished in Old English White with tan Connolly hides. The interior is totally original and in spectacular condition. The seats show beautiful natural patina for a car of its age, but still look fresh and new. The wilton carpeting and beautiful German tan canvas top show perfectly. The car has fewer than 84,000 miles and two previous owners. This is an unaltered car. It enjoys its original interior, carpeting, glass, radio, etc. The door panels have never been cut so as to instal larger speakers. I have seen them with boom boxes on the rear sill! The body has never completely been re-sprayed. The car enjoys its original paint in areas which include the hood, door jams, engine compartment, and trunk areas. Again this is just a great looking car with the proper amount of wear and use. Of course, the car has never had an accident, nor has it ever been rusted.

Thankfully, the car enjoys its original lattice style 15 inch wheels with matching brand-new tires, including the spare. The car has never been bastardized by the installation of body side moldings, CB or cell antennas, and most importantly, the car was never fitted with those god awful fender flare trim moldings. The windows have never been tinted. This is just a wonderful car to watch appreciate, and enjoy as time passes.

Feel free to contact me at (914) 403-1768. The car is located in the scenic hamlet of Bedford Village, NY, just west of Stamford CT. For you New Yorkers, you might be comforted by the fact that Bedford lies only 42 miles north of Times Square. Tools, owners manual, boot, boot bag, tire cover, etc., all included.In closing,  I am a seasoned collector of only fine cars. I began my hobby in 1978 when as a 24 year old man,  I had the good fortune to study with one of the greats,  Ed Jurist, owner of the Vintage Car Store in Nyack NY.  Mr. Jurist taught me life lessons. Only start with good examples, and with marques and models which inspire emotion to its owner. ( actually we are really stewards of these properties. one day they will be in other hands)  This is why all these years later I follow his advice. Keep it original and as unrestored as possible.

If you have transportation needs,  feel free to contact my dear friend,  Dave Lambert of Transport Masters in Boca Raton FL. He will gladly give you a free estimate for professional and courteous service. 561 504 7030.  Lastly, I have used eBay for over ten years. My approval rating is 100%. I take this privilege quite seriously.  Call me first. Come and see the car or send a representative to check it out. Thank you, John Louis. (914 403 1768)

Jaguar F-Type Coupe spotted testing

Thu, 09 May 2013

The automotive world has been hot on fire with the Jaguar F-Type of late. We're still recovering from the excitement of driving Jaguar's new sports car for the first time, and recently we had a predictive look at a coupe version. As it turns out, those 'patent sketches' were just a warm up for the real deal F-Type Coupe, as this brand new set of spy images proves out.
Word from our shooter is that security around the F coupe was and is really tight. The photographer had to hide in the cargo area of his clandestine SUV, just to catch these few, not-perfectly-clear images (that odd color your see is window tint). Still, the photos are good enough to see that the rakish silhouette of the hardtop is going to do justice to the convertible. In fact, the new top seems to flow quite perfectly into the car's rear haunches.
Expect that the F-Type Coupe will share an engine lineup with the roadster, meaning both a naturally aspirated and a supercharged V6, as well as a V8 option. Hot R and R-S versions of the Jaguar coupe are a virtual lock, too, though how far down the product pipeline they are is unclear.

Jaguar Land Rover calls in handful of vehicles over suspension bolts

Thu, 24 Apr 2014

With most recalls seemingly affecting mass-market vehicles, it'd be all too easy to assume, consciously or otherwise, that higher-end automobiles never face such issues. But the main reason we don't see the NHTSA recalling more luxury automobiles isn't because of their quality, we'd postulate: it's because of their relative scarcity.
Take Jaguar Land Rover, recalls of whose vehicles we only seem to have cause to report about once a year. So if you're figuring they're about due, here you go. The Indian-owned British auto group has just announced two recalls, both regarding suspension components: one affecting Jaguars and another concerning - you guessed it - Land Rovers.
First up we have a recall for 2013 to 2014 model year Jaguar XJ, XF and XK models - a whopping 297 of them - which have been found to have problematic toe links. Separation of the toe link from the rear sub-frame could result in impaired stability and control over the vehicle's direction, so JLR is calling them in to replace the nuts and washers on the rear toe links.

2014 Jaguar XJR is large, in charge

Wed, 27 Mar 2013

There are few things in this world we love more than a huge, supersonic-feeling sedan, and Jaguar has just ripped the sheets off of its newest entry into that set of bruisers. The 2014 Jaguar XJR puts down a full 550 horsepower and 502 pound-feet of torque courtesy of a supercharged 5.0-liter V8. All that thrust lands on the rear tires through an eight-speed automatic transmission, and the big aluminum-chassis'd four door can sprint to 60 miles per hour in a skinny 4.4 seconds. Top speed sits at an electronically limited 174 mph, and Jaguar estimates the machine will still return up to 23 miles per gallon highway.
Do. Want.
The 2014 XJR also features stiffer spring and damper rates along with an electronically controlled rear differential. Of course, there are plenty of styling tweaks on hand to separate the most menacing XJ from the rest of the family. Those include new fascias, R emblems and massive 20-inch wheels outdoors as well as special seating and trim elements indoors. Asking price? That would Be $116,000 for the XJR and $119,000 for the long-wheelbase L version. Check out the full press blast below.
