We purchased this 95 Jaguar in August of 2012 after researching model changes over the years, and especially after learning about the tremendous improvements in reliability the 1995-96 models have with the Ford engineered 6 cylinder engine and transmission. Our trusted garage sorted out any remaining small issues over the last year, so the Jaguar is a joy to own & drive. We spared no expense to make it "right", and here is a list of most items addressed before we put her in our garage: New front & rear brakes & rotors, including the parking brake rotor. A new Battery. New rear tires to match the almost new front tires. A complete service, to include all fluid changes - coolant as well. New electric fan switch relays, and service for the parking brake mechanism. Sorting out minor electric issues to bring the car up to modern day reliability. We just had our local shop wax & condition the inside & outside. There is some minor surface rust starting on some of the wire wheels (not noticeable unless looking for it). The body is in excellent condition, without any rust or issues, and the convertible top is "as new" & the expensive OEM cloth version. The interior is also in excellent shape, and includes the "two-plus-two" rear seat. The temperature gauge reads a bit warmer than the actual temperature (checked by our garage and found to be the gauge, not the sender), but it was too much trouble and not worth disrupting the entire dash assembly. In the condition she is in, I would rate her an 8 out of 10. The original paint is in excellent condition, the top & interior is excellent. She is not a show car, but is in beautiful condition, and is a reliable daily driver. You are encouraged to see the car, with a phone call - and I will try to answer any questions as well Our number is: 574-262-1492. We do have her for sale locally, so the auction could end early, thus the Buy It Now offer. We are putting her up for sale to allow us to pursue our dream of owning a classic wooden boat. We have a realistic expectation on the selling price and have placed a reserve low enough for anyone serious about the purchase to potentially get a great deal. These cars sell all over the place price wise. A completely sorted out example is worth a serious consideration. |

Jaguar to expand Jaguar XKR-S GT production run?
Wed, 10 Apr 2013According to a report in Autocar, demand for the Jaguar XKR-S GT is such that the English company could nearly double production from 30 to 50 cars. Such inflation can often incense those have already put deposits down, worried that they've both been lied to about the potentially diminished values of their cars, but Jaguar has made the announcement barely a day after the XKR-S GT was revealed and 50 still isn't that many vehicles.
Nothing in the Autocar report indicates the additional examples will not come to America, making the 500-horsepower superfast coupe a treat we can still call all our own. Jaguar didn't add horsepower but instead honed other aspects of the car to produce a GT that can lap the 'Ring nearly as quickly as a Ferrari 458 Italia, and the world should be the beneficiary, the company's brand director saying, "The real beauty of this project has been that it has extended our understanding of the elements involved in making a car go so fast, and that will feed back into all our road car programs." Sounds good to us.
Can a Jaguar XKR-S be drifted while blindfolded?
Thu, 27 Dec 2012Bring together a 550-horsepower Jaguar XKR-S and a rain-soaked skidpad, and it's almost impossible to not end up in a sideways drift... accidental or on purpose. With that in mind, the gang over at Autocar got a hold of the monstrous XKR-S for the latest installment of "Will it Drift?," only they raised the stakes a little by attempting the feat with a blindfolded driver
We've driven the XKR-S a number of times here at Autoblog (including a First Drive, Review and Quick Spin), so we weren't at all surprised to learn that blind drifting in the car is possible. But what is remarkable is the ease at which it happened. This, of course, can be credited as much to the car as to the driver, Steve Sutcliffe. Check out the impressive video for yourself, which is posted after the jump.
Highlights from the Goodwood Festival of Speed, including the McLaren P1 and a Ford Transit running the hill
Mon, 15 Jul 2013The sole purpose of this post is as a time-waster, and since you shouldn't have to work to waste time, we've done it for you. In the numerous videos below you'll find cars that have lately been in the news tramping all over the grounds of Lord March's estate in Goodwood, England.
There's the McLaren P1 heading up the hill, the Jaguar Project 7, then a casually-driven Porsche 917 followed by an even-more-casually-driven Porsche 956, topped off by a Porsche 936 that is anything but casually driven. The next round is the flame-spitting Peugeot 405 T16 Pikes Peak from Climb Dance, a camera mounted on the Peugeot RCZ R after it showing you what the whole, uninterrupted run up the hill looks like. For a real head-turner, we couldn't embed it but there's Andy Reid blasting up the hill in a Ford Transit Supervan with a Cosworth 3000 V6 engine.
The modern racing contingent has Allan McNish doing the hill in the Audi R18 e-tron quattro he used to win Le Mans and Lewis Hamilton making lots of tire smoke in the Mercedes-AMG Petronas MGP-W02. For comparison, that's followed by Nick Heidfeld's record-setting run up the hill in 1999 in the McLaren MP4/14 . The classic racing contingent is headlined by 71-year-old Giacomo Agostini on an MV Agusta.
