The Jaguar E Type is one of those few cars that can be described as "timeless". It is still as stunning a design as it was when it first appeared in the early 1960s. This 1966 roadster was purchased from the original owner in late 1966 by the current owner's father. The car underwent a total restoration in the late 1990s and has been driven less than 1400 miles since. However, it has been impeccably maintained and garage kept since. During the restoration, a small amount of rust was found in the driver's floor, so it was replaced.
The tires are excellent, the battery is new and the carburetors and fuel pump have recently been rebuilt with kits to allow for use with today's ethanol gasoline. The exhaust system is stainless as are the wire wheels. .Included with the car are the original tools shown, as well as the original owner's manual, shop manual and other dealer's paperwork shown in the photos.
The car is located near Birmingham, Al, and if you want to fly in to view or drive the car, we will arrange to pick you up at the airport, take you to see the car and then return you to the airport. Please look at the photos and video : ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUAbrO0CKi0&feature=youtube_gdata ) carefully and ask any questions before bidding. Since the car is a 47 year old British sports car, it is sold as is, where is. The owner feels that he is not currently able to enjoy the car as much as he would like and believes that someone else might be able to give the car the attention it deserves.
Alabama did not issue titles prior to 1976, (http://www.alabama.gov/sliverheader/Welcome.do?url=http://ador.alabama.gov/motorvehicle/Title_FAQ.html) so the car will be sold with a bill of sale only. We can provide a certified letter from the state saying that no title exists for the car. We can arrange shipping, including delivery of the car to a port city for overseas sales.
The prices on these beautiful cars are trending upward again, so it is likely an excellent time to invest. Here is a link to Hagerty Insurance price guide to give you an overview of recent values: http://www.hagerty.com/valuationtools/HVT/VehicleSearch/Report?vc=862612

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
2016 Jaguar XE pounces on the Parisian port
Thu, 02 Oct 2014It's been about five years since Jaguar discontinued the misguided X-Type and exited the compact luxury sedan market, but today marks the British automaker's re-entry into the segment with the public debut of the all-new XE.
Pitted against the likes of the BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the new Jaguar XE is based on an all-new aluminum architecture that will underpin many new felines to follow, and packs a new family of four-cylinder engines. That is, aside from the range-topping XE S pictured above, with the super-six borrowed from the F-Type.
Conservatively styled but elegant and uniquely Jaguar, the XE isn't set to arrive Stateside until 2016. So unless you're planning a trip overseas (with a stop at a Jaguar showroom on the itinerary), our gallery of live shots from the floor of the Paris Motor Show here at the Porte de Versailles may be the best look you'll be getting at Coventry's latest for the next couple of years.
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.
