1972 JAGUAR E-TYPE V12 CONVERTIBLE

Up for auction is an un-restored all original '72 Jaguar E-Type Convertible w/ 29,000 original miles.  Everything is original and numbers matching. Completely rust free California car, still has the California plates on it from the last time it was registered.  $8000.00 was just spent on having the engine and mechanics completely gone through and it runs excellent.  You wont be disappointed.  The car is located less than 1 miles from the Cincinnati International Airport, you could fly in and drive it home if you choose.

The Engine runs excellent.  It has the 5.3L V-12 engine.  No issues.  It fires right up.  It is all original except for the plugs, wires, coil and battery of course.  Needs nothing.

The Transmission shifts good.  I have found no issues with it,  Shifts just like it should.

The Drivetrain is good.  Tires are good.  It drives straight.  It feels tight.  No strange noises or issues.  The braking system was gone through and works great.  The suspension is original and was found to have no issues.  No rust.

The Interior is great.  Its all original, and in good condition. The leather is great.  The dash has no cracks.  All the gauges work.  The door panels are excellent.  The boot release works.  The convertible top and top frame is excellent and works with no issues.  The carpet is clean and it has the original floor mats in good shape.  All the lights work. The heat works.  The e-brake works.  You will not be disappointed with the interior its near perfect. It has the original wire wheel spare tire w/ the original Michelin tire.  There is a slight issue with the driver seat, when you move the back of the seat the lever does not always catch immediately, but if you play with it it will catch, needs a little attention.

The Exterior is good.  It has the original paint on it and is not with out it's flaws as it is 40 years old, however as you can see in the pics it is in good over all condition, and shines beautifully, with a few scratches and a few blemishes.  It has a spot on the rear deck in front of the trunk lid right in the middle, see pic, which I would say is one of its biggest flaws, it appears to me to be cracked paint, about a half dollar in size.  Its other biggest flaw in the paint is around where the hard top sits, but that is to be expected,  it has some small light scratching, I would say 3 to 4 noticeable spots.  Other than that it may have 1 or 2 other tiny blemishes just from being 40 yr old paint, but again its in great condition for its age.  The body is rust free, dent free, ding free.  The chrome shines nicely.  The wheels are beautiful.  The convertible top is great, never been in the elements what so ever, no issues with it.  It comes with a Hard Top, the hard top is in good condition.  The car has never seen rain, underneath is rust free.  The exhaust is good.  

If you have any questions or you would like to schedule a time to see the car please feel free to call me anytime 859-803-0858.  My name is John.

All-electric Jaguar XJ coming soon on platform shared with 'Road Rover'

Mon, Jun 24 2019

We've been posting on the likelihood of electric Jaguars for a while now, especially the XJ leading the charge as a new EV flagship. Rumors at the beginning of 2018 predicted an XJ EV on our doorstep by the end of 2018, the 50th anniversary year of the XJ. By April this year, it was looking like the battery-powered XJ would use the I-Pace platform and make an appearance sometime in 2019. Now, Automotive News Europe reports that during Jaguar Land Rover's Investor's Day presentations, the automaker said it would debut a "large SUV and a large premium sedan" on its Modular Longitudinal Architecture (MLA) suitable for EVs, hybrids and traditional ICE-powered cars. The sedan in question is the next-gen XJ. Nick Rogers, JLR's product engineering boss, said electric MLA vehicles will get 90.2-kWh batteries that return range of up to 400 kilometers (292 miles) on the European cycle. That would effectively be the same size battery as the I-Pace, which rides on its own one-off platform, and the same range; in the U.S., the I-Pace is rated at 234 miles. It's said the XJ's design, produced by former Jaguar design chief Ian Callum and his team, has already been cleared. It swaps the four-door body for a five-door, a la the Audi A7, and introduces a new design language for the car and the carmaker. Car and Driver says the new statement sedan aims to be "a cutting-edge alternative to the BMW 7 Series and Mercedes-Benz S-Class," and Autocar saying it will "remain Jaguar's flagship in preference to a large SUV, such as the rumored J-Pace." The point of introducing the EV first is to establish the car's technology and sporting credentials — hopefully before the Porsche Taycan and Audi E-Tron GT arrive. Eventually, an ICE version of the XJ powered by an Ingenium inline-six should come; that will welcome buyers not ready to make the all-EV switch, a necessary move in keeping with the XJ's competition for global sales with the S-Class and 7 Series. However, leaving room in the design for a conventional drivetrain will force compromises that the all-electric competition doesn't face. Production of the current XJ ends at the Castle Bromwich facility on July 5. The new sedan is slated to be "announced in the near future" and built at JLR's plant in Solihull, which assembles Land Rover products. The same MLA platform will support a road-focused Land Rover as a sibling to the XJ, dubbed the "Road Rover" internally.

Jaguar crossover won't be based on Evoque or have off-road chops

Wed, 21 Aug 2013

Jaguar's long-rumored crossover won't be built on the same platform as the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, says the Australian site Car Advice. The future of the new CUV remains uncertain, but if Jaguar does dip its toes into the SUV/crossover pool, though, the new vehicle will likely be a car-based soft roader, lacking (or perhaps more appropriately, not needing) the off-road-engineered chops inherent in Land Rover's small CUV platform.
Jaguar product planner Steven De Ploey explained to Car Advice, "There's many groups around the world [platform sharing] - obviously Volkswagen Group is doing it all the time - but I think we have to be careful. He added, "Jaguar is something quite different... It's about capability, but very much on-road focused capability." That seems to gel with our suspicions that the XQ, as it's expected to be called, will share its platform with an upcoming small Jaguar sedan, the oft-rumored X-Type successor.
Still, we'd recommend taking any mention of a Jaguar crossover with a grain of salt. Based on many of the (quite compelling) statements made by De Ploey against a Jag crossover and previous statements made by Jag's design boss, Ian Callum, the case against a leaper-bearing crossover seems strong. If a high-rider were to arrive from Jaguar, though, the article insinuates that it'd be more in line with the BMW X6 or upcoming X4 - sort of a coupe-based crossover. Like we said, grain of salt. If a Jag crossover is going to arrive soon, the upcoming Frankfurt Motor Show is the most likely locale for its debut. We'll find out in a few weeks.

Jaguar I-Pace EV will finally be revealed, available to order March 1

Wed, Jan 31 2018

It sure feels like the Jaguar I-Pace electric car concept was revealed longer ago than November 2016. That might be because in addition to running barely camouflaged production models around for months, the company has even announced a one-make race series with the car before we've seen the revealed production model. But the wait is almost over. The company finally announced a reveal date of March 1. This comes just before the Geneva Motor Show, and the debut will be shown on a livestream. Not only that, but Jaguar will be taking orders for the EV the same day. Reveal and order dates weren't the only things Jaguar announced regarding the I-Pace. The company also said the I-Pace will be able to get an 80 percent charge from a DC fast charger in just 45 minutes. This charge time necessitates a 100-kW fast charger, though, so that time may vary in real life based on what chargers are available. This is also greater charging capability than Jaguar claimed when the concept was revealed, which promised an 80 percent charge in two hours on a 50-kW fast charger. Jaguar hasn't revealed many other details about the production car yet. When the concept was shown, Jaguar claimed it made 400 horsepower and had a range of 220 miles. The prototypes we've seen on the road also look extremely similar to the concept, so there shouldn't be much, if any, disappointment in the styling department when it's revealed. Related Video:
