This is your chance to own a one of a kind Jaguar S-type V8. This car needs to have the timing chains and tensioners changed before it cant be driven. Included in this auction are all the genuine Jaguar Parts you will need to complete the job. EVERYTHING from gaskets to chains to bolts is included, if you dropped this car off at the dealership and they told you what all you needed you would have it here. All new gaskets even a new oil filter and antifreeze I bought everything. I bought all of these parts from my Jaguar dealership and they are authentic costing more that the Buy it Now price of this auction. I have had lots of things done to the car including a new transmission 2 years ago for $4,378.09. The car also has brand new shocks on it from where it was lowered. The lowering kit was H&R springs along with the new shocks. There is no wheel rub even with three people in the back seat. Fender sits about an inch off of front and rear fender wells. I also had a new thermostat and thermostat housing along with both breather houses replaced.  

The car was painted by a professional body shop not someone sitting in their garage with spray cans. The paint is SEM Hot Rod black. It is unique because it is flat black but it has a clear coat mixed in with the paint so your paint stays protected from the sun. It was painted about 3 years ago and pain is in great shape just the normal rock chips here and there. I replaced the upper and lower grills on the Jaguar to give it the look of a S-Type R. The grills are made of thick steel and not cheap mesh. The headlights have chrome rings around them that go with the grills. The leaper on the hood was also replaced to go along with the grills and headlights. The taillights are also tinted with NIGHTSHADES but can easily be removed if you do not like it. Car has 19" Baccarat rims all the way around with removable chrome pieces. I got a flat tire and the 4th rim is in the trunk but car has a full sized spare on it.

Car comes with just about every option you could get, sunroof, CATS system, Sport mode option, Navigation, Wood interior.

The interior of the car is in great shape minus the drivers seat which is showing some wear as you would expect from a car that is 14 years old. The windows are tinted fairly dark and you will need to check with local laws to see if they are legal in your area. The battery is located in the trunk of the car and was replaced about a year ago. You could not even buy all of the timing chain parts from jaguar for the buy it now price. Just so you know what kind of a deal you are getting here is a list of what the parts on the car and timing components cost me:

Transmission $4739

Thermostat and housing $300

Timing Parts $2800

Paint job $3100

Chrome Grilles $300

Shocks and lowering spring $800

Chrome Headlight Bezels $80

New Leaper $130

New Headliner $475

Tinted windows $130

Rims $1200

Thermostat and housing $300

HID Headlights and fog lights $200

That's $14,554 all the saving passed on to you.

This is a mechanics delight or someone else who is a bit more savy than me with cars. The certified Jaguar mechanic I had look at it said it can be swapped out in a day and ready to run but I do not have the time or money to fix it right now so I think it should go to someone else who would appreciate it. I am sad to sell is because it is my favorite of all my cars but I do not have a choice.

I have done my best to describe the car to you if you have any questions feel free to ask . I will help with shipping in any way possible. Good Luck and happy Bidding.

Jaguar C-X17 gets liquid metal finish for Dubai show [w/poll]

Sat, 09 Nov 2013

We thought the C-X17 concept looked pretty good when Jaguar unveiled it in Frankfurt a couple of months ago. But that shade of blue, while nice enough, made it look like it shared more than a similar name with the Mazda CX-7. No, what a Jaguar needs is a more luxurious paint job than electric blue. And that's just what the British automaker has given its crossover concept in time for the Dubai Motor Show this week.
What we have here is the same C-X17, but repainted in what Jaguar calls "a lustrous Liquid Aluminum liquid metal finish," and we have but to agree. What do you think? Scope it out in the fresh batch of high-res images above and cast your vote in the poll below.

Jaguar Heritage Driving Experience throws you the keys to the museum

Thu, 16 Oct 2014

As automotive journalists, we get to drive a lot of really cool, high-performance vehicles. It really is the single best thing about this job. However, our access to vehicles is generally limited to the newest offerings on the market. That means, much like the general public, we don't really get access to vintage iron.
Jaguar is trying to rectify that issue for journalist and enthusiast alike, with a new program called the Heritage Driving Experience. It allows British enthusiasts to pop into the brand's Warwickshire testing site, drop anywhere from 100 to 300 pounds ($160 to $480) and go for a spin in some of the brand's most legendary offerings. That includes the more typical classics, like the Mark 2 saloon and the E-Type sports car, but you can also pay for access to stunners like the XK150, XKSS and the race-spec D-Type. In addition to the classics, most of the tests include time in their modern successors. So an hour with the Mark II can be split with time in an XFR-S, while the E-Type is complemented by its spiritual successor, the F-Type.
Most of the events are limited to 30 or 60-minute sessions, although the brand does offer a half-day and full-day event. The former, the Jaguar Le Mans Experience, includes time in the C-Type, D-Type, XKSS and F-Type R. The full-day Grace and Pace Pack, meanwhile, gives you access to nine vehicles, covering a huge gamut. That means time in the C-, D- and E-Type, XK150, Mark II, XKR-S GT and F-Type R, among others. Not surprisingly, prices aren't listed for the half- and full-day pack. Much like Jag's finest cars, if you have to ask, you probably can't afford them.

Jaguar trademarks EV-Type nameplate

Mon, 17 Nov 2014

Green may have been a popular color choice for the classic Jaguar E-Type, but even in Lightweight form (pictured above), it was hardly what you'd call environmentally friendly. Not by today's standards, anyway, with six-, eight- and twelve-cylinder engines displacing between 3.8 and 5.3 liters. But Jaguar looks to be preparing to revive the nameplate - or at least one similar - with a new electric vehicle in the works.
According to the latest intel, Jaguar has applied both in the US and in Europe to trademark the name EV-Type. The implication that it's developing an electric vehicle is clear, as is the reference to its iconic sports car of yore. But more than that, we don't know. We could be looking at an electric version of the current F-Type, a project to convert original E-Types to electric power or a different model altogether.
It wouldn't be the first time, of course, that we'd see Jaguar toying with the idea of electric propulsion. A couple of years ago, the British automaker demonstrated a plug-in hybrid XJ_e prototype, and showcased both the C-X16 and C-X75 concepts with advanced hybrid powertrains. But it has yet to put any such system into production, relying instead on the small diesels it sells in Europe to keep its carbon footprint small.
