Listed for sale, is this 2003 Jaguar X-Type AWD with 75k original miles.  Up until 5 days ago, the car ran and drove great.  Now it will not start, and the mechanics can't figure out why.  We initially thought it was the fuel pump, but that doesn't seem to be the problem.  We also checked the battery cables and fuses, and those seem to be fine.  One mechanic said it could be the engine, but the car is turn over (just not cranking), which is usually not a sign of a bad engine.  Plus, it only has 75K miles on it, which is low for an engine to go bad.  Nonetheless, we did price an engine for $500, but the owner didn't want to go that route.

The interior is in good condition with minimal wear and tear.  There are some minor rips in the leather, but the leather, carpet, and dash areas are clean.   The exterior is also in good condition. There is slight damage on the right fender and bumper area, but doesn't take away from the car's stunning appearance, and the paint looks really good.

Again, this is a NO RESERVE auction; so the highest bid wins.  This repair could be something minor, or it could be an expensive one.  Either way, this is a very good deal.  This car sells for $5500 to $6000.  So it's worth the repair. Your also welcome to view the vehicle before the listing ends.  However, if you have a feedback score less than 5, or have not received feedback within the past 12 months, please contact me before bidding.  If not, you're bid will be cancelled.  

Thanks and Good Luck!

This mule is the first evidence Jaguar is working on a 3 Series fighter

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

Rumors of an entry-level, BMW 3 Series-fighting Jaguar sedan have been floating around for quite some time, but thanks to our intrepid spy photographers, we now have visible proof that such a model is, in fact, in the works.
Despite this tester's XF fittings, it's clear that what lies beneath is an entirely different beast. The doors have been shortened, roofline adjusted, rear deck lopped off and exhaust replaced, giving us a better idea of the new sedan's smaller dimensions and details. The new Jag, which may be dubbed "XS," is expected to ride on Jaguar's PLA (Premium Lightweight Architecture) platform, touting weight-saving materials that should do a lot to keep overall heft to a minimum. Both turbocharged four- and supercharged six-cylinder powertrains are expected to be on tap.
Codenamed X760, the new small sedan will reportedly hit the market in 2015. Earlier reports have indicated that a new crossover - Jag's first ever - riding on the same platform will arrive shortly thereafter, so that suggests that the platform will be fitted with all-wheel drive as well.

Ferrari exec to lead Jaguar North America

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

Jaguar has announced that Jeff Curry will be serving as the brand's new North American vice president, effective August 13. The move is a coup for Jag, which lured Curry away from his previous posting as VP of marketing for Ferrari North America, and is further evidence of just how strong Jaguar's comeback has gotten.
Curry has spent over 20 years in the auto industry, and has worked with Audi, SiriusXM and Land Rover, where he made his start in the industry. His primary responsibilities with Jaguar will cover marketing communications, customer relationship management, and product planning.
Jaguar Land Rover's North American president, Andy Goss, heaped praise on the brand's newest addition saying, "Jeff brings with him extensive automotive and luxury marketing experience, critical expertise in leading-edge technologies and a personal passion for automobiles."

Jay Leno's Garage features funnyman's 1963 Jaguar E-Type

Thu, 25 Apr 2013

Jay Leno looks inward on this episode of his eponymous garage, checking out a 1963 Jaguar XKE that he bought earlier this year. It is an example of his favorite kind of car, that being original and unrestored. He bought the E-Type from its first owner, a woman who purchased it new, held on to it for 50 years and took excellent care of it. Having never been in an accident, Leno says even the paint is 85- to 90-percent original.
In the video, the XKE sits in front of two heavily modded XK120s and another '63 XKE, but Leno said all he's done - and all he plans to do - is clean it up and put on a modern set of wire wheels for safety.
He's not on any junket and there are no guests, it's just a guy talking about an object dear to his heart. If you need a refresher on the excellent genes of the new F-Type, check out the video below.
