I am selling this for a good Jaguar customer from my shop. 

1974 Jaguar XJ12L or XJ12 L long wheel base. 

V12 Automatic 
74,000 miles
Original Motor with original carburetors. 
Very Clean
 
It is a 2 owner car, the current whom has owned since 1979.  The vehicle ran and drove fine but has been in storage for over 10 years.  The owner states that he was told the carburetors were leaking, and that it may be a fire hazard.  He put it in storage out of the weather, with the intent to get it repaired but never got around to it because it was a second or third car.  He's tired of paying for storage and wants to sell it.  It is in a heated warehouse.  All reasonable offers will be considered. 

EXTERIOR:  Has a few blemishes (see pictures), but overall very good, with no body rust.  The undercarriage has minimal surface rust with nothing serious. 

INTERIOR:
Has a small blemish on driver's door panel.  Has one crack in the dash on the passenger side.  Vinyl is excellent.  Wood is Good.  Chrome and carpets are perfect. 

MECHANICAL:
Engine is sound.  Will turn over, and attempts to start.  We recommend rebuild the carbs before doing much more, as the leaking carbs create a fire hazard. 

ELECTRICAL:
As far as we know, everything worked at the time it was put in storage.  Today, the left rear door seems to not unlock.  Not sure if it is a mechanical problem or not.

Lots of original paperwork and records

Please call if you have questions or to arrange an inspection.  Thanks for looking

Jaguar releases C-X75 concept build story

Thu, 27 Jun 2013

If you want to know what was going through the minds of decisionmakers at Jaguar when the company decided to build the batty C-X75 Concept, look no further than the quick video after the jump. Jaguar set about building a car with the performance of a Bugatti Veyron, the electric range of a Chevrolet Volt and the emissions of a Toyota Prius, and they turned to a legendary engineering firm to help make it happen. Williams, the same crew behind Williams F1, helped Jaguar stitch the concept car together, and the result is unlike anything we've seen before.
The twin-charged 1.6-liter four-cylinder mounted amidship is paired with an electric motor at each wheel for a combined output of over 850 horsepower. And, since the whole chassis is hewn from carbon fiber, a production version would've been light enough to give machines like the McLaren P1 and Ferrari LaFerrari a run for their money. Shame they apparently couldn't make the business case work. Watch the concept build story in the video below for yourself.

2014 Jaguar XJL AWD 3.0

Wed, 25 Jun 2014

A bit of British nobility floods the senses when piloting the 2014 Jaguar XJ. It's an emotional rush, a perception based on physical surroundings that influence the mind in much the same manner that a stein of pilsner tastes best when consumed in a German beer garden and no sand is softer than that found on a warm Caribbean beach. Jaguar has been assembling cars for nearly 100 years, and few automakers are as equally adept at capturing aristocracy and timelessness within the rich cabins of their luxury offerings.
Jaguar would have no concern if it were the only game in town, but that's far from the truth. The premium full-size luxury segment, which includes vehicles hovering just under or at the six-figure mark, is a contentious grouping that includes the Audi A8, BMW 7 Series, Lexus LS, Mercedes-Benz S-Class and Porsche Panamera. Each of those brings its own game to the battle, and none are easy to dismiss.
To better understand the British perspective and evaluate its latest offering on a land without royalty, I recently spent a week with a long-wheelbase, all-wheel-drive Jaguar XJ in Southern California.
