Specifications and History I bought this always southern California car in 2011. I have used it as my daily driver until 12/2014. I serviced the car regularly with a Jaguar specialist in Pasadena. It has always been garaged at night. Fuel has always been premium and the oil has always been Valvoline VR1. I never had any breakdowns or failures to start. The drivetrain runs strong and smooth. The A/C blows cold but the Jaguar fans don't move a lot of air. Everything works except the rear window defrost, the clock, and the radio. The original radio is still in the car. The previous owner bought the car in 1999. He did extensive work with receipts totaling over 15,000. He replaced the original engine with a series III Jaguar XJ6 engine. The engine still has 2 Stromberg 175s and the pervious owner made custom intake manifolds and needles for them. The seats were replaced with series III seats and the original series I seats are included but will need to be reupholstered. The car has always run strong for me and it has been quite reliable. It has never overheated; never past the "r" in "normal" on the gauge. Major Repairs 2003 repaint 2003 new door and window seals 2005 rebuilt Borg-Warner Model 8 transmission and converter 2006 new headliner...etc

Jaguar producing short film starring Damian Lewis from Homeland [w/video]

Fri, 30 Nov 2012

Jaguar is working up a short film to coincide with the US debut of the company's new F-Type. Desire will feature actor Damian Lewis in the lead role opposite Jordi Molla as the main villain in the story. The whole of the action will take place against the picturesque backdrop of the Chilean desert with filming starting early next month. According to Jaguar, the story will follow Lewis as he plays Clark, a man who delivers cars for living. Things get exciting when he crosses paths with a young woman played by Shannyn Sossamon.
With music by Lana Del Rey and some serious production value, Desire sounds keen to take its place among great automotive advertising short films like the BMW Driver series. Jaguar has released a quick teaser, which you can check out by heading over to the F-Type site. You may also take a peek at the full press release below for more information. Expect to see the film debut early next year.

Watch the trailer for Jaguar's short film staring the F-Type and Damian Lewis

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Jaguar continues to think well outside of the box when it comes to marketing it's new F-Type, now furthering plans for a short film which highlights the sexy roadster. Desire, featuring Damian Lewis (star of the hit series Homeland), Jordi Mollà (unforgettable in Bad Boys II) and Shannyn Sossamon (that girl you had a crush on for like a month in 2002 after you rented A Knight's Tale), Jaguar is clearly pulling out all the stops for this one. Well, nearly all the stops anyway - the "Ridley Scott Associates" billing isn't quite the same has having the man himself, if we're splitting hairs.
The short video below is still just a trailer for Desire - the full film will make its debut sometime in April, we're told. The sketched out plotlines tell us that Lewis' character Clark, "...delivers cars for a living, running into trouble after a chance encounter with a mysterious, young woman (Sossamon) in the middle of a lawless desert." The car looks good, at any rate.
Call us crazy, but the Desire trailer feels an awful lot like a spoof on the cool-but-overly-serious short films that BMW has done in this vein, already. Maybe we're just being cynical? Tell us what you think in comments after watching the clip.

Watch new Jaguar XF perform a literal high-wire act

Thu, Mar 26 2015

Coming out with a new luxury sedan can be a truly daunting prospect. Make it too edgy and you'll risk disenfranchising what can often be a rather conservative customer base. Make it too conservative and you may fail to attract enough new customers or generate enough interest to make the endeavor worthwhile. Whether Jaguar succeeded in walking that thin line with the new XF is a matter of personal taste, blending as it does elements from the smaller XE and the outgoing XF it replaces. But in launching the new model, Jaguar didn't just pull of a figurative high-wire act – it did quite a literal one. To drum up support for its newest debut, Jaguar undertook the stunt depicted in the video above, stringing a pair of carbon-fiber cables some 60 feet above the River Thames in London. With some guide wires and counterbalance weights to keep it all in check, and a motion-picture stunt crew orchestrating it all, the new XF drove over 780 feet from one bank of the river to the other, setting a new world record in the process. Instead of thinking too hard about the whys (seriously, though... why?) and hows, we suggest you just watch the video above. Related Video:
