I picked this car up as a project, but am unable to continue with it. The car is a redo. Originally a California car. Rare Solent Blue color. Had a respray at some point, and lost the vinyl top in the process. The body does have some bubbling at the lower edges of the doors and front wings. Also some rust in the usual places. A respray would be in order. Biscuit interior is original, but needs replacing, as does the carpet. Dash has been restained, but should be replaced. Headliner is good. The engine has had twin downdraft Webers installed at some point. The car runs, but at this time I would not recommend driving it for any distance, as the engine stumbles occasionally under acceleration. Engine and transmission should be gone through. The odometer reads about 35,000 miles, but I have no way to verify the actual mileage. Tires are good, with original steel wheels. Original Stromberg carbs included, as are many other trim items and other parts. The car has had both fuel tanks replaced by me with NOS tanks, brakes redone with new pads, rear rotors and master cylinder replaced. The car is original, and intact. It is a great candidate for a restoration or a restomod. This was the last year for the limited run for the XJC, and this car's color makes it all the more rare. Buyer is responsible for inspecting the car prior to bidding. The vehicle is sold as is where is, without warranty, no warranty expressed or implied. Payment in full is due within five working days from completion of auction. Payment is by Cashier's Check, or PayPal, in U.S. dollars only. Buyer pays all shipping/transport fees. Car is currently licensed, but should be considered as a project, and transported, not driven, to buyer's destination. 1979 XJ12L parts car also available.

2013 Jaguar XF 3.0 Supercharged
Mon, 08 Jul 2013Generally speaking, I don't get too upset about the growing need to replace displacement in modern cars. Sure, there are exceptions (don't you touch my 6.2-liter AMG V8), but honestly, the industry's new forced induction powertrains are all lovely, and their gains in fuel economy - when they actually make good on them - can make up for the ever-so-slight losses in performance or driving character.
But I'm having a hard time keeping my chin up with this Jaguar XF. For the 2013 model year, Jaguar has killed off the naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8 and fitted a supercharged 3.0-liter V6 with an eight-speed automatic in its place (and even offers a turbocharged four-cylinder engine below that). That all sounds perfectly well and good, but a week behind the wheel of this British Racing Green sedan just left me missing that V8. And then some.

Jaguar readying SUV for Frankfurt debut
Thu, 01 Aug 2013In an effort to target higher-volume vehicle segments, Jaguar is getting ready to introduce its first-ever crossover, and Autoweek reports that we could see it debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September. We've heard in the past that the new Jaguar crossover could carry the name XQ, but the report also mentions that the Q-type name is still in the running (now wouldn't Audi just love that?).
A little more clear than the crossover's name, AW says the cargo-friendly Jaguar should ride on the same platform as the upcoming Jaguar XS compact sedan rather than using a Land Rover platform. As for the on-sale date, it still sounds like the XS will hit the roads first in 2015 with the crossover model due out in 2016.
40th Jaguar E-Type ever made sells at auction for lb88k
Wed, 30 Oct 2013The 40th Jaguar E-Type ever built, a right-hand-drive 1961 model, hit the auction block and was bought by an anonymous British buyer for 88,000 pounds ($141,310), ITV reports. The Jaguar had been stored at the previous owner's estate, in dry storage, at a derelict farm in Le Mans, France since July 1974.
E-Type chassis No. 860040 was bought by the previous owner in 1969 and was originally gray. But it was driven home to France and painted it in its current aubergine in 1974, before it was put into storage. During that time it was considered missing by experts, but there it sat under a dust sheet car cover for most of its life, so the body is in good condition. The family mechanic said that the car was last started about five years ago, and the engine recently was turned over. Coys auction house describes the original interior, which is also preserved well, as a "time warp."
Chris Routledge of Coys before the auction said, "They're sort of a mythical beast for enthusiast, at the time they were all handmade on special order, so Jaguar collectors look at the first 100 cars in a different way," BBC News reports. He added, "We estimate it to be worth between 20,000 and 40,000 pounds (about $32,100 to $64,200) but our feedback from collectors and interest worldwide suggests it could sell for between 80,000 and 100,000 pounds (about $128,500 to $160,600)." Of course, his revised estimate was right on target.
