Jaguar XJ6 VDP X300 4.2L 1995 2 owners

We are moving back to Europe and saddly I have do depart from my beloved Jaguar !

This car has only 95 000 miles since new and I am the second owner.

This car has spent 99% of its life inside a garage at night.

This car is really superb ansd spotless but does need a bit of attention so if you are electrically minded this is the deal for you. I give you the details below.

This is the LAST of the true Jaguar. It is a VDP version.

It is a NON SMOKER CAR !

Most probably nobody ever sat on the back seats (I do not have any kids nor family here and the former owner was as well an older gentleman.

As it is an English automobile it has a ghost in it, not a bad ghost but a rather curious one !

Car comes with original documents and leather pouch

Car comes with printed (and on CD’s) all Jaguar shop and techical manuals

What I had done to this car :

1 - Complete brand new fuel line (less than 2000 miles ago)

2 - New rear brake pads (less than 1000 miles ago

4 - New serpentine and airco belts (lass than 200 miles ago)

4 - 4 x good tires installed (less than 1000 miles ago) they were not new ones but good second hand ones

5 - New water temperature sensor and thermostat

6 - New fog light bulbs, new tail light bulbs

7 – Airco has been recharged

8 – New air filter

9– I will have the oil and oil filter changed prior to sale

This car runs strong and  DOES NOT BURN A DROP OF OIL

Very strong automatic transmission (classic or sportshiting)

This car starts when you just show the key !

Very good ans strong battery

Very good spare tire

Car jack has never been used  to my knowledge

It has a superb multiple speakers stereo radio/6 CD player by Harman Kardon

I also have a small jar of original color leather tint (enough to do plenty of tinting when the day will come)

Comes even with original bill of sale and most maintenance bills

If you want the quality, the prestige the ride and the power of a superb Jaguar at the price of an horrible Toyota, this is the car for you !

This car never had an accident not even a scratch

This car has never seen snow, sleet or ice ! ! ! (North Carolinian car) There is no rust nowere. A

All rubbers are good

I will give you as well all the cleaning and maintenance products I have for this car

ALL CHROMES ARE SUPERB !

Very nice clean interior

NC Technical control/inspection  perfect and good till June 2014

What the TLC the  needs (I am not a mechanic nor a car electrician)

There is a malicious electrical ghost/gremlin in the driver’s door and most probably in the wiring between the trunk lid right hinge and the back seat electrical fuse box. There are no lillumination lights when opening the doors, nor in the dashboard or console (but all dashboard lights and instruments are working) If you put in one of the fuse in the rear underseat fuse box all the illumination lights of the dash board are working ! I learned about this through the Jaguar Owner’s forums. It seems tham most Jag owners do know about this ghost. Most probably due to a microswitch in the driver’s door. I do have a ton of new relays, microswitches and other costly spare parts coming with this car (see below).

The driver’s door lock is hard to operat with the key (again door panel needs to be removed to access to the cable controlling the key to something – again according to knowlegeable guys on the Jaguar Forums

All power stuff is working

I do believe that the right side catalytic converter on the exhaust has to be cleaned one of these days (a Jag specialist, whom I respect, in Connecticut, told me that the cat converter on that model Jaguar should not be replaced and should be cleaned as they are extremely well built and solid).

The car comes with many brand new spare parts which I boughtfor over $1000.00  from another local Jag owner – restorer leaving for Europe as wel,l last year)

Brand new head gasket

New brake pads

New oil filters

Several new relays and micro switches

New timing chains

Second hand coils ( 5 or 6 of them)

A complete under the hood electrical harness

Some computer units – for lights, CPU, transmission or other things (I am not knowledgeable of)

Some front end links or parts

And a bunch of other stuff. There are quite a lot

This car will drive any distance and is ready for another 100 000 miles minimum !

IMPORTANT: If you want to drive the car away you will need your own plates and insurance as I have to surrender plates and insurance upon sale. Delivery has to be done on a week day during office hours as the title of the car has to be filled and surrendered to new owner in front of a public notary

Do not hesitate to contact me if you have questions

Please only bid if you can pay for the car, I have had enough bummers and scammers so far. Thank you

Jaguar F-Type pitted against Porsche 911 Cabriolet by Tiff Needell

Wed, 24 Apr 2013

You knew it wouldn't take long and it looks like EVO is first onto YouTube with a battle between the 2014 Jaguar F-Type and the 2013 Porsche 911. Tiff Needell spends a few laps warming up the tires (read: drifting like mad) in each droptop before getting in a timed run to see who's champion and who's second best.
Before the bell rings, its the Porsche that's got everything to lose, the 50-year-old era-defining sportscar getting on with a 3.4-liter flat-six, 350 horsepower, a seven-speed manual and a 3,197-pound curb weight. Other sportscars, like the F-Type, continue to eye the 911 like a flag atop Everest that they plan to first touch, and then rip from its socket. The mid-trim Jaguar rolls into the contest with a 3.0-liter supercharged V6 with 380 hp, an eight-speed automatic with paddle shifters and a curb weight of 3,521 pounds.
The video below shows you what happens when you let all those numbers fight it out on the same stretch of curvy track. Check it out.

Jaguar practiced the E-Pace barrel roll - wait, how do you practice a barrel roll?

Tue, Jul 25 2017

Jaguar launched the E-Pace compact crossover by literally launching it into a barrel roll. But to get to the point where the company could do the stunt in front of the press naturally took plenty of preparation and planning, and the company documented much of it in the video above. It turns out that the early stages of preparing the stunt are about as entertaining as the stunt itself. The video spends a little time showing some of the computer modeling and designing of the stunt, but most of the video covers the practice runs done with a test car. Jaguar set up its prototype offset ramp for initiating the roll, and had a massive airbag set up for the test car to land in. And early on, to make sure the stunt driver wasn't hurt, they rigged up a Land Rover Evoque with autonomous driving equipment to do the first runs. Later the stunt driver took a few turns. The testing resulted in flips and tumbles you've only seen with Hot Wheels cars. It's so strange and fun to see a full-size car launched this way. Once the team finally had the jump pretty well dialed in, the stunt driver was able to test it launching from ramp to ramp, and then eventually do it in the production E-Pace at the crossover's reveal.

Jaguar I-Pace vs. Tesla Model 3 and other EVs: How they compare on paper

Thu, Mar 1 2018

The 200-mile club of electric vehicles is really growing. The most recent member is the Jaguar I-Pace, the company's first pure EV. It promises luxury, performance, style, and most important, good range. Nearly as recent is the Hyundai Kona EV, and while it doesn't promise luxury or performance like the Jaguar (it's also smaller), it does pack impressive range. With the introduction of both of these electric cars, we thought we would see how they compare against each other, and the other two big names in high-capacity electric cars: the Chevy Bolt EV and the Tesla Model 3. This isn't intended to be a direct, apples-to-apples comparison, as the four are quite different. If anything, they break into two groups: bigger and more luxurious, and smaller and less expensive. Then again, the number of vehicles with this electric range is small and comparisons to EV's with less range wouldn't be too kind to the other guys. If you want to learn more about these EVs, and compare them with other cars, be sure to check out our Car Finder and comparison tools. Horsepower and torque There is one clear winner here, and that's the Jaguar I-Pace. It packs a whopping 394 horsepower and 512 pound-feet of torque. That comes through a pair of electric motors (one at the front, another at the rear) that provide the Jag with all-wheel drive, the only one of these vehicles to offer it (at the moment). Altogether, it allows the I-Pace to have the best 0-60 mph time of 4.5 seconds. At the other end of the spectrum is the Hyundai Kona EV. It's front-drive, like the Bolt EV, and has effectively the same amount of horsepower as the Chevy at 201 horsepower, but its 0-60-mph time is almost a second slower. And the low-range version of the Kona, excluded because it doesn't go more than 200 miles between charges, is slower still. The Tesla Model 3 is the only vehicle with rear-wheel drive, and with a 0-60 mph of 5.1 seconds for the Long Range model, it is still very quick. Range and energy use Frequently, the all-consuming question with electric cars is, "How far can I go on a charge?" And to go the farthest, you need the long-range Tesla Model 3. It can go 310 miles. It has the added advantage of being able to use the network of Tesla Supercharger stations, though they are pay-per-use with the Model 3. Even the lower capacity Model 3, with just 220 miles of range, can use these stations.
