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 |

2014 Jaguar XJR unleashed just ahead of New York show [w/video]
Tue, 26 Mar 2013Just a week after teasing us with the first image of the car, and mere hours before revealing it to the public at the New York Auto Show, Jaguar has pulled the wraps off of its 2014 XJR super sedan.
The British automaker has confirmed that the XJR will be kicking out a full 550-horsepower and 502 pound-feet of torque from its supercharged 5.0-liter V8, affording the sedan a 0-60 mile per hour sprint of 4.4 seconds and a top speed of 174 miles per hour. A ZF eight-speed automatic transmission will still allow for respectable fuel economy, as Jag estimates ratings of 15 miles per gallon city and 23 highway.
Newly tuned dampers and stiffer spring rates, along with an electronically controlled differential should ensure that the massive power of the engine isn't wasted in transition to the road. Jaguar has also tweaked steering software and hydraulics, with the goal of increased road feel, response and overall feedback. 20-inch signature wheels carry wide Pirelli rubber (265-section up front, 295 in back) to keep the XJR planted.
Jaguar buys world's largest collection of British cars
Mon, 28 Jul 2014Whether you're looking at Bertone going bankrupt or Spyker facing (and subsequently resolving) a large tax bill, it's saddening to see an automaker having to sell off its factory collection. That's why we're glad to report that there are still some acquiring historic vehicles from their pasts. Like Jaguar, which has just bought the largest private collection of classic British cars in the world.
The collection of 543 cars was painstakingly assembled by one James Hull, a British dentist with some 50 dental clinics to his name across the UK and who was keen to find the right buyer to take possession of his life's work and preserve it for years to come.
Of those 543 cars, the majority are of British origin, including over 130 Jaguars. The collection includes seven XK120s, several C- and D-Types, a rare XKSS, eight E-Types, thirty Mark-series Jaguar sedans, nineteen XJS coupes and convertibles, some twenty XJ sedans as well as some pre-war SS models and Swallow sidecars and coachbuilt specials from the company's early days. Among the many noteworthy examples are a rare SS100, an alloy-bodied XK120 and an MK X owned by company founder Sir William Lyons himself, as well as Winston Churchill's Austin, Elton John's Bentley, and racing driver and motorcycle rider Mike Hailwood's E-Type.
2015 Jaguar F-Type V6 S Coupe
Wed, 03 Sep 2014My first, ill-fated job in the auto world was at an exotic car dealer in metro Detroit. The job itself sucked, but the cars, they were exceptional. Amidst a sea of Tiptronic Porsche Boxsters, first-gen Mercedes-Benz SLKs and abused second-generation Range Rovers, there were some real gems.
In particular, I have fond memories of a trio of undrivable Jaguar E-Types. Two Series II coupes as well as a Series III convertible (that featured a mostly broken roof) spent the entirety of my brief tenure at the dealership in the back of the musty service garage. I'd make side trips through there just to see the trio of E-Types, which rarely failed to put a big, ridiculous grin on my face.
Since that time in the summer of 2005, there hasn't been a single Jag that's been capable of eliciting the same goofy smile. Not the XFR-S, with its un-aristocratic wing, nor the XKR-S. At the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show, though, Jaguar introduced this F-Type Coupe. Sure, the droptop model had been around for a bit, but I thought it was the new coupe that most captured the E-Type's classic aesthetic, with a swooping roofline, those gorgeous rear haunches and a long, powerful hood. I had to drive one.
