This auction is for an 1988 Jaguar XJ6. It is the Sovereign model, not the Van den Plas (ebay catagory doesn't have a Sovereign catagory, so it selected the VDP, so be it known that this is not the VDP model). I am the third owner and have had this nice car for almost 10 years. The previous owners were both doctors and the Jag has always been serviced by high quality Jaguar or European car specialists. The car has 129,000 original miles, I put 50k on it, mostly 10 round trips between Florida and Boston. The the car is designed for a comfortable highway ride, and has great accelleration at high speeds for those long interstate rides. The maintenance history repairs include suspension work, besides brakes and tires, the car has minor work on cosmetics. It does need rear shocks, which are riding ok but making noises. The AC conditioning is the old R12 type and the compressor belt is missing. Door handles and window motors have been replaced as needed, that seems to be the issue with these older Jaguars.   The car has 4 new Yokohama radial tires, it has new front fenders and the sides and hood have been repainted five years ago, due to some rust areas on the front fenders. That has been corrected by replacing  fenders. The clear coat is worn off on the top and the trunk due to the car cover wearing on it. The car has passed the State inspection and has a sticker valid through February 2014. This is a rear wheel drive car, with a full size spare tire. It also has real steel bumpers front and rear. The gas mileage is consitently 21 city and 24 on the long highway runs. The car is 25 years old and is a reliable driver. The original sticker price was around $75,000 dollars in 1988, but today, its book value is between 3 and 7 thousand. The bid is starting low with a low reserve. The car is sold as is. It is up to the buyer to inspect before taking delivery.  Winning bidder needs to leave a deposit and pick up the vehicle within 7 days. Deposit will be returned if seller views car and decides not to purchase before taking delivery. Shipping and taxes are the resposibility of the buyer.

Jaguar Land Rover creates new Special Operations division for halo vehicles, bespoke commissions

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

Jaguar Land Rover has announced that a new division of the British manufacturer will be dedicated to "bespoke commissions," as well as heritage products and apparel. Oh, and the new Special Operations division will also be behind JLR's halo cars from now on.
It's that last one that is the most tantalizing, as the last real halo product to see production from Jaguar was the XJ220. The Range Rover, meanwhile, has always had its own kind of halo reputation, although the Land Rover brand itself has never really gotten into the game with a dedicated model.
According to JLR, the new halo models will focus on ultra-high performance and luxury with a limited run of vehicles. The bespoke models, meanwhile, will give the wealthiest customers full sway over how vehicles are outfitted, with unique paints, trims and other accessories. The new SpecOps division will be run by John Edwards.

Jaguar F-Pace gets 300 Sport and Checkered Flag special editions

Tue, Mar 19 2019

Jaguar has applied the 300 Sport treatment to the F-Pace, as it did with the XE and XF sedans last year, and there's a Checkered Flag treatment for the F-Pace, too. In other markets, the 300 Sport comes with the choice of the 2.0-liter Ingenium four-cylinder gas motor or the 3.0-liter V6 diesel, but we don't get the 3.0-liter diesel in the United States. Exterior tweaks start with dark satin gray trim on the grille and window surrounds, side vents, mirror caps, rear fascia and door finishers. The package wears 22-inch gray wheels and plenty of 300 Sport badges. Three colors are available: Yulong White, Indus Silver and Santorini Black. Inside, yellow contrast stitching on the instrument panel and seats marks the beast, plus embossed logos on the front headrests. The steering wheel, carpet, and sills also get 300 Sport badging. The full-fat Touch Pro navigation with Connect Pro comes standard. Overseas buyers can upgrade with a sliding panoramic roof, but all U.S. F-Pace models come with that. We don't have domestic pricing yet, but UK figures equate to saving almost 50 percent compared to speccing options separately on the gas model, and a savings of about 90 percent on the diesel version. The Checkered Flag Special Edition starts with the R-Sport and adds plenty of gloss black, including 20-inch gloss black wheels. Color choices here are Yulong White, Eiger Grey and Santorini Black. Only the 2.0-liter four-cylinder units get the nod, either the 247-horsepower gas engine or — in other markets — the 237-hp diesel we don't get. Our diesel is a 2.0-liter, 180-hp unit. Spec is a bit reduced compared to the 300 Sport, with 10-way electric front seats instead of 14-way, and the Touch Pro navigation without Connect Pro thrown in standard. A UK buyer would save about 40 percent compared to ordering a la carte.
