1991 CLASSIC XJ6 Jaguar for sale. This is the hard to find Sovereign model, not the more common Vanden Plas. 133xxx original miles. In fact, of the 487 jaguars listed for sale on Ebay at the time of this posting, only two are Sovereigns. I am the third owner of this Sovereign and have driven this jag back and forth to work (50 miles/day) for the past 15 months or so. No problems. Never overheats. No leaks. No uncommon engine noises. No interior rattles. Air and heat works good. Drive train, exhaust, engine - no problems. This jaguar has a unique "sport" button on the center console that reconfigures the rpms and torque for fast get-aways. This will certainly squeel some rubber and turn some heads!
Classic black color with tan leather interior. Lots of chrome - grille, door handles, etc. No rust on the exterior. Tires have a lot of tread, probably 65 percent or so. This model is the one the Queen of England rides around in in the movies! There were only 57,000 Sovereign models made. NADA classifies this car as a "classic" and you can find its value as around $12000 for excellent, $7500 for good to very good, and $5500 for "fair" condition. I would classify this jag as "good" for the simple fact that it needs a professional buff to bring out the color on the top and trunk. The body is in very good condition with only one or two very minor dings on one side and a small blemish on the hood.
There are a few things that do not work on the car: The intermittant wiper works but not properly, the front fog lights I removed because they really dated the car (the wiring harness and bracket are still in place), the power locks do not work (needs new actuators), the little hydraulic lifts in the trunk have lost most of their spunk, an exterior light somewhere is not shining brightly enough which has caused an "idiot" light on the dash to show (little picture of a bulb), the driver's retractable shoulder strap is not working consistantly, the headliner is loose in the very back. Other than that . . . things are in good shape. I have spent several dollars in the past 18 months on these things: new brakes and rotors all around, new gas valve, new fuel pump, new power steering hoses and refill, new head gasket (was leaking), new oil valve (was leaking), new heater brushes and cleaning.
The car has no oil leaks and runs good. I have 5 cars (3 too many) and am just reducing inventory. It is a fun car to drive. I always wanted a jaguar, so I bought this one off an old fellow who had driven it for several years. It has a milage ALLOWANCE for relatively low miles for this age.
The price is right with a low starting bid and NO RESERVE. Hope you win!

Jaguar details new Ingenium four-cylinder engines [w/video]
Mon, 29 Sep 2014When Jaguar lifted the veil on its new XE sports sedan earlier this month, it only revealed details on one engine - that being the 3.0-liter supercharged V6 in the flagship XE S. But we already knew that the British automaker's new entry-level model will offer many other powertrain options, and now it has revealed a little more.
Jaguar has been developing a new family of 2.0-liter four-cylinder engines it calls Ingenium, which will be offered in a wide array of configurations and specifications. In advance of its debut at the upcoming Paris Motor Show, the Leaping Cat marque has announced the specifications of the two diesel versions. The first will offer 161 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque and some of the best environmental credentials on the market. There will also be a more potent version with 177 hp and 317 lb-ft, which Jaguar says is "one of the highest torque outputs in the class." Either way, both versions feature variable exhaust valve timing, cooled low-pressure exhaust gas recirculation and selective catalytic reduction technologies to help meet the stringent Euro 6 standards.
That's all well and fine, but considering that Jaguar doesn't offer diesels in North America, the chances of these oil-burners making their way Stateside seem slim. But if you watch the video below, you'll also find basic specs on their gasoline counterparts as well. Like the diesels, they're turbocharged and displace 2.0 liters, but in petrol form, they offer 197 hp and 206 lb-ft of torque, or 236 hp and 250 lb-ft.
Ferrari exec to lead Jaguar North America
Tue, 06 Aug 2013Jaguar has announced that Jeff Curry will be serving as the brand's new North American vice president, effective August 13. The move is a coup for Jag, which lured Curry away from his previous posting as VP of marketing for Ferrari North America, and is further evidence of just how strong Jaguar's comeback has gotten.
Curry has spent over 20 years in the auto industry, and has worked with Audi, SiriusXM and Land Rover, where he made his start in the industry. His primary responsibilities with Jaguar will cover marketing communications, customer relationship management, and product planning.
Jaguar Land Rover's North American president, Andy Goss, heaped praise on the brand's newest addition saying, "Jeff brings with him extensive automotive and luxury marketing experience, critical expertise in leading-edge technologies and a personal passion for automobiles."
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.
