This is car for collector . I had old paint stripped to the metal and redone with complete house of kolor candy paint system . Base cinder red ,top coat pagan gold. All rust issues were removed at the same time including replacement of entire floor with custom made 12 gauge stainless steel panels and new carpets . There is new head gasket and rebuild under 100% supervision borg warner transmission. I toyed with interiors replacing everything with embossed leather -type western floral color saddle and black plus burgundy basket weave on the back seats . Like all car aficionados I spent enormous time getting it back in shape not mentioning money sufficient to buy new car . I must finally move on and pass this antic to someone who could appreciate owning British made jag and tolerate quirks related to 34 year old car . Runs and drive as it should . All belts ,fluids ,brakes ,hoses,battery are in excellent  condition, no oil leaks or smoke . Buy only if you know what does it mean to maintain older cars . Driving experience is very comfortable for casual driver . Engine has no governor and spins up to 6000 RPM  . Tires have 95 % life left  - Goodyear tripletread  specially selected for hydroplaning resistance and ice, snow traction.

Whoever is interested in this car will get excellent deal considering I'm selling it for less than 1/3  of the value on insurance policy . These cars are very rare today in condition above junk .Typical situation are rusted through floor panels hidden under underbody coating - you won't find anything like that in my car . I recommend American Collectors Insurance - coverage similar or better than good new car policy at 160$ per year

feel free to ask for more questions, , I have some flexibility regarding selling price.  I really feel sorry that car so nice is sitting idle for years , buy it and you'll have excellent toy to play over the weekend

2015 Jaguar F-Type Coupe is a seriously pretty kitty

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

The F-Type roadster is a beautiful car, but if we're honest, the coupe might be even more so. The hard top creates a smooth, uninterrupted line from the windshield all the way back to the rear of the car, the kinked-up rear-quarter windows are a nice touch and, overall, the design looks more organic than the roadster.
With the coupe's introduction also comes a new engine in the F-Type lineup, the 550-horsepower 5.0-liter supercharged V8 found in the XFR-S and XKR-S, and it's fitted to the top model, the F-Type R Coupe. The 495-hp mill in the V8 S roadster won't be an option in the coupe, however, but we're okay with that because Jaguar claims the 550-hp variant will scoot to 60 mph in just four seconds. Jaguar also will offer the base F-Type Coupe, with a 340-hp 3.0-liter supercharged V6, and the F-Type S Coupe, which has the same engine tuned to 380 hp. The base and mid-level models are quite quick, and can accelerate from 0-60 mph in 5.1 and 4.8 seconds, respectively.
The F-Type Coupe is priced starting from $65,000, the S Coupe adds $12,000 and the R Coupe starts at $99,000 (prices don't include $895 destination fee). For more F-Type Coupe info, check out our previous post on it, or head on below to read the press release.

Jay Leno's Garage features funnyman's 1963 Jaguar E-Type

Thu, 25 Apr 2013

Jay Leno looks inward on this episode of his eponymous garage, checking out a 1963 Jaguar XKE that he bought earlier this year. It is an example of his favorite kind of car, that being original and unrestored. He bought the E-Type from its first owner, a woman who purchased it new, held on to it for 50 years and took excellent care of it. Having never been in an accident, Leno says even the paint is 85- to 90-percent original.
In the video, the XKE sits in front of two heavily modded XK120s and another '63 XKE, but Leno said all he's done - and all he plans to do - is clean it up and put on a modern set of wire wheels for safety.
He's not on any junket and there are no guests, it's just a guy talking about an object dear to his heart. If you need a refresher on the excellent genes of the new F-Type, check out the video below.

Jaguar lets first outsiders drive new F-Type

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

What do you do when you're an automaker with an all-new and brand-defining sports car, one of them with a supercharged V8 cranking out 495 horsepower? You let proven race drivers test them out on track and on the road.
And what do you do if you're Jaguar and you're in that situation? Why, naturally, you make a video of it. That's how we get footage of racers Martin Brundle, Justin Bell and Christian Danner being choppered into the UK's Snetterton track to test the V6-equipped Jaguar F-Type S prototype. Then when they're finished with kerb-lined apexes, they take the V8 S prototype out onto the roads to run it through hedge-lined apexes.
According to one of them, "very fast, very nimble, great engine" is what will soon be headed our way. Check it out in the video below.
