Up for auction is 1999 Jaguar VandenPlas. Everything works just fine on the car, and the car has no warnings or check engine lights active. The engine and transmission were both changed two years ago with ones which had around 70k miles on them - so now they have seen around 80k-85k miles.The tires are realtively new and have less than 10k miles on them. The car has a current inspection sticker good until January 14.

The interior is fine, but the driver seat is a little worn. I have the leather refacing material - but it is now too cold out to apply the material correctly. I have had to reface the drivers seat every year since I owned the car.

The front drivers side wheel bearing shakes a little when the car goes around 70 MPH, and the steering rack seal on the right side leaked a little (I put some Lucas "power steering stop leak" and that seems to be fine. The hood center and trunk hood center had the clear coat cracking. I sprayed some paint and some clearcoat over those areas. Someone could probably do a better job thanI did. The car will NOT pass a mass inspection because of some rust connecting the floor pans to the rocker frame. It is a common problem with these cars, and the rust is localized in these areas.

Jaguar launches the new E-Pace into a barrel roll | Autoblog Minute

Fri, Jul 14 2017

After months of testing – some of which we caught in spy photos – and a little teasing, Jaguar has officially entered the compact crossover space with the launch of the 2018 E-Pace. And it was a fairly grand entry, too.

Land Rover knows where you're going and how you want to get there

Thu, 10 Jul 2014

Land Rover makes some of the most capable SUVs on or off the road, and some of the most luxurious too. But the British automaker isn't about to rest on those laurels - not when every other automaker assaults its territory with sport-utes of their own. That's why Land Rover has been working so hard on nifty new technologies from a depth-sounder in the door mirror of the Range Rover Sport an augmented-reality head-up display that makes the whole front of the car virtually disappear.
JLR's newest tech may not be ground-breaking, but its integration promises to make driving around town that much easier. The system syncs with the driver's smartphone and uses all manner of parameters - including driver habits, weather and location as well as the presence of other passengers - to make the commute go as smoothly as possible. Get into the car and it'll set the seat and mirrors for you. No big deal, because lots of cars do that. But it'll also set up the nav system to take you to work and the sound system to play your favorite music. Okay, getting more interesting.
Get in with your kids and it'll know not only that you've got to drop them off at school first (or remind you to pack their gym bag if they've got soccer practice after school that day) but that they might not enjoy that Chumbawamba album you've been listening to since college and it'll play something it knows you'll all enjoy based on your listening history. Then it'll switch back to Tubthumping once the kids are out, remind you of your morning meeting and alert those you're scheduled to meet with if you get stuck in traffic while finding you a better route to get there, monitoring fuel levels all the while and telling you if you'll need to tank up before you reach your destination. It knows if you like calling your mother on the drive to work and will lower the air suspension to make it easier to hop out once you get there.

Motor Trend pits Aston V12 Vantage S against Jaguar XKR-S GT in battle of the Brits

Fri, 20 Dec 2013

With the recent increase in higher-performance versions of already high-performance vehicles, like Mercedes-Benz and its AMG Black Series, the public is now gaining even greater access to speed and maneuverability. Two of the most recent sports cars to get their wicks turned up include the Jaguar XKR-S GT and the Aston Martin V12 Vantage S.
Both of these cars are the pinnacles of their lines, with the Jag lording over the XKR-S, XKR and XK while the Aston rules over the standard V8 Vantage S and V8 Vantage. Motor Trend has opted to pit the two rivals together for some thorough testing, and it just happened to bring along a few video cameras to capture all the action.
There's nearly 19 minutes of super hot sports car action below, so scroll down and enjoy.
