Please read entire ad, including watching videos and looking at all the pictures, before asking questions. I try to do my best to show the car exactly how it is and I posted a lot of pictures and videos and description so you can see if this is the car for you. The car is in nice shape and runs great. Check out my full description below with 100+ pics in html form and 2 videos. If you have any questions let me know.
2001 Jaguar XJ8. 50K original miles, currently 49,999 and just about to hit 50K (maybe be a few miles over 50K by the time you get it). It runs and drives great with no problems. I am selling it for my neighbor. Clean California title. Current California registration until Feb. 2015. Black paint with Tan leather interior. Paint overall is in nice condition overall. The hood is starting to fade a little, but not too bad and could be made to look better with a wax / buff / etc. I only washed it. Im sure a professional wax / buffing would make the car look even nicer than it already is. It is not bad at all and I am being more critical because it is an online auction and I want to point out everything I notice. It has 1 very small minor ding on the hood (see pic) and another very small ding on the driver side quarter. Both are very minor and not very noticeable. There are 2 very very minor chips on the paint on the hood. See pics to see how minor / very . I want to show everything about the car so you can see. I didn't see anything else around the whole car and that is really good for a black car. It is very straight. The black original paint is very shiny and reflective still. You can see this in the pics and video. It has a small rock chip in the passenger side front window (see pic). The rear bumper had a chip in the paint on the corner and had a little black paint sprayed over it (see pic). It has a small scratch in the middle of the rear bumper (see pic). The car has a couple of minor little scratches on the paint, a little one on the door and a little on on the trunk (see pics), will easily remove with a routine waxing or buffing. Other than these little minor cosmetics, the car looks great. Check out the video and pictures to see it. The Chrome, Windows, Body, lights and everything is in nice shape. In the video I said that one of the tires had some cracks on the side wall needs to be replaced, that is now the spare tire and the car has a new tire on it. The tires are in good condition and have good tread. The 2 back ones are pretty new. The rims are in good condition with no rash (car is usually parked in driveway/ was garaged until 2008 / had car cover most of the time until last year). In the video I said my neighbor was the original owner, but he is actually the 2nd owner. The interior is tan and in nice condition. The leather on the drivers seat shows a little wear but not much and is in nice condition. The interior is very nice condition overall. There is a small rip on the center console top (see pic). There is a little spot on the back seat and a little scratch / very minor (see pic). There are a couple cracks in the wood grain, one on the dash near the left button, a couple small ones on the driver side door panel insert, and one on the passenger side door panel insert (see pics). The headliner is sagging in the back and needs to be glued back up to be perfect but fine as is. It is a cheap fix. It is a common problem that happens on these cars. Everything works good. Non smoker car. Nice interior. Engine is a 4.0 and runs great. 50K original miles. Transmission shifts nice. No leaks. Car runs and drives great like a car with 50K original miles should. 2001 was a good year for Jag, as they upgraded the Aluminum Engine block, the Throttle Body and the Timing Chain to correct problems from previous years. These upgrades from the factory make a 2001 model much more desirable and reliable than a 2000 or previous years because it is so much better of a vehicle. If you are getting a Jaguar of this style you want it to be a 2001 and up for sure. It passed California smog in the last year (Oct 2013) no problem. For CA Buyers, I dont currently have it smogged because smog is only good for 90 days in CA. Since I am putting it on ebay and it might get sold another state it would be a waste of money to smog it in CA. so I am selling it as is, and will let you handle the smog if you need it. It will pass no problem in California, the most restrictive state for smog. It has passed all prior checks. You can check the history at , California Smog Check History , just type in the plate number or vin number. Overall this is a great car. It runs, drives and looks great and is in the condition you would expect a 50K mile original well kept car should be in. This is one of the lowest mile 2001 Jaguar XJ8's that has been on ebay in the past couple months. I have seen ones with more miles sell for more than the starting bid I am putting this car for sale at. I am starting it at $4000 with no reserve. The highest bidder wins it. My neighbors have too many cars and need to make some room so here is your chance to get a great deal. If you have been looking for a low mileage Jag here it is. I have the title, keys and car here and it is ready to go. If I think of anything else I will add it to the ad. If you have any questions let me know. Check out the video and pictures to see the car for yourself. You can make the videos bigger by clicking on the title and watching it on my YT channel. I have put a lot of pictures in html form, so if you are looking from a phone you might need to look from a computer to see all of them. Non refundable deposit of $200 due through Paypal within 24 hours of auctions end. Car should be paid for within 10 days of auction end. Car needs to be picked up within 3 weeks of auctions end. If any of these are a problem for you and you are serious about bidding / buying please contact me. If you are going to have the car shipped I can assist in meeting the shipper / truck when they get close to my house. I have sold cars on ebay before and everything has always gone smooth. Check my feedback. If you have any questions let me know. Serious only please :) Thanks and good luck. |

BMW and Jaguar Land Rover to jointly develop electric car tech
Wed, Jun 5 2019FRANKFURT – BMW and Jaguar Land Rover on Wednesday said they will jointly develop electric motors, transmissions and power electronics, unveiling yet another industry alliance designed to lower the costs of developing electric cars. Both carmakers are under pressure to roll out zero-emission vehicles to meet stringent anti-pollution rules, but have struggled to maintain profit margins faced with the rising costs of making electric, connected and autonomous cars. "Together, we have the opportunity to cater more effectively for customer needs by shortening development time and bringing vehicles and state-of-the-art technologies more rapidly to market," said BMW board member Klaus Froehlich. BMW and Jaguar Land Rover said they will save costs through shared development, production planning and joint purchasing of electric car components. Both companies will produce electric drivetrains in their own manufacturing facilities, BMW said. The BMW Jaguar Land Rover pact comes as rivals FiatChrysler and Renault explore a $35 billion tie-up of the Italian-American and French carmaking groups. Nick Rogers, Jaguar Land Rover's engineering director said, "We've proven we can build world beating electric cars but now we need to scale the technology to support the next generation of Jaguar and Land Rover products." BMW was in talks with rival Daimler about developing electric car components but was also in discussions with Jaguar Land Rover, a company it once owned, to explore an alliance on engines. BMW already has a deal to supply an 8 cylinder engine to Jaguar Land Rover. Carmakers are increasingly open to sharing electric car parts because the technology is expensive and because customers no longer buy a car based on what engine a vehicle has. "Carmakers are much less precious about sharing electric car technology because it is much harder to create product differentiation with electric car tech. They all accelerate fast, and everybody can do quality and ride and handling," according to Carl-Peter Forster a former chief executive of Tata Motors and a former BMW executive. Jaguar Land Rover is still run by former BMW managers, including Ralf Speth the company's chief executive who spent 20 years at BMW prior to joining JLR, and Wolfgang Ziebart, the engineer who oversaw Jaguar's I-Pace electric car program, who is a former head of research and development at BMW.
Jaguar sends off the F-Type with commemorative 75 model
Tue, Oct 11 2022Jaguar is preparing to send the F-Type to the pantheon of automotive history. It unveiled a commemorative model named F-Type 75 that announces the end of a roughly decade-long production run with a small handful of specific design accents inside and out. Offered as a coupe and as a convertible, the 75 stands out from other members of the range with subtle emblems depicting the F-Type's silhouette positioned behind the front wheel arches. The F-Type 75 ships with 20-inch five-spoke wheels finished in gloss black, while the more powerful F-Type R 75 wears 20-inch, 10-spoke wheels with a gloss black and diamond-turned finish. Inside, the F-Type's silhouette appears on the piece of trim positioned above the infotainment system's display and on the door sills. Every 75 regardless of body style or output comes with the Interior Black Pack and what Jaguar calls "Performance-design" front seats. While a 75-horsepower bump would have been fitting, Jaguar made no mention of mechanical changes. The four- and six-cylinder engines were dropped for the 2022 model year, so the F-Type will end its career with a V8-only range. Power for the base model comes from a 5.0-liter V8 that's supercharged to 444 horsepower and 429 pound-feet of torque, while the R benefits from an evolution of this engine rated at 575 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque. The base F-Type is rear- or all-wheel-drive, while the R is rear-wheel-drive-only. Jaguar will begin delivering the F-Type 75 to customers in England in early 2023 — about 75 years after the XK120 made its debut, hence the name. Pricing and availability haven't been announced yet, and Jaguar confirmed to Autoblog that details about the F-Type 75 that will be sold in the United States will be published in December 2022. The company added that 2024 will be the F-Type's last model year. As for what's next, your guess is as good as ours, but it doesn't sound like a direct successor to the F-Type is around the corner.

Watches and whisky: two more ways to celebrate the Jaguar E-type's 60th birthday
Sun, Mar 14 2021It was 60th years ago on March 15 that Jaguar famously unveiled its E-type sports car at the Geneva auto show, after having driven a coupe and a convertible down from England overnight. And while the British automaker is commemorating the milestone with six specially restored vintage E-type coupe-and-convertible pairs, that leaves many fans shut out. For those seeking a less-spendy way to honor the occasion, there are two new options: a commemorative watch and rally timer boxed set, and a special whisky. British watchmaker Bremont has created a special watch to mark the occasion. The automatic chronograph features a black face with either a green or a gray bi-directional rotating bezel and matching leather strap. The colors reference the green roadster and gray coupe that debuted at the show. On the back, the movement is visible through a sapphire glass window, there's a rendition of the E-type's three-spoke steering wheel, and each watch is numbered. The textured crown features the tread pattern of the E-type's Dunlop racing tires. Each watch comes as a boxed set with a two-instrument rally timer with a stopwatch and a clock. The instruments are mounted on an engine-turned metal plate and can be displayed in a wood case or fitted into a vehicle. The price for the watch-and-rally-timer duo is $16,495, and 60 in each watch color will be made. As an added enticement, buyers can attend a Jaguar Classic experience in the U.K. wherein they get a chance to drive three vintage Jaguars. If 16 large is still a little rich for your budget, Bremont makes several other Jaguar-inspired timepieces: the $4,895 MkIII, the $6,695 MkII, the $6,895 D-type, and the $8,995 MkI. Or maybe you'd prefer to toast the E-type's birthday with some brown liquor. Might we suggest the Glenturret E-type 60th Anniversary Single Malt Whisky? It hails from Scotland's oldest distillery and comes with a presentation box and a key ring. No driving experience, alas. The whiskey is limited to 265 bottles, the number corresponding to the 265 horsepower in the original E-type. The whiskey is available direct from Glenturret at 1,500 GBP (about $2,100) plus shipping. Auto News Jaguar
