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. |

Jaguar will sell 10 fully restored Series 1 E-Types
Fri, Mar 31 2017The Jaguar Land Rover "Reborn" program is expanding its offerings yet again. The newest offering is the first from the Jaguar side of the company, and naturally the first car is a Series 1 E-Type. Jaguar Classic will restore 10 of the first-generation E-Types, and the cars will be sold directly to consumers from the company. The very first of the cars is the 1965 model you see above, which will make its public debut next week at the Techno-Classica Essen show in Germany. It's a 4.2-liter model finished in "Opalescent Gunmetal Grey." According to Jaguar, it was originally sent to California where it racked up 78,000 miles, and then was put into storage in 1983. Jaguar then acquired the car, and the Jaguar Classic department proceeded to restore it to factory specifications. Jaguar fixed and retained as many original parts as possible, and used replacement Jaguar Classic parts as needed. The car is fully numbers-matching with the original engine and transmission. If you're interested in purchasing this E-Type, or one of the other nine, you'd better have a hefty pocketbook. A standard restored car done to factory specs will start at about $355,000 at current exchange rates. If you want to spend more, Jaguar offers a few extra cost options such as an upgraded cooling system based on the one found in the Lightweight E-Type, a fully synchromesh transmission for early models without it, and upgraded front brake calipers from the later Series 2 E-Type.

Recharge Wrap-up: Jaguar's aluminum recycling, lithium demand rises
Sun, May 1 2016Jaguar Land Rover has recycled over 50 metric tons of aluminum over the past year. As Jaguar celebrates a year of sales of the XE – which makes use of recycled aluminum – its closed loop recycling program has prevented some 500,000 metric tons of CO2 emissions. The XE is the first car in Jaguar's REALCAR (short for REcycled ALuminium CAR) program, and the company says it has recycled an amount equal to almost 200,000 XE body shells. "Its success so far marks a significant step towards our goal of having up to 75 percent recycled aluminium content in our vehicle body structures by 2020," says Group Engineering Director Nick Rogers. Check out the video above, and read more from Jaguar. Electric vehicle manufacturers are putting a strain on lithium supplies. Since the metal is used in the batteries of most electric vehicles, demand is expected to grow by 8.8 percent a year through 2019. While Tesla has deals with natural resource companies Pure Energy Minerals and Bacanora Minerals, they won't be able to keep up with the automaker's goal of 500,000 EVs by 2020. Tesla, BYD, and other EV manufacturers are going to be competing for these resources, and new lithium firms will enter the market to compete for automakers' business.

Connecticut's Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP) has announced a new funding opportunity for building public EV charging infrastructure. DEEP is accepting applications from private entities for awards of up to $10,000 for installing a public dual-head charger or two single-head chargers, for up to 17 new charging stations. It prefers proposals for underserved areas with major traffic, such as downtowns. Connecticut has a goal of putting 3.3 million EVs on the road by 2025. Read more in the notice from DEEP, or visit DEEP's website. Car clubs are responsible for the removal of about 25,000 cars from London roads. According to a new survey, every club car removes 10 private cars, as club members sell their own vehicles. The survey of 4,000 Londoners also shows that carsharing members drive an average of 750 fewer miles every year after joining. London is currently home to 186,000 car club members using 2,800 cars, while the UK's 220,000 club members use over 3,800 club cars. Also, many car clubs offer access to electric vehicles, which helps to further reduce emissions.
Recharge Wrap-up: Jaguar Land Rover talks EVs, Batteries should be modular
Wed, Sep 3 2014A new study out of Germany suggests adopting a modular approach to battery offerings in plug-in hybrid and extended range electric vehicles. Automakers could offer the same car with different battery sizes (and different costs, accordingly) to drivers depending on their driving ranges. This would optimize the total cost of ownership for various drivers better than the current approach. Developing a modular battery design and offering appropriate batteries for different customers "is the key for electric powertrains to meet customer expectations and become cost competitive against conventional technologies," according to the report from the Institute of Vehicle Concepts, German Aerospace Center. Learn more at Green Car Congress. Jaguar and Land Rover are looking to offer more electric driving from their vehicles. Wolfgang Ziebart, head of product development for Jaguar Land Rover, said in an interview that its hybrid system is being tweaked for more electric power and "downsized" combustion. He also said the likely target market for EVs would be second and third vehicles, rather than primary vehicles for urban driving. Within that market, Europeans look for something smaller, while American drivers lean toward larger luxury vehicles for their second car. Ziebart uses the Tesla Model S as an example of American tastes, and compares its size to that of the Jaguar XJ. Read more at Automotive News Europe. Thailand will likely approve a Volkswagen factory as early as next week. A German newspaper suggests that Thailand's Board of Investment is set to greenlight the plant, which is planned for a site near the Port of Bangkok. Thailand is a relatively large and growing auto manufacturing country, which seeks to be a major producer of eco-friendly vehicles. The country's "Eco2" program would provide incentives to Volkswagen if it builds clean cars and meets certain production targets. Read more at Reuters. Formula E has chosen Sky Deutschland for broadcasting rights in the German market. The deal includes television rights, as well as online broadcasting. Sky Deutschland has 3.8 million subscribers in Germany and Austria. Showing the races on Germany's largest pay television provider should help generate interest for the series, particularly the Berlin ePrix - the inaugural season's penultimate race - scheduled for May 30, 2015.
