Hi, You are looking at my 1998 Jaguar XJ8 Vanden Plas designer series sedan with a PERFECT CARFAX. For years I have wanted a rust/rot free Jag V/8 and have found myself with too many cars and am going to sell the car. The car lived it's life between Texas and Louisiana. The former owner in Louisiana purchased it after KATRINA and migrated to Massachusetts and sold the car to my friend the Jaguar mechanic. This car is not a Katrina car. The car has a signed Louisiana title and was never registered in Massachusetts. It still has a Louisiana inspection sticker on the window good until the end of 2012. This car is rust free and rot free. I got to meet with the prior owner and he informed be the engine was replaced by Jaguar as mentioned below and he had the transmission done while at Jaguar. Anyone with a hook in Jaguar can verify that work. The prior owner also told me when he purchased the car, the paint was faded a bit from the southern sun and he had the car repainted. The paint job and body are beautiful. It is finished in British racing Green on a perfect rust free Southern body. It has a custom VP designer leather interior, With wooden accents and rear tea&crumpet tables. The drivers seat shows little wear. This vehicle was serviced and garaged when not used. My Friend is a Jaguar mechanic and gave me a huge thumbs up to buy the car! All related issues with the XJ have been corrected. It has a replacement 80k engine with no timing chain problems. It has a updated aluminum thermostat housing with all rubbers. It has 4 new struts, brake service, cold AC. Transmission serviced. There are 4 new tires on factory Crown style alloys. The list goes on. It is a great highway cruiser getting very good mileage. The car looks like new and drives wonderfully! The headliner inside is sagging a bit in the rear but is intact and not cut or rotted. I do not want to mess with it as this should be done by a pro. This car has the Jaguar alarm system and power sliding sun roof. Everything in this car works and no stories exist. Please look beyond the miles if you want a perfect rust/rot free vehicle. My name is Marty and I can answer any question you might have.

Jaguar ousts Lexus from atop J.D. Power 2013 Sales Satisfaction Index

Mon, 18 Nov 2013

Jaguar has taken the top spot among luxury brands in the 2013 Sales Satisfaction Index, an annual survey conducted by J.D. Power that measures customer satisfaction with the experience of purchasing a new vehicle. The English brand, not even among the top three luxury automakers on the list last year, vaulted ahead of Lexus, which placed third this year after leading the list in 2011 and 2012. Porsche, meanwhile, moved into second place.
The rankings are based on a point score out of 1,000, with Jaguar earning 740 points, Porsche right behind with 739 and Lexus with 737. Volvo, meanwhile, made the biggest improvement among luxury brands with a 30-point jump to 708, bring it up from 11th place to 9th this year.
J.D. Power has a separate ranking for mass-market brands, and this year Mini again tops the list with a score of 718, far outpacing second-place Buick with a score of 694 and making it the fourth time Mini has lead this list. After Buick, the next two ranked brands are both American and both from General Motors, with Chevrolet and GMC sharing third place with a score of 686.

Dick Van Dyke escapes his flaming Jaguar on the 101

Wed, 21 Aug 2013

Actor Dick Van Dyke was caught in a dangerous situation on a Los Angeles highway (who are we kidding, every situation on an LA highway is dangerous), when his Jaguar XJ spontaneously caught fire. The 87-year-old actor/comedian pulled to the side and attempted to call emergency services when another motorist pulled him from the car. There seems to be some confusion as to whether Van Dyke was passed out or merely calling emergency services.
According to the photos and video from NBC and The Today Show, the car was thoroughly cooked in the blaze and is now a total loss. After the incident, Van Dyke's wife, Arlene, posted that the actor was "fine," sharing a Vine video of the star, the car, and a few CHP troopers that were on hand. Later in the day, Van Dyke tweeted a photo of his toasted sedan, saying, "Used Jag for sale REAL CHEAP!!"
You can view the Today show segment on the incident as well as Arlene Van Dyke's Vine video, below.
