The Amazing Jaguar XJR, 1997 Sedan.
VEHICLE CONDITION:
THIS CAR IS NEARLY PERFECT CONDITION.  The exterior, I have to say, is practically flawless.
The paint job is EXCEPTIONALLY MINT. Only the tiniest scuff can be seen on the front bumper, the rest of the finish is superb and practically glows with a fine  midnight blue-black shine. I love hand washing it and it has definitely been well taken care of! Pride of ownership throughout. 
The interior, although it is less than mint condition, it is still totally clean, well taken care of and fully functioning.  It has some slight signs of wear on the seats (minimal) and part of the headliner is bowed,  but the rest of the interior is still in perfect, nice working condition and it looks absolutely great. 
Tires have 75% tread still left on them and the rims are in excellent condition.

  • OVERVIEW:
  • This 1997 Jaguar XJR is a finely tuned, exceptionally powerful, near mint condition vehicle that absolutely will turn heads wherever you go.  So, if you are the shy, reserved type this car probably wont do since there is not a day that goes by when I drive this car that people don't stop to comment on how beautiful she is!  I've met dozens of new people just by parking at the grocery stores and having folks stop me to comment on this car, saying things like "What a beautiful car!" and " I've got one of these beauties at home myself" and "Wow! Is that a Rolls Royce?!" (lol) and my favorite from a little boy, "I love your car, will you marry me?"  It is definitely a social "ice breaker" whether you like that perk or not, : )
    This car is so much fun to drive too, a real pleasure, smooth, like it is gliding over the pavement, responsive, quick acceleration, really powerful get up and go for sure! You can beat any hot rod out the gate with this performance driven ride! I enjoy my everyday errands ten times more when I get to drive the Jag.

    Review
    Being in the auto industry for over 25 years I did my research on this purchase, searched for 2 years for this beauty. You cannot find a better combination of style, class and performance out there for the buck. Replaced exhaust system with a stainless steel one i.e. mina, borla. Yoko's are the best tire. Get a radar detector!

    Favorite Features
    The stock HK stereo is out of this world.

    #2) Great Car
    By EricXJR37 on 1997 Jaguar XJR 4dr Sedan
    Review
    It's a beautiful car no doubt, it drives like a dream, for the 4.0L supercharged motor it's not really hard on gas I'd say I get 25 mpg . It's a real head turner, the 17 inch rims are nice for and stock rim from the dealer, I like the CD changer since it is easy to put 6 of my favorite cd's into the disc changer and listen to a variety of my favorite music all at the touch of a button.
    Favorite Features
    Performance , Luxury comfort, LOOKS are incredible, Supercharged in-line 6 way better on gas than a v12.

    #4) How come know one talks

          by  on   Vehicle: 1997 Jaguar XJR

    It'a rocket in hiding. If a BMW 540 owner ever had this car, he would be bragging about his V-8. Power is amazing at 322 HP. New Mods (V8's) have higher HP 370 but about the same same torque. Had many other HP luxury cars. This one has power is better than BMW's 540, or Mercedes 430 or Lexus 400 series. Reliability has been better than average for me. Brakes are way better than any any german car. I have 57K on original brakes and they still look good for another 20K. Both my BMW's and Mercedes ate brakes about ever 20-25K. Can't believe it took me this long to buy a Jaguar, I'm never going back to anything else!

    _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    Well, you've heard it straight from the "horse's mouth" with those reviews and WOW, what a car! Bells and whistles galore! Everything works just exactly as it should too, so be excited, you are getting a great vehicle. 

    Now, as an independent Jaguar XJR owner myself, I am here to tell you that this is by far MY FAVORITE CAR I HAVE EVER OWNED. 

    Offered today for sale to the highest bidder in a 7 day auction that ends NEXT SATURDAY, July 19, 2014 at 1pm with ABSOLUTELY NO RESERVE!!!

    TO THE LUCKY WINNER AND NEXT OWNER OF THIS XJR: "I purchased this car directly from an expert certified Jaguar mechanic who took excellent care of her and replaced the motor with an all OEM new v-6 supercharger as well as all new associated fuel injection system parts for a superior drive PLUS ADDITIONAL GAS MILEAGE PERKS.  Mileage on the motor is only 55,000 miles, actual car stated miles on the frame is still at a low 110,552 miles." 

    He said to me when I bought this Jaguar: "Please, TAKE GOOD CARE OF HER! She will be sorely missed!"  So, I ask you to do the same and I know you will!

    Weekly Recap: Hyundai scores NFL sponsorship after GM exits

    Sat, Jul 4 2015

    Hyundai replaced General Motors as the official automotive sponsor of the NFL with a four-season deal that was announced this week. Hyundai gets exclusive sponsorship rights for mainstream and luxury cars, though not for pickups – as it doesn't have one in its current portfolio. "There may be another automotive truck sponsor, but not one that competes with our vehicle lineup," a Hyundai spokesman said in an email. That leaves the door open for another truckmaker to enter the fray. GM used the NFL to promote its GMC division, which makes pickups and sport-utility vehicles. The Detroit automaker decided to quit the sponsorship, which it had held since 2001, a GM spokesman said. Financials were not released, but ESPN said the sponsorship will cost Hyundai $50 million a year, double what GM paid. It gives Hyundai access to NFL trademarks for use in its marketing and advertising, and Hyundai will provide promotional vehicles to the league for the Super Bowl and other events. Hyundai celebrated the agreement by lighting up its Fountain Valley, CA, headquarters this week with a football field and the NFL logo. Hyundai's sister company, Kia, is the official automotive sponsor of the NBA. "We are huge football fans at Hyundai and feel there is no better venue to reach consumers, increase consideration, and tell the Hyundai brand story," Hyundai Motor America CEO Dave Zuchowski said in a statement. Hyundai will officially kick off its sponsorship when the NFL season begins on Sept. 10 with a primetime game featuring the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Super Bowl champion New England Patriots. OTHER NEWS & NOTES Toyota Mirai rated at 67 mpge, 312-mile range The Environmental Protection Agency gave the Toyota Mirai hydrogen fuel cell electric car a 67-miles-per-gallon-equivalent rating. The figure is for city, highway, and combined driving. The EPA also said the Mirai will have a 312-mile range. The sedan will arrive in dealerships in California this fall and will cost $57,500, though incentives can drop the price significantly. The Mirai will also be offered as a $499-per-month lease. Both come with three years or $15,000 worth of free fuel. Toyota plans to expand sales to the Northeast United States later. Toyota's top female exec resigns in wake of arrest Meanwhile, in other Toyota news, the automaker's communications chief and top female executive, Julie Hamp, resigned.

    Jaguar F-Pace, XE getting SVR treatment with supercharged V8

    Tue, Apr 19 2016

    The folks at Jaguar Land Rover's new Special Vehicle Operations division have been fast at work creating new SVR performance models. And they're not about to stop now. Two new Jaguar models are currently in the works, according to Car and Driver, both packing the company's long-serving and celebrated supercharged V8. First up is the F-Pace crossover, which currently tops out with a 380-horsepower supercharged V6. Slotting the bigger engine in under the hood with more than 500 horsepower on tap would go a long way toward living up to the name that suggests both speed and a correlation to the F-Type sportscar. But that's not all JLR's new skunkworks department has in store. Car and Driver reports work is also under way on a more powerful XE to take on the likes of the BMW M3 and Mercedes-Benz AMG C63. The automaker is reportedly yet to give it the green light, hemming and hawing over its environmental image, but we hope hotter heads, in this case, prevail. Jaguar's V8 engine is one of its most enduring powertrains and is approaching double the output it originally offered. The 4.0 introduced in 1997 packed 375 horsepower. The latest version in the F-Type SVR (and expected soon to slot into the Range Rover Sport SVR) displaces 5.0 liters and produces 575 supercharged horsepower. With that much muscle, the F-Pace SVR would overpower the Porsche Cayenne Turbo S, BMW X5 M, and Mercedes-AMG GLE63, while the XE SVR would outgun the M3, Cadillac ATS-V, Alfa Romeo Giulia QV, and just about anything else in its class.

    Jaguar to reveal small sedan at Paris show

    Wed, 11 Dec 2013

    Small sedans are big business for luxury automakers. The C-Class is the top seller for Mercedes-Benz, much as the 3 Series is for BMW, but Jaguar has historically missed out on that market. Its last attempt, the X-Type, proved woefully inadequate, and Jaguar hasn't attempted to take on that market again since. But that's all about to change.
    Coventry has been working on a new small Jaguar for some time now (using test mules like the one above wearing modified XF body panels), and according to the latest reports coming in from the UK, it will showcase the result of those efforts at the Paris Motor Show next October. The show car will take the form of a pre-production concept that is expected to preview the production version very closely before the final item is unveiled at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show.
    Tipped to be called XS (somewhat appropriately for the brand's smallest model), the new sedan is expected to be the first to use the company's new aluminum platform previewed by the C-X17. Expect styling to follow along similar lines to said crossover concept and the F-Type sportscar, with eventual sedan, wagon and coupe versions to round out the family.
