Eugene, Oregon, United States
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. ALL FEATURES FUNCTION WELL, COLD AC, RESPONSIVE NEWER BRAKES, LOUD ALARM SYSTEM, EXCEPTIONAL STEREO, POWER EVERYTHING, IT ALL WORKS AS IT SHOULD AND IS IN GREAT CONDITION.

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.

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.________________________________________________________________________________ #3) XJR Luxury rocketby klet on Dec 15, 2012 Vehicle: 1997 Jaguar XJRthis car not only turns heads,but leaves the the competition behind. very very very fast!!! i am always with smile on my face when i drive this car, it is the best kept secret around!!! _______________________________________________________________________________ #4) How come know one talksby HateGermanBrakes on Sep 16, 2002 Vehicle: 1997 Jaguar XJRIt'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!

Jay Leno's Garage features funnyman's 1963 Jaguar E-Type
Thu, 25 Apr 2013Jay Leno looks inward on this episode of his eponymous garage, checking out a 1963 Jaguar XKE that he bought earlier this year. It is an example of his favorite kind of car, that being original and unrestored. He bought the E-Type from its first owner, a woman who purchased it new, held on to it for 50 years and took excellent care of it. Having never been in an accident, Leno says even the paint is 85- to 90-percent original.
In the video, the XKE sits in front of two heavily modded XK120s and another '63 XKE, but Leno said all he's done - and all he plans to do - is clean it up and put on a modern set of wire wheels for safety.
He's not on any junket and there are no guests, it's just a guy talking about an object dear to his heart. If you need a refresher on the excellent genes of the new F-Type, check out the video below.
Jaguar envisions future without V8 engines
Wed, 21 Aug 2013With tighter emissions and fuel economy regulations looming, Jaguar may have to do more than make a small, fuel-efficient hatchback to lower its model range's consumption figures - it also might give up its venerable V8 power, Drive reports. But not anytime soon, says Steven de Ploey, Jaguar's product and marketing director, who recognizes that the V8 can be replaced only by something that offers the same, or better, performance. But he has a word of caution: "We are not wedded to V8s."
In the meantime, de Ploey says there are other ways to reduce emissions. One of the first steps Jaguar could take is to shift away from the use of superchargers, which aren't as good as turbochargers at maintaining efficiency and making power. But he adds that supercharging still is "at the heart of Jaguar's performance proposition," and that the company has addressed the current downsizing trend by "replacing our naturally aspirated V8 with a 3.0-liter supercharged V6."
Consider one of de Ploey's comments on the cancelled C-X75 supercar (pictured) for some clue about Jaguar's future: "Some of the stuff we have already exploited to the extreme in the C-X75 is the kind of thinking for us and is an essential test bed to see how we could evolve from today to something that is sustainable in the future."
Jaguar teases E-Pace crossover details - and price under $40K
Wed, Jun 21 2017So it turns out we'll be seeing the fully revealed Jaguar E-Pace much sooner than we expected. Jaguar announced the debut will occur on July 13, so we're less than a month away. The company also provided a teaser of the E-Pace's tail. It shows a fat rear fender and Jaguar's trademark taillight design. While many other companies would be content to release a teaser and nothing else, Jaguar actually provided a number of other interesting details. Among them is the powertrain. It will only be available with gasoline-powered engines and all-wheel drive. We're expecting it to use roughly the same powertrain combinations as the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque. The other big details are pricing and availability. The baby Jaguar SUV starts at $39,595, which is over $3,000 less than the entry-level F-Pace and the Range Rover Evoque. You'll also be able to bring one home from the dealer next year. Related Video: Image Credit: Jaguar Jaguar Crossover SUV Luxury jaguar e-pace
