1986 Jaguar Xjs 2-door Coupe No Reserve! 5.3l V12 For Restoration Or Parts on 2040-cars
Southington, Connecticut, United States
|
Up for auction is a 1986 Jaguar XJS 2-door coupe, It has the 5.3L V-12 HE engine and GM 400 automatic transmission. I bought the car to fix-up a few years ago but didn't have the time to get involved in it. The interior is blue with a power moon roof. Front seats are worn in the typical places. The laquer on the wood trim is cracked and/or peeling in multiple places but the underlying wood appears good. There is rust along the bottom of the door edges, in the trunk under the battery tray area and on the fenders. There are also some dents from a tree limb. (Please see the pictures). The car drove, handled and shifted well the last time it was driven. It hasn't been started in a few years so at this point it's good to still fix up or be used as a parts car. It's being offered with NO RESERVE. At the time the engine ran rough and the ignition amplifier or a bad injector was suspected, but it was never fully diagnosed. I haven't inspected it, but expect the typical conditions from a sitting car in the brakes and fuel system as well. I've tried accurately represent the body and interior condition in the included pictures. This vehicle is being auctioned AS IS with no guarantees expressed or implied. If you have any additional questions or would like additional pictures or to arrange a viewing please contact me and I'll do my best to accommodate you. PLEASE BID ONLY IF YOU INTEND TO PURCHASE AND PICK UP THE CAR WITHIN 14 DAYS. $499.00 deposit is required via Pay Pal within 24 hours of the end of the auction. I'll also accept cash or a bank certified check from the U.S. Please make your financial arrangements ahead of time. Please note, I need the space freed in my driveway to work on other projects that are being held up. Arrangement and cost of transporting the vehicle is the buyer's responsibility. Please contact me at the auction close to arrange a time. The winning bidder must arrange to have the vehicle picked-up at their expense within 14 DAYS OF THE AUCTION CLOSE or forfeit the deposit. If there's an extreme condition preventing it contact me and I'll do my best to work with you.

Jaguar could yet offer more hardcore F-Type R-S
Mon, 25 Nov 2013Jaguar pulled a fast one on us all when it unexpectedly shoehorned all 550 horsepower of the 5.0-liter supercharged V8 from the XKR-S into the new F-Type Coupe to supersede the existing V8 S model with the F-Type R. But that's just the beginning, according to the latest intel coming from the UK.
According to Autocar, in speaking to Jaguar design director Ian Callum during the coupe's unveiling at the LA Auto Show, the British automaker could yet offer R-S and R-S GT versions of the F-Type. Just what mechanical changes those would bring when the F-Type R already packs the company's top engine remains to be seen, but given that the same engine also powers the flagship XJR performance saloon, we could envision Jaguar developing an even more powerful version for R-S versions of the little coupe and big sedan.
The GT version, meanwhile, would likely offer more extreme aero and a lighter form for the truly performance-obsessed. Considering that the new top-of-the-line F-Type is already pushing the hundred-grand mark, you can bet any R-S and R-S GT version would approach double the base F-Type's $65k sticker price.
Jaguar to expand Jaguar XKR-S GT production run?
Wed, 10 Apr 2013According to a report in Autocar, demand for the Jaguar XKR-S GT is such that the English company could nearly double production from 30 to 50 cars. Such inflation can often incense those have already put deposits down, worried that they've both been lied to about the potentially diminished values of their cars, but Jaguar has made the announcement barely a day after the XKR-S GT was revealed and 50 still isn't that many vehicles.
Nothing in the Autocar report indicates the additional examples will not come to America, making the 500-horsepower superfast coupe a treat we can still call all our own. Jaguar didn't add horsepower but instead honed other aspects of the car to produce a GT that can lap the 'Ring nearly as quickly as a Ferrari 458 Italia, and the world should be the beneficiary, the company's brand director saying, "The real beauty of this project has been that it has extended our understanding of the elements involved in making a car go so fast, and that will feed back into all our road car programs." Sounds good to us.
Jaguar design boss Callum reinterprets classic Mark 2 for himself [w/video]
Fri, 29 Aug 2014As the man behind the styling of basically every Jaguar since the mid 2000s, two things should be known about Ian Callum - he's a big fan of the brand, and he can bloody well get whatever kind of Jag he wants.
His newest car, though, is not what you might expect. Rather than an F-Type or an XJ, Callum has gone old school, and commissioned a custom, resto-modded Jaguar Mark 2.
Designed by Callum and built by Classic Motor Cars in Shropshire, England, the Mark 2 was an 18-month project between the designer and the garage. The essentially new car draws its power from a 4.3-liter engine that's been pilfered and modified from an XK. It's mated to a five-speed manual transmission.
