1992 Jaguar XJS. Excellent daily driver. 45,788+/- miles; Still driving in nice weather. Garaged since I've owned it and probably most of her 21 year old life.
I believe I am the 3rd owner. In this section only I will list known issues. The anti lock brake light is occasionally flickering. My Jag specialist made several suggestions which included replace the accumulator and drain and flush the brake system. I have not done these things as the car has excellent brakes and all disc were replaced fairly recently as all pads are full and calipers show No wear at all. Crawling underneath for the first time shocked me. Almost spotless and No rust not even surface rust.
The hood does have 2 noticeable dings. The trunk lid has a small area of peeling clear coat (Pictured). The car should have electric locks and a factory key-fob; I do not have the key-fob. I do have 2 ignition keys and 1 door-lock key. The electric antenna is not working properly but can be raised and lowered manually.
The car is an absolute dream to drive. I can assist with loading on YOUR arranged transporter OR I will gladly pick you up from the airport as I feel very confident in the car's ability to be driven Anywhere in the US. Sorry, I will not accept or help with transport overseas. Repairing, driving, enjoying, and moving on to a new and different model is my quirky hobby. Having said that I sincerely believe that I will own another XJS and hopefully soon. Just a very enjoyable purist driving experience. Having driven many BMW and Mercedes Benz cars of various types in the last 20 years sort of pushed me "frightened" into this Jaguar experience and now I'm hooked. Luxury Convertible like NO other can even come close to for such small $$$. I check my email daily and if you're Serious and want this car...send me a message and I'll make myself available over the phone. Also, I will gladly send more pictures by way of my phone if there's something you would like a better picture of. I'm looking for an offer at least Close to my asking price as far as negotiating is concerned.

2014 Jaguar XJL AWD 3.0
Wed, 25 Jun 2014A bit of British nobility floods the senses when piloting the 2014 Jaguar XJ. It's an emotional rush, a perception based on physical surroundings that influence the mind in much the same manner that a stein of pilsner tastes best when consumed in a German beer garden and no sand is softer than that found on a warm Caribbean beach. Jaguar has been assembling cars for nearly 100 years, and few automakers are as equally adept at capturing aristocracy and timelessness within the rich cabins of their luxury offerings.
Jaguar would have no concern if it were the only game in town, but that's far from the truth. The premium full-size luxury segment, which includes vehicles hovering just under or at the six-figure mark, is a contentious grouping that includes the Audi A8, BMW 7 Series, Lexus LS, Mercedes-Benz S-Class and Porsche Panamera. Each of those brings its own game to the battle, and none are easy to dismiss.
To better understand the British perspective and evaluate its latest offering on a land without royalty, I recently spent a week with a long-wheelbase, all-wheel-drive Jaguar XJ in Southern California.
Jaguar teaches Mena Suvari and Sebastian Stan how to drive the F-Type
Sun, 27 Jul 2014Automakers conduct driver training programs on racing circuits around the world for a variety of participants: journalists, customers, even celebrities. And at a recent session of the Jaguar Performance Driving Academy at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas, the Leaping Cat marque had a couple of the Hollywood types in the paddock.
In addition to the various (evidently well-heeled) members of the public, learning how to pilot the new F-Type Coupe R on the track this time around were actors Sebastian Stan and Mena Suvari. You might recognize Stan from his roll as Bucky Barnes in the Captain America movies and Suvari from such red, white and blue favorites as American Beauty and the American Pie franchise, but both got a first-hand taste of one of Britain's finest courtesy of Jaguar.
So how did it go? Well, as one of the less-famous participants put it, it was #awesomesauce." We couldn't possibly reproduce in words her enthusiasm in person and on camera, so you'll just have to watch the video below to see for yourself.
Jaguar buys world's largest collection of British cars
Mon, 28 Jul 2014Whether you're looking at Bertone going bankrupt or Spyker facing (and subsequently resolving) a large tax bill, it's saddening to see an automaker having to sell off its factory collection. That's why we're glad to report that there are still some acquiring historic vehicles from their pasts. Like Jaguar, which has just bought the largest private collection of classic British cars in the world.
The collection of 543 cars was painstakingly assembled by one James Hull, a British dentist with some 50 dental clinics to his name across the UK and who was keen to find the right buyer to take possession of his life's work and preserve it for years to come.
Of those 543 cars, the majority are of British origin, including over 130 Jaguars. The collection includes seven XK120s, several C- and D-Types, a rare XKSS, eight E-Types, thirty Mark-series Jaguar sedans, nineteen XJS coupes and convertibles, some twenty XJ sedans as well as some pre-war SS models and Swallow sidecars and coachbuilt specials from the company's early days. Among the many noteworthy examples are a rare SS100, an alloy-bodied XK120 and an MK X owned by company founder Sir William Lyons himself, as well as Winston Churchill's Austin, Elton John's Bentley, and racing driver and motorcycle rider Mike Hailwood's E-Type.
