Rare Combo Major Service 4/14 Free Shipping W/ Buy It Now Factory Chrome Rims on 2040-cars
Staten Island, New York, United States
Hi and WELCOME to my auction.
SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY, PLEASE. FREE SHIPPING** OPTION: If the car is sold at the FULL BUY IT NOW price, I will pay to ship the car anywhere in the continental US (up to $1,000). **Sorry, but this only applies to the full asking price of $8,995. (Note: If you prefer to pay for the car through Paypal, I will glady accept it (provided you also pay the Paypal fees). Basically, you could buy this car with your Credit card.) DESCRIPTION: Due to unforeseen financial obligations, I'm regretfully selling my personally owned 1998 Jaguar XK8 convertible. The car runs, shifts and drives as NEW, looks beautiful and costs only $110/year to insure (Classic insurance). I just had the MAJOR guides/tensioner/belt service done (on April 4, 2014) and had it professionally detailed this week. The AC is COLD and the power top works flawlessly. The leather interior is in excellent condition, the OEM factory chrome rims are beautiful and the tires have plenty of thread remaining. The car comes complete with the convertible top boot, factory security system, owner's manual, and a full sized spare tire mounted on a factory CHROME rim. Shortcomings are few, and as follows: Only 1 check engine light is on (The mechanic says its a "VVT" sensor, but it doesn't affect how the car runs), the rear view mirror glass is a little faded and the passenger side view mirror has a hairline crack. Though the CD player works perfectly, the front speaker is a little weak. There are a few very minor scratches/scuffs but the paint shines beautifully. The car originally cost $73,000 and it has only 108K original miles The title is CLEAN and in my name. TERMS: A $250 non-refundable deposit is due within 48 hours of auction close. Paypal is accepted for deposit only, (unless the buyer adds the 3% Paypal fee.) Full payment is required within 7 days of auction completion. The car is sold AS-IS, with no warranties expressed or implied. Test drives/mechanical inspections are welcome. If these terms are not met, Ebay will be informed and the car will be made available to other buyers. If the car is paid in full, i will hold it for up to 30 days at no cost. Please email for more info. Thanks for looking and God Bless.

Jaguar XE to be built in China
Mon, Dec 29 2014After a six-year absence, the Jaguar XE will return that most English of automotive companies to the compact premium segment, the brand's first whole-hearted launch into that market. For certain Western markets it begins production at the Land Rover plant in Solihull early next year, but it will also continue the brand's venture in to China having been chosen as the first Jaguar to be built there, according to a report in Automotive News. Jaguar-Land Rover owns a plant in Changshu, a joint venture with Chery Automobile, that started building the Range Rover Evoque this year and will add the Land Rover Discovery Sport. Previously, The Leaping Cat was selling cars built from kits at its factory in Pune, India. The brand figures to sell 20,000 cars in China next year, which would be less than a fifth of in-country sales for the JLR group, but the XE is the "spearhead vehicle" that "could make significant inroads" there, according to Jaguar. For comparison, Audi moved 120,450 A4s alone and BMW sold more than 100,000 3 Series models in China in 2013. Globally, Jaguar is predicted to sell 80,000 units this year. By 2017, after the release of the XE, new XF and coming crossover, plus factory expansions in China, Brazil and Saudi Arabia, it hopes to get that number up to 200,000 units; Forbes has a piece detailing why they think it's possible. The JLR group is shooting for a target of 850,000 units worldwide by 2020.

Stolen Jaguar E-Type reunited with owner after 46 years
Mon, 22 Sep 2014Barely six months into owning it, Ivan Schneider had his Jaguar E-Type stolen from outside of his Manhattan apartment in 1968. Now, 46 years later, the somewhat beat-up convertible has been recovered just before it was about to be shipped to a new owner in The Netherlands.
US Customs agents at the Port of Los Angeles found the car during a routine check, and they contacted Schneider to arrange returning it to him. When the feds found it, the E-Type was already in a shipping container ready to go to its new owner. The condition is hardly perfect today, including rough paint and a replacement door, but Schneider is ecstatic to get his classic back.
Understandably, the now 82-year-old never thought he would see his droptop Jaguar again. Schneider told the LA Times that he bought the E-Type for $5,000 after winning a case as a lawyer, and it was originally painted gray. Now, he plans to have to have the vintage convertible restored to its former glory in New York.
Environmental group accuses BMW, JLR of link to deforestation in Paraguay
Wed, Sep 30 2020ASUNCION, Paraguay — Environmental group Earthsight said on Wednesday it has linked some of Europe's largest carmakers to the deforestation of the Chaco, a dry forest region of Paraguay home to jaguars and one of the last uncontacted indigenous groups in the world. The group said in a report that livestock companies have illegally logged lands of the Ayoreo Totobiegosode indigenous ethnic group, some of whose members live in voluntary isolation. The livestock skin is used in leather upholstery of luxury vehicles sold by high-end European auto brands including BMW, Jaguar and Land Rover, the group said. UK-based Earthsight said it had made covert visits to tanneries that bragged about supplying the raw material to the luxury car brands. "BMW is using hides sourced from two slaughterhouses processing cows from ranches responsible for illegal [logging] in the Ayoreo Totobiegosode's forests. Jaguar Land Rover didn't dispute sourcing from a Paraguayan tannery that processes hides from another slaughterhouse doing the same," the report said. Jaguar Land Rover said in a statement to Reuters it had found no evidence to verify Earthsight's claims. It said its European suppliers assured sustainability. "We continue our drive for further transparency and, in this case, the leather supplier in Europe verifies with each raw material supplier that no rural property that directly supplies it is involved in illegal deforestation," the automaker said. BMW did not respond to a request for comment on the Earthsight investigation. Paraguay exports about 50,000 tons of wet-blue leather (tanned, but not dried, dyed or finished) a year, and almost two-thirds of those shipments are bound for Europe, according to the report. Automakers say that leather is a byproduct of the far larger meat industry and high-end cars constitute a comparatively small market niche. But indigenous leaders say deforestation driven by growth in beef and leather exports is encroaching on their territory and destroying their way of life. "As deforestation advances with extensive cattle ranching, they are being imprisoned, they are disappearing," Taguide Picanerai, a spokesman for the Ayoreo community in the Alto Paraguay department, northwest of Asuncion, told Reuters. The region is home to some of the world's highest rates of deforestation, Earthsight said.  Green BMW Jaguar Land Rover
