Check out the cheapest 4.2L XKR Convertible on the internet period! I am helping my friend sell his car as he is moving back to New York and will have no need for a vehicle especially a convertible with winter coming! I have had a chance to have the car in my possession for a couple of weeks now and have gone through it and this is a VERY solid car.
My friend Bought the car in March of this year from the original owner in Alpharetta Georgia. The car was purchased with 146,000 miles on it and was serviced for its ENTIRE life at Nalley Automotive - Jaguar. I have over $13,000 worth of receipts dating back from when the car had 29k miles on it till when the car was purchased in march where it had another $700 dollar service done before it was sold. The previous owner used the car almost exclusively for highway driving as he commuted a long distance to and from work every day. Do not let the miles scare you the maintenance records alone show the care and money put into the long term maintenance of this car.
Body
The body is almost flawless which completely amazed me. I could not find a single ding on the entire car and the back bumper (thanks parking sensors!) looks brand new!
The front bumper because of the highway driving does have rock chips on it as well as one small crack that looks to be easily repaired from behind. If someone painted the current bumper or put a new front bumper on it the exterior of the car would really be almost perfect!
Interior
The interior is black leather with wood gran trim surrounding the dash. It has the Alpine sound system with CD changer in the trunk. From what I can tell everything works on the inside including the power retractable top. It has the black leather Recaro seats in it. They have no tears or rips in them and besides being a big dry are in good shape. The back seats are in excellent condition. It does have the factory navigation. When it is turned on it says something a bout the navigation CD. I did not try and look into this but my friend said that when he did use the factory navigation it worked fine.
Drive train
After driving it the transmission seems perfect. No slipping or issues that I am aware of. I have not driven an XKR before this so I am not sure how they are supposed to feel but the transmission seems to shift fine.
I made sure to NOT clean the engine bay for the new owner. This is exactly how the motor was given to me and I feel this is important to show how it is rather then trying to dress it up. All fluids look clean and filled. I recently checked all intake plumbing and vacuum hoses for leaks and besides tightening a few clamps found no issues as well. I also hooked up my OBD 2 scanner to the car to check for engine codes (engine light was off) and there were no stored codes either.
Brakes and tires
The tires are the original equipment Pirelli PZERO tires. Two of them were replaced in March and the other two were in excellent condition. these are very expensive tires and they look to be almost new!
The brakes come with the large red calipers and slotted rotors. I know the owner let me know the brake rotors need to be cleaned often to make sure they stopped properly. The pads and fluid looks good but the brakes seem to not stop as fast as I thought they might. This could be perfectly normal as I am not used to driving a very fast heavy touring car. There is no noise from the brakes and seem to be in good condition.
Only known Issues I have found
The Airbag light is on on the vehicle. It blinks two times when the car is turned on and after some research it seems this is an indication of a one of the airbag sensors either on the back of the seat or the bottom of it. The HAL sensor is known to go bad and this seems to be the issue. I had the capacity to reset the code but I decided against this so the new owner knows of this small issue. Because of the mechanic checking this out the back of the leather seats were un clipped to have access to this. New clips are needed to put the small trim sides back on but since these will probably be taken off again to fix the issue I decided to leave it as is. Besides this issue There are NO other lights on the dash, warning lights or any other issues that I can find. This well maintained car looks to be in very solid condition and you can get a 90k dollar super car for a fraction of the cost!
Terms and Shipping.
I have no problem shipping the car anywhere in the continental USA for the new owner. The new owner will pay for all shipping cost but I am familiar with doing this and will assist where I can. A $500.00 deposit is due within 48 hours of the close of auction. The remaining payment will need to be sent to me either through bank transfer or overnight cashier check. The title will then be mailed with a copy of the owners front an back of his driver license. I have 100% Ebay feedback and will make sure this transaction is VERY easy and quick to ensure everyone is happy! If you are local and want to check the car out please message me to set up an appointment I have no problem showing the vehicle!

Jaguar sends off XK with limited-run Final 50 edition
Fri, 18 Apr 2014The Jaguar XK coupe and convertible are pointed at the production sunset, and the cars that will end their retail lives in the US will be the dubbed the XK Final Fifty Limited Edition. As the name implies there will be fifty of them made, 25 of the fixed-roof variety, 25 of the droptop.
As the name doesn't imply, however, they'll be based on the XKR and be injected with liberal doses of XKR-S and XKR-S GT: the 510-horsepower V8 from the XKR will be mated to normally optional items like the Dynamic and Performance Packs, machined front suspension components from the XKR-S and a 10-millimeter lower ride height, the louvered hood from the XKR-S GT and Vortex 20-inch forged wheels. The sheetmetal gets a bath in Ultimate Black paint "with special trim" and badged door sill plates. Convertibles will come black roofs, but the Performance Active Exhaust will keep you apprised of the 5.0-liter V8 bellows no matter which car you choose.
They'll go into production this summer and hit dealerships in the fall. There's a lengthy press release below with more info on how this cat will sing its swan song.
Jaguar-Land Rover builds millionth vehicle at Halewood
Fri, 29 Nov 2013Jaguar-Land Rover is not what you'd call a volume automaker by any stretch of the imagination. But in the dozen years since it started manufacturing at its Halewood plant near Liverpool, England, the automaker has already built its millionth vehicle.
The landmark vehicle is a Range Rover Evoque, done up in white with red roof and mirrors, black wheels and a red and black interior. The crossover is set to be donated to Cancer Research UK, which will auction it off next year to help fund its projects in the north-west of the country.
Halewood started manufacturing the Jaguar X-Type in 2001, then went on to assemble the Land Rover LR2 / Freelander 2 before taking on production of the Evoque a year and a half ago. The facility reached the 300,000-unit milestone just last year as production moved to a 24-hour cycle for the first time in either marque's history.
Are you the Jaguar F-Type Coupe R-S?
Fri, 23 Aug 2013It's no secret that Jaguar is working on a fixed-roof version of the F-Type roadster, but now it looks like it's also developing a high-performance model for said coupe. Captured sharpening its claws at the Nürburgring, this F-Type Coupe prototype could very well be an R-S or even a more track-ready R-S GT variant.
Our biggest clue suggesting the latter are its massive brake rotors with bright-yellow calipers - similar pieces are also found on the recently introduced XKR-S GT. This would make sense, since a report in May said that Jaguar is looking to create a full line of R-S GT models in a similar fashion as the Mercedes-Benz AMG Black Series. Missing from this prototype, though, are the telltale aero add-ons we seen on the XKR-S GT - go-faster bits like the latter's front fascia winglets and rear wing, though this model is obviously still being developed. Regardless of what this new grippier, quicker kitty is called, we say "Yes, please."
