This is an awesome mostly original MATCHING NUMBERS, 1967 Jaguar XKE/E-type 2+2, 4-SPEED that is extremely desirable. These are going through the roof at auctions recently. More so that it is a great running, straight body, rust-free driver. The only thing that it needs apologies for is the leather interior and the headliner. These E-types are certainly getting rare, especially the Series I. This had been privately owned for about 23 years. Comes with a file of about $15,000 in receipts and restoration (most of restoration was done by previous owner). Essential work was done at a qualified local antique Jaguar dealer. The paint was done about 10 years ago and is in great shape. I believe it is the original color. All the essential upgrades have already been done. Steel brake lines. Upgraded cooling system that almost all of these have and need. Original wheels, including the spare! Most of the interior switches work (at least the essential ones: wipers, interior lights, headlights, brake lights, reverse lights). The tachometer works, but the speedometer/odometer does not. Right turn signal does not work. All glass is crystal clear. Brakes work great and it stops very quickly. Shifts smoothly without any grinding of gears. Starts right up. Would not hesitate to take on road trip today. Tires have great tread. Does not have air-conditioning or a radio (would be an easy install). The original heater is not installed, but it comes with the car as well as 2 boxes of spare parts.

I just had this to the Import car show in Carlisle, PA and it was the only Series I there and it was definitely a show stopper. I couldn't get good pictures from underneath the car, but it is well sorted out with no rust (the body was beautifully restored). This car would look even more fantastic with the chrome being sent out and polished up, which isn't a big deal.

Only reason I am selling it is that due to some family changes it would probably be sitting in the garage most of the time. These need to be driven.

Overall, this is a great running very desirable 4-speed, matching numbers, straight body E-type that could be driven anywhere safely right now. Besides a few odds and ends that need tidied up it has everything to drive safely and to enjoy today. The interior leather is the biggest lacking thing on this car (kits are available online to replace it). All of the expensive upgrades have been done.

Apparently, the value of these E-types is going up because Jaguar just released the new F-type.

$2,000 is due within 24 hours of end of auction and the rest of the balance is due within 7 days by cashiers check/bank check or cash. I will work with buyer to ship the car as needed, I am flexible. I reserve right to end auction early.

Please do not hesitate to ask questions.

There are probably things that I am leaving out and am sure as I post this add there will be things I forgot. I will update add as needed, but I believe I have described the car accurately and tried to take good pictures.

Thanks

2014 Jaguar XFR-S is the power and the fury

Thu, 29 Nov 2012

If there's something wrong about a sedan with a 550-horsepower supercharged V8, we don't want to hear about it. Instead, we want to marvel at the car in person, which is fortuitous because Jaguar has officially unveiled the 2014 XFR-S at the 2012 LA Auto Show. That blown 5.0-liter V8 dishes up a full 502 pound-feet of torque, which is good enough to shuttle the four-door to 60 mph in a scant 4.4 seconds. And, thanks to a start stop system and a few other fuel-saving tricks, the 2014 XFR-S gets away without being hit by the gas guzzler tax.
That's all good news, but we're just as excited about the fact that engineers managed to crank up the vehicle's chassis stiffness by a ludicrous 30 percent. Stiffer dampers and springs also give the car a little more poise, and a wide-open exhaust lets the whole world know you're kicking down their door. You know, in case the electric blue paint and wild body work didn't tip your hand. Check out the full gallery above for a closer look.

Leno and Ian Callum pilot Jaguar XK120 at 2014 Mille Miglia

Mon, 02 Jun 2014

Jay Leno has been in a British mood recently with his videos highlighting the McLaren P1, 1962 Norton 650SS and Steve McQueen's 1956 Jaguar XKSS. He's keeping the streak alive this week with a look at driving a Jaguar XK120 in the 2014 Mille Miglia historic rally with Jaguar Design Director Ian Callum.
The video show off Jay Leno's Garage in top form. It's way more than just Jay driving the 1,000-mile route from Brescia, Italy, to Rome and back. He also includes interviews with Stirling Moss about winning the race back in 1955, and racer Martin Brundle about what it's like to drive a long-nose Jaguar D-Type this year.
Today, the Mille Miglia is only for historic cars, and it has a much more relaxed pace than the original all-out event. However, this isn't entirely a cruise. Leno seems scared at times talking about it because the drivers are free to ignore the speed limits and open the cars up as much as they are willing to. The roads aren't shut down for regular traffic, either, and things can be dangerous.

Jaguar Land Rover may buy Silverstone racetrack for new HQ

Thu, Dec 3 2015

Jaguar Land Rover might add another chapter to its venerable motorsports legacy by purchasing the revered UK racetrack Silverstone to use as its new company headquarters. JLR could reportedly offer 22.7 million pounds ($34.1 million at current rates) to buy the circuit, according to Automotive News Europe, which cites several British media sources. The British automaker would then invest the equivalent of $78 million to turn the historic track into a celebration of the brand, including a museum, experience center, and hotel. The company would also construct space for its marketing team and engineers, Automotive News Europe reports. Motorsports would still continue there, too, which means the course's Formula One legacy is safe. Neither JLR nor the British Racing Drivers' Club, which leases the track, have confirmed the rumors. The BRDC only suggested that it received several confidential offers to purchase the circuit. Silverstone has a motorsports history that goes back to the late 1940s and is often the home to the Formula One British Grand Prix. The track's organizers have a long-term deal to continue hosting the F1 race, too. Today, the course also features major events from MotoGP and the FIA World Endurance Championship. In November, Jaguar released a video that celebrated some of its legacy at Silverstone by bringing the modern XJR and Le Mans-winning XJ-R9 LM at the track. If the company's purchase happens, you can expect to see a lot more Jags and probably some Land Rovers lapping the course. Related Video:
