1969 E TYPE JAGUAR 4.2 2+2 (LHD)

For Sale due to a change in work direction . This is a 1969 series 2, 2+2 4.2litre in sable with beautiful tan leather. I found the car in America and could not resist it, it was taken off the road by the previous owner in late 1977 (the 78 tax disc is still in the window). It is a genuine rust free car from an American Dry State and doesn't appear to have any welding done. The guy who owned the car spent 20+ years buying new genuine parts and refurbished the whole car (comprehensive receipts to prove). He spent over $20k on new parts. The car when parked up had done less that 30k miles, after getting the car back to this country I thought the paintwork was looking dull so it was fully repainted and is now mot'd and taxed and drives well, The interior is unused and so in mint condition as you can see in the photographs. I think you would be looking for a very long time to find such a rust free low mileage 4.2.

Please see my other auction as I am also selling the other E Type in the picture (Which will come under item number 130909489893) After many years of searching I managed to find the car I had been looking for, it is a series 3 5.3 V12 convertible a genuine rhd, British, 39,000 miles with manual gearbox in red with black leather it is fitted as standard with power steering and drives beautifully! It drives as well as a modern car, it has just had a new clutch fitted. The paint is near perfect as is the hood etc, it is quite rare as Jaguar made less than 2000 rhd cars and a lot of these were auto or sent to Australia. Therefore finding a genuine rhd British car and not one that has been re-imported and converted from lhd or auto was a challange. It took me along time to find and to be truthful I don't want to sell it but needs must! The number plate 110 OFM is not included in the price but is negotiable at a later date. This car does not appear to have ever had any welding done on it. It is an original un-restored vehicle with just a re-spray.

This/these cars can be delivered anywhere in the UK including any dock of your choice for shipping and export at a moderate cost.

Both cars are for sale seperately, but I would entertain a buy it now for both cars, to purchase both vehicles.

Please remember everyone's opinion of a vehicle is different. If you bid you bid to buy not to view. If you wish to view the vehicle please email or phone Dave on 07836250149. Selling with low start price. Happy Bidding!

Jaguar XE teased in new video, will debut September 8

Fri, 05 Sep 2014

Outside of a major auto show, this might be one of the best times of the year for new car debuts, and we couldn't be more excited. Just this week, the low-slung face of the next-generation Mazda MX-5 Miata showed itself to the world, and Land Rover debuted its new Discovery Sport. Plus, there's a double-whammy of launches on the imminent horizon with the unveilings of the Jaguar XE on September 8 and the Mercedes-AMG GT on September 9.
Jag is teasing the launch of its latest midsize luxury sedan with a few glimpses on video. It's strangely secretive, given the fact that Jaguar showed the XE's face completely un-camouflaged a few weeks ago. Regardless, it's quite a looker up front with a sleeker take on the shape of the larger XF.
Because of the way Jaguar is slowly leaking details about the XE, there are a few other things we already know about this new cat, too. It rides on a monocoque chassis made from over 75 percent aluminum, and the automaker is promising 75 miles per gallon fuel economy on the more lenient European cycle for at least one engine in the lineup.

Jaguar Land Rover opens winter testing facility in Minnesota

Wed, 12 Dec 2012

As it begins the rollout of the all-wheel-drive Jaguar XJ and XF models, Jaguar Land Rover has just announced that it has opened a new facility in northern Minnesota for winter testing. Located in International Falls, MN (on the US and Canadian border), the British automaker says it is one of the coldest locations in the Continental US. Jaguar's new Instinctive All Wheel Drive system was developed primarily to help sell more cars in the northern US, so it only makes sense to open a testing area in the US as well.
With temperatures that can drop to minus 55 degrees Fahrenheit, International Falls was chosen to mimic some of the worst weather a Jaguar or Land Rover will ever see. The grounds house testing chambers, various road surfaces and even a frozen lake. This new facility complements the hot-weather testing grounds in Phoenix, AZ.
The official press release is posted below.

2016 Jaguar F-Type S Coupe Quick Spin [w/video]

Thu, May 21 2015

The Jaguar F-Type – as either a coupe or a convertible Â– has proved easy to fall in love with. It's one of the best looking cars in the world, period. And it has been endowed since launch with lovely engine options on either end of the range, athletic rear-drive handling, and a tuneful exhaust that sets one's heart to thumping. So how does Jaguar improve on such a winning formula? The answer that enthusiasts have hoped for is that Jag offer its sports machine with a traditional manual gearbox. And for the 2016 model year, those hopes have been fulfilled. Always wiling to take one for the team, I flew out to New York state to drive the 2016 F-Type S Coupe, fitted with the new manual transmission. (The trip included time in the F-Type R AWD that you'll hear more about later, and a long stint in the Range Rover Sport SVR, so I wasn't exactly shy about requesting the gig.) The short version is that the F and the 6MT get along like special sauce, lettuce, and cheese. But for the detailed blow-by-blow follow along. Driving Notes So, how is the manual? That's the primary force animating this review, after all. The short answers are: great, fine, just dandy. The middleweight clutch (not too light, not too firm) is easy to operate at speed or in heavy traffic. The gearlever offers positive, smooth action, not particularly mechanical, with throws that are of average length. The closest analogous experience I've had is with BMW manuals, though the Jag's clutch is slicker. But the biggest win for the stick shift in the F-Type is spiritual (if you'll excuse my being a bit romantic). This is after all the heir to the E-Type legend, a stirring rear-drive coupe (or convertible) that looks like wet sex and goes like heaving hell. The eight-speed automatic will continue to offer a more modern driving experience, but the manual just feels right with the car. You're going to have to prefer that kind of purity over outright speed to get the manual, too. Jag with sell you a hand-shaker with the base, 340-horsepower F-Type or the 380-horse F-Type S, but not with the V8 or new-for-'16 AWD variants. The supercharged V6 in the S is far from disappointing. Keep the sport exhaust active and you're likely to be the best sounding thing on the road that day, unless you run up on a coffee klatch of Ferraris.
