THIS IS A REALLY COOL LITTLE CAR. WE DROVE IT LOCALLY, PURELY FOR MOM AND POP DAYS. THAT WAS IN 2012, DIDN'T USE IT LAST YEAR. THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE CHARGE. I WAS TOLD BY A MECHANIC THAT IT IS EITHER THE NEGATIVE CABLE OR THE POSITIVE THAT RUNS FROM THE BATTERY. THERE IS A FUSE IN THEM AND SOMETIMES THEY BLOW IF THE CAR HAS BEEN JUMPED WITH CABLES. IF NOT THAT, IT IS THE ALTERNATOR. THE HEADLINER SAGS DOWN BY THE REAR WINDOW. THE SPEEDOMETER AND ODOMETER WORK PERIODICALLY. THERE WAS A LITTLE BIT OF RUST AROUND THE HEADLIGHTS AND ALONG THE BOTTOM OF THE DOORS BUT I FIXED THAT. FOR SOME REASON I CANT GET IT TO FIRE THIS YEAR BUT THE ENGINE TURNS OVER. NEW BATTERY. I DONT HAVE TIME TO FIDDLE WITH IT, AM CURRENTLY RESTORING TWO ANTIQUE VEHICLES. THERE IS A COUPLE OF SMALL SCRATCHES.THIS IS ALSO A VANDAS PLAS. IF YOU HAVE A LITTLE TIME TO INVEST IN THIS LITTLE CAR I KNOW YOU WILL LOVE IT. HERE IN MY STATE IT CAN BE REGISTERED AS AN ANTIQUE. I AM THE 3RD OWNER OF THIS CAR. THE LAST ONE BOUGHT IT AT AN AUCTION AFTER THE ORIGINAL OWNER TRADED IT. THE SECOND OWNER DIDN'T USE IT, JUST PUT IT UP FOR SALE. ACTUALLY I GOT IT HERE ON EBAY. THE BUYER WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SHIPPING AND I WILL REQUIRE THE WINNING BID TO MAKE PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS WITHIN 48 HOURS. THANK YOU. |

Jaguar Land Rover gets to work on new university R&D center
Fri, Mar 20 2015Jaguar Land Rover has a raft of new products in the pipeline, from the new Defender to the next-generation XF sedan. But new product isn't the only thing the British automaker is investing in: it's also opening new facilities around the world, including what it's calling the National Automotive Innovation Centre back home in the UK. Based at the University of Warwick, the new $220-million R&D center is the result of a joint effort between JLR, its parent company Tata, the manufacturing arm of the university and the British government. The facility will bring together professionals from the automaker as well as its suppliers with academics to encourage, as the name suggests, innovation in the automotive sector. Its 355,000 square feet are earmarked to become the hub for Jaguar Land Rover's advanced research activities, including "workshops, laboratories, virtual engineering suites and advanced powertrain facilities, equipped to enable a full range of design, visualisation and prototyping activities." The cornerstore was just laid in a ceremony this week, but the facility isn't due to open until the Spring of 2017 when it will encompass some 1,000 employees, including 600 relocated by JLR to the new location from other sites in the UK.

Jaguar Land Rover and Chery investing in Chinese plant
Sat, 24 Nov 2012While the European auto market for Jaguar and Land Rover is waning, Chinese car buyers can't get enough of the British marques. To meet that demand, Tata Motors, parent company of Jag and Land Rover, is partnering with Chinese automaker Chery Automobile Co.
The two announced plans to invest $1.75 billion to build a new plant and create a new, China-focused brand. 2014 is the target for completion of the factory. Jaguars and Land Rovers built at the facility will be the first ever produced outside the UK according to the Associated Press. The JV will be called Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Company Ltd.
The announcement comes less than a month after JLR announced it would open a design studio in China. It's not clear from the reports whether the two announcements are part of the same JV or two separate plans.
This Jaguar D-Type is what you should spend your multimillion-dollar holiday bonus on
Tue, Dec 5 2017The end of the year is fast approaching, your holiday shopping is done, and the mutual fund you help manage is paying out some serious bonuses. What do you do with all that sweet cash? Well, if it's over seven figures, we suggest hanging on to it until January when it could help you buy this amazing 1954 Jaguar D-Type race car. The D-Type, for those of you unfamiliar, is Jaguar's famous race car that gave birth to the road-going XKSS, one of which was owned by Steve McQueen. The D-Type was known for its successes on the track, and frequent appearances at Le Mans, with a victory at the endurance race in 1956. This particular car also raced there in 1954 with the Jaguar factory team, and behind the wheel was Sir Stirling Moss. According to RM Sotheby's, it led the race for a major chunk, but eventually retired due to brake issues. The car was campaigned at other events through the year, and it also saw time at the hands of a privateer team that bought the car in 1955. Many decades later, the car is being offered for public sale for the first time in its life at the RM Sotheby's auction in Arizona, Jan. 18-19. According to the auction company, the car features the original body, chassis, drivetrain and suspension. Between the history and the originality, the company is expecting the car to bring between $12 million and $15 million, hence the reason this is probably just for those with seriously massive holiday bonuses. But if you have the means, you could do way worse than spending it on this Jaguar.
