The Amazing Jaguar XJR, 1997 Sedan.
VEHICLE CONDITION:
THIS CAR IS NEARLY PERFECT CONDITION.  The exterior, I have to say, is practically flawless.
The paint job is EXCEPTIONALLY MINT. Only the tiniest scuff can be seen on the front bumper, the rest of the finish is superb and practically glows with a fine  midnight blue-black shine. I love hand washing it and it has definitely been well taken care of! Pride of ownership throughout. 
The interior, although it is less than mint condition, it is still totally clean, well taken care of and fully functioning.  It has some slight signs of wear on the seats (minimal) and part of the headliner is bowed,  but the rest of the interior is still in perfect, nice working condition and it looks absolutely great. 
Tires have 75% tread still left on them and the rims are in excellent condition.

  • OVERVIEW:
  • This 1997 Jaguar XJR is a finely tuned, exceptionally powerful, near mint condition vehicle that absolutely will turn heads wherever you go.  So, if you are the shy, reserved type this car probably wont do since there is not a day that goes by when I drive this car that people don't stop to comment on how beautiful she is!  I've met dozens of new people just by parking at the grocery stores and having folks stop me to comment on this car, saying things like "What a beautiful car!" and " I've got one of these beauties at home myself" and "Wow! Is that a Rolls Royce?!" (lol) and my favorite from a little boy, "I love your car, will you marry me?"  It is definitely a social "ice breaker" whether you like that perk or not, : )
    This car is so much fun to drive too, a real pleasure, smooth, like it is gliding over the pavement, responsive, quick acceleration, really powerful get up and go for sure! You can beat any hot rod out the gate with this performance driven ride! I enjoy my everyday errands ten times more when I get to drive the Jag. 

    • SO WHAT DO THE OTHER 1997 JAGUAR XJR DRIVER'S HAVE TO SAY?
    FOUR INDEPENDENT REVIEWS (FOUND AT: EDMUNDS.COM) FROM THE OWNERS THEMSELVES:
    #1) KING of the Road
    By Jeff on 1997 Jaguar XJR 4dr Sedan
    Review
    Being in the auto industry for over 25 years I did my research on this purchase, searched for 2 years for this beauty. You cannot find a better combination of style, class and performance out there for the buck. Replaced exhaust system with a stainless steel one i.e. mina, borla. Yoko's are the best tire. Get a radar detector!

    Favorite Features
    The stock HK stereo is out of this world.

    #2) Great Car
    By EricXJR37 on 1997 Jaguar XJR 4dr Sedan
    Review
    It's a beautiful car no doubt, it drives like a dream, for the 4.0L supercharged motor it's not really hard on gas I'd say I get 25 mpg . It's a real head turner, the 17 inch rims are nice for and stock rim from the dealer, I like the CD changer since it is easy to put 6 of my favorite cd's into the disc changer and listen to a variety of my favorite music all at the touch of a button.
    Favorite Features
    Performance , Luxury comfort, LOOKS are incredible, Supercharged in-line 6 way better on gas than a v12.

    #4) How come know one talks

          by  on   Vehicle: 1997 Jaguar XJR

    It'a rocket in hiding. If a BMW 540 owner ever had this car, he would be bragging about his V-8. Power is amazing at 322 HP. New Mods (V8's) have higher HP 370 but about the same same torque. Had many other HP luxury cars. This one has power is better than BMW's 540, or Mercedes 430 or Lexus 400 series. Reliability has been better than average for me. Brakes are way better than any any german car. I have 57K on original brakes and they still look good for another 20K. Both my BMW's and Mercedes ate brakes about ever 20-25K. Can't believe it took me this long to buy a Jaguar, I'm never going back to anything else!

    _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    Well, you've heard it straight from the "horse's mouth" with those reviews and WOW, what a car! Bells and whistles galore! Everything works just exactly as it should too, so be excited, you are getting a great vehicle. 

    Now, as an independent Jaguar XJR owner myself, I am here to tell you that this is by far MY FAVORITE CAR I HAVE EVER OWNED. 

    Offered today for sale to the highest bidder in a 7 day auction that ends NEXT SATURDAY, July 19, 2014 at 1pm with ABSOLUTELY NO RESERVE!!!

    TO THE LUCKY WINNER AND NEXT OWNER OF THIS XJR: "I purchased this car directly from an expert certified Jaguar mechanic who took excellent care of her and replaced the motor with an all OEM new v-6 supercharger as well as all new associated fuel injection system parts for a superior drive PLUS ADDITIONAL GAS MILEAGE PERKS.  Mileage on the motor is only 55,000 miles, actual car stated miles on the frame is still at a low 110,552 miles." 

    He said to me when I bought this Jaguar: "Please, TAKE GOOD CARE OF HER! She will be sorely missed!"  So, I ask you to do the same and I know you will!

    Are you the soon-to-be-revealed Jaguar CUV concept?

    Fri, 06 Sep 2013

    Following the teaser of the Jaguar CX-17 Concept released last weekend, the first official image of the Jaguar crossover concept appears to have hit the Internet ahead of its introduction at the Frankfurt Motor Show.
    Assuming this is the real deal, the tall, upright front end removes any doubt that this is anything but a preview for the upcoming Jaguar crossover, which will likely be called either the XQ or the Q-Series. Reports suggest that Jag's first-ever CUV is likely to go into production in 2016, and it will bring with it the option for a Jaguar-developed four-cylinder engine replacing the current mills still sourced from former parent Ford.

    Jaguar design boss Callum reinterprets classic Mark 2 for himself [w/video]

    Fri, 29 Aug 2014

    As the man behind the styling of basically every Jaguar since the mid 2000s, two things should be known about Ian Callum - he's a big fan of the brand, and he can bloody well get whatever kind of Jag he wants.
    His newest car, though, is not what you might expect. Rather than an F-Type or an XJ, Callum has gone old school, and commissioned a custom, resto-modded Jaguar Mark 2.
    Designed by Callum and built by Classic Motor Cars in Shropshire, England, the Mark 2 was an 18-month project between the designer and the garage. The essentially new car draws its power from a 4.3-liter engine that's been pilfered and modified from an XK. It's mated to a five-speed manual transmission.

    Jaguar and Land Rover to consolidate dealerships

    Thu, 29 Nov 2012

    Jaguar and Land Rover are set to merge their sales facilities, according to Inside Line. Jaguar Land Rover North America President Andy Gross says 45 percent of Jaguar owners also have an SUV in their stable, so it makes sense to give customers as much exposure to the cat's high-riding cousins and possible. The number of overall outlets will remain the same, and the brands will reportedly remain separate on the showroom floor, however.
    So far, just one dealer has made the move to combine under the roof of one 68,000 square-foot facility in Paramus, New Jersey (above), though a further 20 are ready to make the shift and become Jaguar Land Rover outlets. Gross believes the shift is necessary so that his company's dealer network will accurately reflect the company's products. We'll see how cozy the brands are when Jaguar starts rolling out its own SUVs in a few years.
