Southington, Connecticut, United States

Up for auction is a 1986 Jaguar XJS 2-door coupe,  It has the 5.3L V-12 HE engine and GM 400 automatic transmission.  I bought the car to fix-up a few years ago but didn't have the time to get involved in it.  The interior is blue with a power moon roof.  Front seats are worn in the typical places.  The laquer on the wood trim is cracked and/or peeling in multiple places but the underlying wood appears good.  There is rust along the bottom of the door edges, in the trunk under the battery tray area and on the fenders.  There are also some dents from a tree limb.  (Please see the pictures).  The car drove, handled and shifted well the last time it was driven.  It hasn't been started in a few years so at this point it's good to still fix up or be used as a parts car. It's being offered with NO RESERVE.   At the time the engine ran rough and the ignition amplifier or a bad injector was suspected, but it was never fully diagnosed.  I haven't inspected it, but expect the typical conditions from a sitting car in the brakes and fuel system as well.  I've tried accurately represent the body and interior condition in the included pictures.  This vehicle is being auctioned AS IS with no guarantees expressed or implied.  If you have any additional questions or would like additional pictures or to arrange a viewing please contact me and I'll do my best to accommodate you.  PLEASE BID ONLY IF YOU INTEND TO PURCHASE AND PICK UP THE CAR WITHIN 14 DAYS.  $499.00 deposit is required via Pay Pal within 24 hours of the end of the auction.  I'll also accept cash or a bank certified check from the U.S.  Please make your financial arrangements ahead of time.  Please note, I need the space freed in my driveway to work on other projects that are being held up.  Arrangement and cost of transporting the vehicle is the buyer's responsibility.  Please contact me at the auction close to arrange a time.  The winning bidder must arrange to have the vehicle picked-up at their expense within 14 DAYS OF THE AUCTION CLOSE or forfeit the deposit.  If there's an extreme condition preventing it contact me and I'll do my best to work with you.

CMC to produce limited run of Callum's Jaguar Mark 2 [w/video]

Thu, 04 Sep 2014

We were a more than a little jealous when designer Ian Callum revealed his Jaguar Mark 2 restomod that he commissioned from Classic Motor Cars. It turns out that we weren't the only ones that dug it - the reaction was so great that CMC got Callum's permission to create a limited run of them for customers. Although, with prices quoted between £350,000 and £375,000 ($572,000 - $613,000), we doubt Ian needs to worry about seeing a copy of his creation pass him too soon.
"Within hours we had received calls from people all over the globe asking if they could buy one," said Peter Neumark, Chairman of CMC in the latest announcement. The reaction came as a surprise to Callum, who said he designed the car entirely to his own specifications and actually wasn't sure if people would like it.
Among Callum's many changes are new bumpers, wider front fenders with functional louvers and less chrome trim. Under the hood is a 4.3-liter six-cylinder fitted with two SU carbs putting out around 260 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque. It should be a much better driver too, with a completely re-engineered independent rear suspension, adjustable dampers at all four corners, improved brakes and a new rack and pinion steering system designed by CMC with electric assist.

Jaguar 3 Series-fighter to spawn coupe, wagon

Wed, 25 Sep 2013

With its sights set on the BMW 3 Series, Jaguar could be planning a full range of models for its upcoming entry-level car - possibly called the XS. We've already seen spy shots of the four-door version of this all-aluminum baby Jag, but according to Auto Express, the automaker will also offer the car in coupe and wagon variants.
The XS sedan should hit the market in 2015, and the coupe and wagon models are expected soon after that. Speaking with Jag's global brand director Adrian Hallmark, AE says that the XS will be focused on styling with a design similar to the recently introduced C-X17 crossover concept. Hallmark also said that the addition of the XS lineup could help Jaguar double its sales, which were at 357,773 global units in 2012. Head on over to Auto Express for some speculative renderings of the XS coupe and wagon.

Jaguar XFR-S is motor-porn on a mountain road

Tue, 04 Dec 2012

The 2014 Jaguar XFR-S might have only been good enough to take the runner-up spot in our Editor's Choice top five debuts at the LA Auto Show, but we'd be hard-pressed to find a car with a more exhilarating exhaust note. As proof of this, Jaguar released a video showing the XFR-S tearing up a windy, European mountain road in close to a minute of hardcore driving footage.
The big blue cat has the same great exhaust note of the XKR-S, and the driver puts all of the car's 550 horsepower to work demonstrating the handling - and drifting - abilities of the new XFR-S. If there's any disappointment to be had, it's the fact that you have to jump to the 30-second mark of the video for any of the action to start.
Scroll down to watch the video, and be sure your speakers are turned all the way up.
