1989 Jaguar Xjs 5.2l V12 Convertible on 2040-cars
New York, New York, United States
|
I am selling my 1989 Jaguar 300HP XJS. I love this car. How much? I put 5k miles on this car in 3 months - AND I LIVE IN NYC. Car has been parked in a garage from the day it was made, the second owner had the car for nearly 20 years. I kept on the tradition of over-maintaining things. You can ask my wife, cleaning, servicing, upgrading on a weekly basis.
Why am I selling? The rare opportunity to own a vintage Ferrari has come up, and quite frankly I can't afford to garage two high end cars in NYC. If I lived in the suburbs there would be no question - I'd keep it. Perfect for the early morning drives. Long road trips. Loves long miles and high speeds. The high rev sound of the V12 engine is out of this world. Serious bidders only. I'm honest and candid and happy to answer all questions. Please inspect car to your liking. Reserve right to lower reserve price. Exterior - Paint in excellent condition. Small chips (as car collectors will be used to) that are only visible if pointed out directly. Only superficial, size of a pencil point and only through to primer. Have not seen better original paint from XJS of this year. Wheels are in perfect shape with original undamaged uncracked center jaguar caps. Interior - Very good conditions. Perfect sans 2 things. 1. Center wood slope could be replaced. Approximately $200 on ebay. 2. Piping on driver's side seat torn a bit. Another small repair. Outside of that there are NO blemishes. All wood in great condition. Dashboard in mint condition. All guages and switches and great working order. The carpets are in PERFECT condition. The original owner put cheap aftermarket carpets over the original so there are no stains in the wool whatsover. Leather is soft and uncracked which is rare for a 25 year old convertible! A/C blows cold and heat blows hot. Onboard "computer" works perfectly. Comes with stock cassette deck that is in perfect condition (sorry no Journey or Van Halen cassettes included). Engine - My jaguar mechanic told me this is the second cleanest engine compartment he's ever seen (at least I'm being honest). No rust, no dirt. Has really been taken care of. This car is stored in a closed indoor garage and is not driven in rain. Take a look for yourself and compare with others online and let me know if you've found a cleaner engine compartment. Running Order - Absolutely fantastic. Car accelerates fast, shifts perfectly, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, RUNS COOL. I did a full radiator flush and bleed a month ago. In addition to that I upgraded the auxiliary fan switch to a lower temperature trigger. Car runs well below the "N" during normal driving (in between the N and C). In bumper to bumper this runs at the bottom of the N. Please read jaguar forums for information about this - distributor and engine temperature are the 2 most important issues with this car). Service History - Extensive, approximately 20 years worth in hard paper form, including major services which are recommended by Jaguar aficiandos including the infamous distributor overhaul. Wrinkled old window sticker as well (Listed at $59k in 1989) Upgrades - Since March 2014 - 1) Upgraded growler intakes, adds around 15hp (I will include original silenced black airboxes as well if you'd like to swap back), 2) Mid resonator delete, and cat delete (car is exempt from exhaust testing because its 1989 / OBD-I vintage) - adds around 20HP, 3) new break pads, 4) New power steering high pressure hose, 5) New seals for rear differential I invite all mechanics or car guys to inspect. Happy to furnish you with VIN reports. |

Jaguar XE to start at $35,895, XF at $52,895
Thu, Sep 3 2015Jaguar has announced pricing for two of its most anticipated models, the new, entry-level XE sedan and the second-generation XF. The British marque also released price changes across its range and unveiled a new customer service pack called EliteCare. As you can see from the headline, the new XE starts at $35,895. That'll score you the base model, the so-called 25t, and its 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine. That puts the baby Jag right in the meat of a very competitive segment. It'll be undercut by the Cadillac ATS, BMW 320i, and Acura TLX, but it's a good bit more affordable than the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, Infiniti Q50, or Lexus IS. If you like your fuel extra smelly and your torque to be offered by the bucket-full, be prepared to shell out $37,395. The 340-horsepower, 3.0-liter, supercharged-V6-powered XE 35t will require at least $42,695. The XE's big brother, meanwhile, is subject to a significant price drop. The new base model, the 340-horsepower 35t, rings up at just $52,895, or over $5,200 less than the entry level V6-powered 2015 XF. Once again, Jag has parked itself in the middle of a popular segment, although unlike the XE, the vehicles that undercut the XF – the Infiniti Q70 and Acura RLX – are old or not particularly popular among consumers. That's good news for JLR, since the new sedan easily undercuts the BMW 5 Series and Audi A6, while sneaking in just below the likes of the Mercedes E-Class or Cadillac CTS. And if you're in mourning for the 2.0-liter, turbocharged XF, don't be – the new 35t is only $2,000 more expensive, is lighter, and has 100 more horsepower. Finally, we have Jaguar's new EliteCare program. Essentially, should you purchase anything from model year 2016 and beyond, your car will be subject to a limited warranty, free scheduled service, and 24/7 roadside assistance for five years or the first 60,000 miles of ownership. Owners will also have access to Jaguar's InControl Remote and Protect services for the first 60 months. According to the Brits, the warranty is the best in the class, while the free maintenance lasts longer than the competition. Read on for the full press release from Jaguar, which includes details and other small pricing tweaks for the company's range.

Jaguar builds F-Type to support Tour de France team [w/video]
Tue, 22 Jul 2014The Tour de France is typically a two-wheeled affair, dominated by cyclists yearning to capture the prestigious yellow jersey. While the 2014 event winds its way through Europe, Stage 20 will see an altogether different conveyance wind along the route between Bergerac and Périgueux - the Jaguar F-Type Coupe.
As part of its partnership with the British cyclists of Team Sky, Jag has enlisted its new Special Operations division to build a one-off F-Type Coupe, based on the 550-horsepower, supercharged R model.
SpecOps has removed the rear glass and come up with a creative solution to mount a pair of Team Sky's racing cycles in the back. Aside from that upgrade, the cabin boasts new upholstery in the colors of Team Sky's traditional livery. A separate power supply has been established below the bikes in what's left of the trunk, which provides juice for a set of radios and microphones, so that the team's director can communicate with the riders.
