1989 Jaguar XK-S Cabriolet (Convertible) Only 40k miles! Completely Original. Mint.

The Jaguar XJ-S is a luxury grand tourer that replaced the legendary E-Type (or XK-E) in September 1975, and was based on the XJ saloon. It was an exceptional grand tourer, more aerodynamic than the E-Type, and was built over an amazing 21-year production life. This longevity is a testimony to its excellence and makes parts availability easy and reasonable.

The XJ’s amazingly ultra-smooth power comes from the legendary Jaguar V-12 engine, with notable other V-12s coming from Italian luxury sports car makers Lamborghini and Ferrari. The specifications of the XJ-S compared well with both Italian icons; it accelerates to 60 mph (97 km/h) in 7.8 seconds and reaches 142 mph (229 km/h). The heavy-duty GM Turbo-Hydromatic TH400 transmission is bulletproof and can be serviced widely.

Besides the silky smooth power of the V-12 and the unmatchable Jaguar ride, the XJ-S delivered luxury on a par with Bentley and Rolls Royce, with rich leather sport seats, high-gloss wood accents throughout the interior, and a host of amenities: Power Top, Power Steering, 4-wheel Power Disc Brakes, Climate Control A/C, AM/FM/Cassette Stereo, Power Windows, Power Seats, Power Lumbar, Power Door Locks, etc., etc.

This particular car is one of the finest examples of the XJ-S Convertible in the States. That is not an exaggeration. It is a 41k original mile, two-owner specimen that was garaged from new, and waxed, serviced and detailed religiously. Nothing has been changed or needed to be restored. No accidents or rust... in fact, very little separates this car from the day it was delivered. The engine compartment is immaculate, the paint and interior as perfect as a 25-year old car can be. (By the way, this like-new car nonetheless qualifies as an antique for insurance, inspection and registration.)

The mechanics of the car are noting short of superb. Everything on the car, from engine and transmission to the stereo and power accessories, operates exactly as they should. Given the proper care, this car should last a lifetime. Its built-quality is of the highest standard and its condition, unrivalled. Everything that came with the car originally, including the leather-bound owner’s manual, books, jack, boot, etc. are supplied.

Whether you are a Jaguar enthusiast, a collector, or someone looking for an affordable rare and distinctive automobile in perfect condition, this Jaguar is available for far less than the book value*, and will provide immeasurable driving and ownership pleasure. Offered for sale or interesting exchange. Please Call Michael at:  631 553 5300

*NADA Book Value: $14,300    *CPI Value Guide: $14,950

Chinese patent filing shows what could be next Royal Limo from Jaguar

Fri, 10 May 2013

Someone filed a patent application in China for the Jaguar XJ limousine seen above, but no one's sure who filed it or what the car is for. One camp thinks it's a State limo for UK royals like the Bentley State Limousine, another camp thinks it's the work of aftermarket coachbuilders.
One thing's for sure: Assuming it ever gets made, anyone who buys it wants an XJ in name only; the modifications have removed almost all of the grace of the standard sedan. Estimated to be more than three feet longer than an XJ, the stretched rear doors are backed by an even more stretched rear section that, in losing the trademark XJ C-pillar (the D-pillar on this car), adds all sorts of ungainliness to its backside. What's more, the roof rises from front to rear, we can only assume to make room for people with large hats. Or the NBA player that the Chinese call "Sweet Melon."
Head over to AutoSohu for more photos from the application, if you're sure that's what you really want.

Jaguar F-Type US order guide loose online

Fri, 08 Feb 2013


An alleged US order guide for the 2014 Jaguar F-Type has made its way online courtesy of the good people at F-TypeClub.com, documenting everything from wheel color options to special equipment packages. From the looks of things, buyers will be able to choose from a total of eight wheel designs in sizes ranging from 18 inches on the base model all the way up to 20 inches. While most of those rollers are available in either silver or black finishes, the 20-inch blade-style wheels are not only forged, but come with carbon-fiber trim. Fancy.
Depending on trim, F-Type buyers will get to choose between two types of seat, including a set of performance-style 14-way power adjustable thrones, complete with seat belts in black, red or tan. Other fun tricks include available power folding side view mirrors and a 770-watt, 14-speaker Meridian sound system.

Jaguar recalling XK Convertible and XF 2.0T sedan for unrelated issues

Fri, 16 Aug 2013

Jaguar has announced that it will be recalling 1,989 XK Convertibles produced between October 1, 2010 and August 1, 2013. Model years ranging from 2011 to 2014 are part of the recall.
The issue has to do with one of the switches the switch that controls the opening and closing of the convertible top. The switch also has to do with the operation of the power windows. According to the Feds, the switch doesn't move down to close the power windows, meaning that the window could accidentally close on the finger or arm of an inattentive person.
In related news, Jaguar is also recalling 940 2013 XF sedans powered by the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine for a hose that can detach underhood, which could cause the engine to stall or could leave the driver without power steering or brakes.
