 1994 Jaguar XJS 2+2 convertible, automatic, 110k miles. Clean OR title, current tags. Selling as I've just purchased an XJR... which is a little more practical with kids. As anyone who knows the later XJSs will know - the back seats are more of a suggestion than actual seats. They're quite good for keeping boxes of things warm and cosy though.

This car was my daily driver up until around a month ago - I wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere. It has no overheating issues, the transmission is smooth, and it starts first time every time. The trip computer even works.

Car needs nothing mechanically. It had a few electrical issues when I bought it, but I've fixed most of those:
  • Power convertible top works properly. Replaced all the relays, reset the rear side windows. The top goes up and down as it should.
  • Driver and passenger power seats work perfectly. Passenger seat has a rebuilt seat ECU.
  • Power windows work as they should. Replaced center console switches.
  • Headlights only worked on low beam. Replaced relays, hi/lo beam lights now work.
  • (most important of all, obviously) Stereo now works, as does the power antenna.
Cosmetically, the paint is pretty good - it looks great from ten feet away - as you'd expect from a 19 year old car, there are a few scratches here and there - there's one or two on the driver's door that have been touched up, and another on the rear quarter panel. I'm guessing it's been resprayed at some point in its life.

The A/C works just fine (fairly rare for a convertible, apparently), but the heater takes an age to get warm on a cold day. The front lower spoiler has two 1" cracks in it. The convertible top is watertight but could do with a proper clean, and the interior headliner needs replacing. I had a new tan headliner made, which will come with the car - I haven't fitted it myself because.. well.. it's December.

Other than that.. I'll let the photos speak for themselves. Yes, that is snow on the ground - it was 12F when I took the photos!

Usual stuff.. I require a deposit within 24 hours of auction end and the balance within seven days. I'm happy to take PayPal for the deposit, but the balance must be paid in cash or by a verifiable bank check / other secured means. I can assist with loading/shipping and I'm happy to store for longer if prior arrangement has been made.

Do please ask any and all questions.. it's a great car and I'd love to see it go to someone who can appreciate it. Thanks for reading!

Jaguar considering lightweight F-Type Club Sport?

Wed, 02 Apr 2014

In the market for a Jaguar F-Type? Then let us commend you, first of all, on your good taste. But you've got a difficult decision ahead of you: Do you go for the power of the V8 or the lighter weight of the V6? It's a tough call, even if the ~$30k range in price from the entry model to the flagship doesn't phase you.
Well, to make the decision easier (or potentially more difficult), Jaguar is said to be looking into yet another tempting option: that of a lightweight Club Sport model. Tipped to be based on the coupe (and not the heavier roadster), the F-Type Club Sport would allegedly shed a good 400 pounds or so off the curb weight, not so much through the removal of one component or another but through a "holistic" approach that would call on all aspects of the car to play their part in ditching excess weight. That could mean everything from carbon-fiber body panels to a stripped-out interior denuded of sound-deadening materials and creature comforts, says Auto Express.
In developing the rumored F-Type Club Sport, Jaguar is apparently facing a similar dilemma to what buyers are pondering: will it base the track-focused model on the top-of-the-line F-Type R, with its 5.0-liter supercharged V8 driving 542 horsepower to the rear set of lighweight alloys but weighing down the schnoz? Or should it try to get more power out of the lighter 3.0-liter supercharged V6, which currently nets 340 hp in base form and 380 in S spec? Let Jag know what you'd do by leaving your thoughts in Comments.

Are you the Jaguar F-Type Coupe R-S?

Fri, 23 Aug 2013

It's no secret that Jaguar is working on a fixed-roof version of the F-Type roadster, but now it looks like it's also developing a high-performance model for said coupe. Captured sharpening its claws at the Nürburgring, this F-Type Coupe prototype could very well be an R-S or even a more track-ready R-S GT variant.
Our biggest clue suggesting the latter are its massive brake rotors with bright-yellow calipers - similar pieces are also found on the recently introduced XKR-S GT. This would make sense, since a report in May said that Jaguar is looking to create a full line of R-S GT models in a similar fashion as the Mercedes-Benz AMG Black Series. Missing from this prototype, though, are the telltale aero add-ons we seen on the XKR-S GT - go-faster bits like the latter's front fascia winglets and rear wing, though this model is obviously still being developed. Regardless of what this new grippier, quicker kitty is called, we say "Yes, please."

Jaguar Classic heading to Le Mans with vintage racers

Wed, Feb 3 2016

A grid full of vintage Jaguars will rumble into France in July to race in the Jaguar Classic Challenge during the Le Mans Classic. The event should give motorsport fans plenty to watch with a bevy of pre-1966 Jags on the famous circuit, including E-Types, XKs, C-Types, D-Types, and even the company's sedans. Jaguar launched the vintage racing series last year to build on the success of the popular E-type Challenge. It continues with a five-event calendar this season but swaps out a meeting at Brands Hatch to go to Le Mans – hard to argue with that change. The drivers also get to lap Donington Park, Silverstone, the Nurburgring, and Oulton Park. Le Mans is practically a home track for these classic Jags. The British automaker dominated the 24-hour race there in the 1950s, including overall victories in '51, '53, '55, '56, and '57. "Watching a diverse array of pre-1966 Jaguars racing on the iconic circuit, some of which even raced there in period, will surely be a sight not to be missed," Tim Hannig, Jaguar Land Rover Classic Director, said in the season announcement. Again, we find it hard to argue with that sentiment.

The Le Mans Classic will be one of the major highlights of the forthcoming season that will see a diverse field of pre-1966 Jaguars going wheel-to-wheel in the competitive single-marque series. Jaguar has a long and successful history at Le Mans, with the marque first winning there back in 1951 with Peter Walker and Peter Whitehead driving the C-type - affectionately known as XKC 003. A one-two finish followed this in 1953 with the duo of Tony Rolt and Duncan Hamilton taking overall honours. Jaguar dominated Le Mans for three consecutive years in 1955, 1956 and 1957 in the D-type.
