2 Seater Coupe, Xke, E-type, 4.2liter, Series 1. on 2040-cars
Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
|
1967 Jaguar 4.2litre e-type Series 1 fixed head coupe - the very best of
the e-types. Over the years, his wonderful car has been restored to very
high mechanical and cosmetic standards. But she remains a real car having been driven 3,200miles over the past 6 years by me,
the current owner. She spent most of her corrosion free life in the Denver,
Colorado region but since 2008 resides in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada where she
has shared space in a heated garage with my xk140. Finished in the original opalescent maroon with burgundy interior,
the engine, gearbox, chassis and body numbers all match as attested by the Jaguar
Daimler Heritage Trust certificate. The car runs just how you would hope. Oil pressure is always
between 40 and 60psi. Water temperature never gets too high before electric fan
cuts in. All toggle switches and controls work properly as do all the
instruments (except of course the clock). She rides firm, free from rattles and
pulls strong with no smoke. And the sound………… priceless. When I first acquired her, most of the restoration work had
been done. However, some fine tuning
was called for as detailed in the following list. ·
Differential and rear gearbox seals were replaced.
·
A high torque starter was installed. ·
Rack and pinion and the steering column were
overhauled ·
Cylinder head was machined and new valves and
valve guides installed. ·
Aluminum valve covers and SU carbs were polished
and head repainted in correct pumpkin color. ·
Stainless steel exhaust system, including new mufflers
and silencers were installed. ·
The exhaust manifold was ceramic coated. ·
The front and rear brakes were overhauled with
new brake calipers and pads. The brake master cylinder and brake booster were
also replaced. The five wheels and tires, and the four spinners, are like new. ·
Among the lesser items; a new battery tie down
and a new driver’s side window winding mechanism were installed. The alternator
bearings were replaced. Electronic ignition (Petronix) was installed. A new tie
rod and ball joint boots were installed as were new motor and steering rack
mounts. A new high-amp battery was installed. Weatherstripping and rubber seals
were replaced as required. Sound deadening material was installed on the spare
wheel well floor. The cubbie box and the interior arm rests were refinished. ·
The carpeting appears to be original. However
new, correctly designed and fabricated driver and passenger floor mats, with
under-padding, were added. ·
The leather seats show the expected wear of 50 year
old Connelly hides. Recently, the patina
degraded to a small tear on the driver side bolster. This has been repaired and
in the process, the foam squab underlying the leather was rebuilt. ·
A couple of years ago, the original steering
wheel was replaced by a new period-correct MotoLita wheel. The original, still
in great shape, will come with the car. ·
Last year, the entire bonnet was removed to fix
a ding the size of a dime (It happens when you accidentally drop a tool onto
the bonnet). It was taken down to bare metal, repainted and put back on the
car. It is flawless and a perfect match to the rest of the body. Most of the above work has been done professionally by
the best classic car restoration shops in Northern Alberta. Some of the less
complicated stuff I did myself. Back in 2010, the car was professionally photographed and a coffee table style book produced. Pictures from that book cannot be shown here as they re copyrighted. The book will come with the car as will a collection of publications about the marque. I have enjoyed this magnificent sports car for six years and
now it’s some else’ turn. (One of my fondest memories of her was a road trip
from Edmonton, Alberta, through the Rockies and coastal range mountains to
Victoria, British Columbia – and back. 1,650 miles without a hitch). As nice as this car is, she’s not perfect. Like all these
big cats, she marks her territory with dribbles of oil. There at least one
parking lot ding (too small to photograph) and there is a couple of small blisters
under the paint near the top of one of the rear wheel openings (see photo). The brakes,
though effective, are not up to modern standards. The front suspension
wishbones should probably be bead blasted to get them looking new. The
windshield washers have never worked. A small area of the vinyl covering on the
instrument panel has come unglued(see photo) and
should be fixed. There is the tiniest of cracks in the left tail light lens
(see photo).There are probably a few other non-concourse items that I haven’t
identified but as far as I can tell, that’s it for warts. She comes with a complete set of period British (non-Jaguar)
tools in a new pouch. Thor’s hammer and a jack are not included. I didn't have enough space to include them here but I can send photos of the undercarriage showing she is totally free of rust. The car does come with the custom made car cover that is
shown in one of the photos. I would encourage potential bidders to personally inspect
the car or have someone do it on your behalf. This auction is with no reserve.
The starting bid is well below the guidelines for this vehicle. I will be
pleased to assist the buyer to make arrangements for shipping anywhere in the
World though the cost of transportation will be borne by the buyer. If you have
any questions, please feel free to ask and I will answer as promptly as I am
able. Happy bidding. |

Jaguar Land Rover reportedly developing Road Rover car
Tue, Sep 26 2017Reports are circulating in the automotive media that Jaguar Land Rover is developing a vehicle that's not an SUV. Called the Road Rover, it would be an all-electric luxury car with "some" all-terrain capability, hinting at all wheel drive. Initially, the EV would launch in late 2019, then spawn more models to complete the lineup. There is also talk about JLR's interest in an outright purchase of an existing luxury car brand to join its portfolio, and that parent company Tata has already given this strategic move the green light. Tata has also reportedly made moves to protect its JLR ownership via acquiring more of its own stock. All this excitement brings to mind the fact that there once existed an actual Road Rover — the Rover brand. Having evolved into MG Rover before going into administration in 2005 and subsequently reborn in China under SAIC Motor ownership, Rover was a moderately posh British carmaker just beneath the level of prestige that Jaguar offered. For some years, both were part of the same corporation. The last Rover saloons were designed and built with BMW input, and at that point Land Rover had already become part of Ford, almost a decade after Jaguar did. Ford's tenure with Land Rover lasted from 2000 to 2008, when Tata bought the British brand — along with the Rover name. Would it just make sense to badge the road car Rover, with no Road or Land affixed to it? Rover's slovenly demise is more than a decade old now, but there's plenty of valuable history still embedded in the long-shelved Viking ship logo. Cast aside memories of Sterling-badged Honda Legend platform siblings and unattractively Federalized SD1 series cars, and take whatever good the 1999-2005 Rover 75 brought to the table — maybe it's time for Rover to be reborn in the current Jaguar Land Rover family. According to Autocar, the first Road Rover would be developed in tandem with the next-generation Jaguar XJ, so they would share an aluminum architecture suitable for both internal combustion engines and battery electric technology, depending of the model. If anything, there is delicious irony to this: The 1980s XJ generation that Jaguar spent decades developing was claimed to be engineered in such a way that the occasional stablemate Rover's Buick-derived 3,5-liter V8 wouldn't have fit in its engine bay — to preserve the Jaguar bloodline. To have the new XJ and a Rover cross paths again would only be fitting. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.
2024 Jaguar F-Pace makes more style standard equipment
Sat, Dec 24 2022Jaguar has overhauled its F-Pace offer for global markets, moving the rest of the world to the 2024 model year before the end of 2022. For countries that get the F-Pace P400e PHEV, the good news is the lithium-ion battery's been given an extra cell module to increase capacity to 19.2 kWh. That takes pure electric range from 33 miles to 40 miles on the WLTP cycle. Jaguar says this trim accounts for more than 10% of F-Pace sales globally, a healthy tally considering North America accounts for perhaps a third of global sales and Jaguar doesn't offer its flagship PHEV here yet. In countries that favor electrified vehicles like the Netherlands, Jaguar says uptake can reach 98%. The rest of the F-Pace range has been reworked so that every model gets the R-Dynamic trim package, eliminating the base F-Pace and F-Pace S. In full-featured markets, the trim step from bottom to top goes, R-Dynamic S on 19-inch wheels, R-Dynamic SE on 20-inch wheels, R-Dynamic HSE on 21-inch wheels, 400 SPORT and SVR both on 22-inch wheels, plus a choice of six engines. If this change is applied to our market, we'll be left with the F-Pace R-Dynamic S and F-Pace SVR, and two engines. New standard equipment means better spec for some versions, a TFT digital gauge cluster and the Pivi Pro infotainment system part of the purchase price. The infotainment comes with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, what3words navigation and Alexa integration. The R-Dynamic SE comes with wireless charging, the R-Dynamic HSE now comes with an Ebony Suedecloth headliner standard. If opting for the Black Pack on models that don't come with it, more external bits are drenched in the dark gloss: grille and grille surround, side mirror caps, fender vents, window surrounds, rear valance and rear badges. Detail changes include wheel center caps going monochrome black and silver instead of red and silver, and the R-Dynamic badge going monochrome black and gray instead of red and green. The 2024 F-Pace can be ordered now outside of North America. Jaguar should let us know soon what goodness we'll be getting. Related video: This content is hosted by a third party.

2019 Jaguar I-Pace pricing announced, starting at $70,495
Tue, Mar 6 2018The Jaguar I-Pace electric vehicle arrives in the United States later this year with a starting price of $70,495, including destination, putting it head-to-head with luxury EV rivals like the Tesla Model S sedan and Model X crossover. Jaguar's fully-electric crossover is powered by two electric motors, one at the front and another at the rear, with the battery pack nestled in an underfloor, positioned in-between the front and rear axles. This powertrain not only provides the all-wheel-drive I-Pace with a low center of gravity and perfect 50:50 weight distribution, it delivers a total of 394 horsepower and 512 pound-feet of torque. According to Jaguar's stopwatch, the I-Pace accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in only 4.5 seconds and has a top speed of 124 mph. That lives up to the performance level a customer expects from Jaguar – not to mention being a match for the straight-line speed of Tesla's offerings at this price range. It should be noted, however, that despite aligning on price and performance with models S and X, the I-Pace is a bit closer in size to the Model 3. As we've already noted, the Jaguar's 90-kWh lithium-ion battery pack provides a useful range of up to 240 miles between charges. When you're running low on juice, a 100-hW DC fast charger will provide 80 percent of range in only 40 minutes. That's still a considerable amount of time compared to filling up with gasoline, though it's much better than the hours-long wait EVs usually required only a few years ago. Plugging in at home does require more patience, however. Using a 230-volt, 32-amp Level 2 home-charger requires just over 10 hours to recharge your I-Pace. Three trim levels are offered: S, SE, and HSE. There will also be a fully-loaded, one-year-only "First Edition" based on the HSE trim level, which carries a price of $86,895. In fact, it's very easy to start adding options – and a heftier tab – onto the base price of the I-Pace. Available safety features on the entry-level model include blind-spot assist, adaptive cruise control with steering assist, high-speed emergency braking, and a 360-degree surround-view camera. The First Edition model is pretty much the upper limit of I-Pace pricing, and comes fitted with all those safety features, along with a full leather interior, 20-inch alloy wheels, a 15-speaker Meridian surround sound stereo, and premium LED headlights. It's worth noting that Jaguar includes a substantial 8-year/100,000-mile battery warranty with each I-Pace.
