Listed for auction is a totally original unmolested Jaguar E-type V12, 2+2 Auto, LHD. Finished in Old English White with Light Tan Interior.
 Both trim and paint are factory original.

Recently bought this E-type had not run for ten years. The car is now running and the following items have been replaced in order to present the car in running condition. Reconditioned Water Pump, all coolant hoses & Clips, Fan Switch, new complete Stainless Steele Exhaust System including Fantail, New Spark Plugs, Oil Filter, Oil change,  Air Filters and reconditioned Radiator. Following all these new items the car fired up immediately with no tapping noises or rattles and the oil pressure is excellent. 

The car will require a good tune, the suspension all looks good but I would strongly recommend a full check over before going back on the road. The brakes appear to work but again I would recommend a flush through of the clean Brake fluid, new pads and check complete system. Everything appears to work, even the A/C pump clicks in and there was gas in the system until the radiator was removed.

The transmission changes through the gears although I have only driven the car a two or three hundred yards.

The body is exceptionally Straight with superb panel fit as would be expected with an original car such as this, however there is some slight damage on the front edge of the bonnet which is shown in the pictures. The paintwork is original but is faded and thin in places where it has worn though to primer or bare metal. I was intending to repaint the car but thought it would be nice for the new owner to take a view on this.

The interior is completely original including the carpet although the drivers side footwell mat is missing. The Seats are intact with no tears or holes, these with come up well with a good quality cleaner and hide food.

This car is exceptionally original car showing only 46,000 miles which from the wear on the steering Wheel and trim I would think is genuine. The car will require a full check over and inevitably some work as a result, however this is an ideal car to be enjoyed whilst it can be improved. It makes much more sense to buy a original genuine car in good solid condition rather than a poorly restored car with shinny paint.

The car is currently Located in Southern California. I do regularly export cars to the UK and Australia so shipping can be arranged at extra cost. 

Please feel free to call should you have any questions or would like to arrange a viewing on 001 805 267 6795.

The winning bidder will be required to pay a ten percent deposit within two days and the balance within five days of the auction ending.

Good luck and happy bidding.

Jaguar reveals upcoming XE's InControl infotainment system [w/video]

Tue, 19 Aug 2014

Jaguar has been keeping busy lately, rolling out both the new Lightweight E-Type and F-Type Project 7 at Pebble Beach this past weekend. But the more important project for the British automaker is the upcoming new XE.
Coventry has been releasing a steady stream of information and teasers on its new 3 Series challenger, and has now revealed details of the new infotainment system that will debut in the XE. Called InControl, the system centers around an eight-inch touchscreen and integrates with smartphones (running both iOS and Android) through the InControl Remote and InControl Apps. The system will allow drivers to pre-set the climate control for each day of the week, lock and unlock the doors and start the engine remotely.
It'll also include an on-board wifi hotspot to connect multiple devices and a laser-based head-up display that you can scope out in the graphic above as well as the video and press release below in advance of the XE's upcoming debut in London on September 8.

Jaguar vs. Jetman: Place your bets

Mon, Dec 14 2015

As many car-versus-jet races as we've seen on video, we never seem to tire of them. This latest one, however, doesn't so much pit a car against a jet airplane, per se, but a guy in a jetpack against a supercharged Jaguar. That in and of itself might make this clip worth a watch. The guy in question is one Yves Rossy, otherwise known as the Jetman. The Swiss air force aviator developed, wears, and pilots a six-and-a-half-foot-wide fixed wing fashioned from carbon fiber and fitted with four jet turbines strapped to its underside, each good for 88 pounds of thrust. He's flown it over the Alps, across the English Channel, and above the Grand Canyon, but now he faces off against another adversary. That, of course, would be the Jaguar XJR, complete with 5.0-liter supercharged V8 good for 550 horsepower. Piloting the performance sedan is none other than Martin Brundle, a former F1 driver, Le Mans winner, and television commentator. The two line up on and above a 1.75-mile stretch of road in the deserts of Dubai for the showdown. We could tell you who won, but you'll want to watch the video above for yourself to find out first-hand. And if you want to know more about the Jetman and his amazing flying creation, watch the video below.

Brundle, who drove in F1 alongside Michael Schumacher and is now a commentator, had the new all-aluminium 550PS, 5.0-litre Supercharged V8 Jaguar XJR at his disposal while Rossy was strapped to his 2m-wide fixed wing, powered by four Jet-Cat superchargers. The race took place on a closed private road and in the skies above it, and was captured in a three-minute short film.
