I bought this car in 1992 to use as a summer second car. I drove it on nice days until about 1996 when the company I worked for sent me to the east coast for " about six months". Six months turned into nearly three years of almost constant work. When I finally left them and got back to Chicago life got in the way for several more years; all the while the car was stored in a private storage facility in Chicago where it was started regularly. Then 10 years ago last month I moved it to my house/garage located right outside Chicago. It has been there ever since, raised up slightly to take the weight off the wheels and axles. It has not been started in ten years. I have been saving it as a fun car to drive again but I am moving back into the city and can no longer store it, so it has to go.

I hooked it up to my truck battery and everything works (power antenna got a little bent but works). The motor turns over with the starter but I have not tried to start it, and I will not attempt to so please don't ask.To eliminate the risk of damage I think that at the very least the gas tank and fuel injection needs to cleaned, and lubrication forced in the top end. I am selling this as a non running project vehicle with clear Illinois title in my name. Only 31,690 true miles.

I believe I am the second owner and that it has never been in the snow since new. In fact I can only remember getting caught with it in the rain twice. Very clean rust-free body. The top and interior are very nice, no tears or sun fade. It has a very nice Nardi wood steering wheel. The wheels are in great shape. Pirelli P600 tires are in great shape condition-wise and hold air well, but they are past the age of use.

The paint is original and looks good from 10 feet away. There are numerous light scratches all over the car from storage. Many could be removed or minimized by a good buffing, but some will remain. The chrome has some light pitting, especially the center of the front bumper and grille. I counted about six very small dings around the car. Additionally, there is a small dent in the lower right front fender panel panel right behind the front wheel, and there is a crease on that side in the lower rear panel behind the rear wheel (see pic). Lastly, it looks like the driver door lower area has been repainted; I suspect to fix a door ding.

Sold as-is with absolutely no warranties or guarantees. I have done my best to accurately describe my car, Should you have any questions or need more pics feel free to ask. Please do so before bidding. If you are local I encourage you to come inspect the car in person. Cash or certified funds cleared before I release car or title. Buyer is responsible for shipping. I will do my best to assist, but you must make arrangements and payment. Thanks for looking!

Jaguar F-Type Coupe proves sexy can't be disguised

Wed, 19 Jun 2013

Jaguar's new F-Type is a pretty potent little pouncer. And while we do love a good roadster, many of us at Autoblog are perhaps more excited about the upcoming hardtop version of Jag's stylish new entry-level sports car. Why? Because even here in heavily camouflaged prototype form, the thing looks really, really good - the sleek roofline blending rather nicely into the F-Type's shapely rump, allowing for better distinction of its pronounced hips over the rear wheel wells.
Mechanically speaking, the F-Type Coupe should be identical to its droptop sibling. That means the supercharged 3.0-liter V6 and 5.0-liter V8 engine lineup should carry over unchanged, though we've heard rumors about a four-cylinder application as well. There's also talk of hotter R, R-S or R-S GT models coming down the pipeline, and based on what we've experienced in things like the XKR-S, we certainly can't deny the allure of such a model.
It's unclear exactly when Jaguar will show the production F-Type Coupe (at the Frankfurt Motor Show, perhaps?), but the car is expected to go on sale sometime in 2014. Check it out in our latest spy gallery, above.

Jaguar F-Pace SVR with 550 horsepower headlines 2019 F-Pace refresh

Thu, May 3 2018

Jaguar has introduced the lightly refreshed F-Pace for 2019. The regular models are updated with better infotainment and interior touches, but the big deal is the SVR version with its 5.0-liter V8 engine. We already saw the F-Pace SVR at the New York Auto Show, and it will now be available as a 2019 model. The supercharged V8 engine with a variable valve active exhaust system produces a whopping 550 horsepower and a touch over 501 lb-ft, hitting 60 mph in just 4.1 seconds. The SVR's top speed is 176 mph, and it's priced from $79,990. The entire gasoline-powered F-Pace lineup gets exhaust particulate filters, even the SVR. Jaguar says the ultrafine particle trapping system is regenerated every time the driver lifts his foot off the throttle. Jaguar does say the setup is market-specific. There are also larger, 21.66-gallon fuel tanks for the 250- and 300-horsepower Ingenium I4 cars, the 380-hp V6 version and the SVR, to improve range. There's now adaptive cruise with steering assist, which operates between 0 and 112 mph, and emergency braking and lane-keeping assists are standard as well as a driver condition monitoring system and a rear camera. Safety tech has also been packaged into optional safety packs, called Park Pack, Drive Pack and Driver Assist Pack; the third of these combines the earlier two and adds adaptive cruise with steering assist. The 10-inch infotainment touchscreen is standard, and Jaguar now offers new, 14-way adjustable "slimline" sports seats as an option. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

2013 Jaguar XF 3.0 Supercharged

Mon, 08 Jul 2013

Generally speaking, I don't get too upset about the growing need to replace displacement in modern cars. Sure, there are exceptions (don't you touch my 6.2-liter AMG V8), but honestly, the industry's new forced induction powertrains are all lovely, and their gains in fuel economy - when they actually make good on them - can make up for the ever-so-slight losses in performance or driving character.
But I'm having a hard time keeping my chin up with this Jaguar XF. For the 2013 model year, Jaguar has killed off the naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8 and fitted a supercharged 3.0-liter V6 with an eight-speed automatic in its place (and even offers a turbocharged four-cylinder engine below that). That all sounds perfectly well and good, but a week behind the wheel of this British Racing Green sedan just left me missing that V8. And then some.
