For sale is my beautiful 1994 Jaguar XJS 2+2 convertible. I am selling this car due to my impending move to Rhode Island, where the climate isn't quite convertible friendly and I won't have a garage.  While not a competitive show car, it is definitely a head-turning daily driver. The straight-6 motor does not leak oil, nor does it blow smoke -- common faults familiar to Jaguar enthusiasts.  It also maintains idle at 650rpm.

The interior and convertible top were replaced by the previous owner (I bought this car in the Fall of 2011) prior to my purchase.  All of the hoses in the engine bay were also replaced by the previous owner. The car has been covered and garaged since I purchased it, and has only been out in the rain on two occasions.

Goods:

-- Power windows, seats, and locks still function properly, as does the automatic antenna.  Power side-view mirrors and seat heaters still work.  You'll note from the pictures that the car comes with a full-size spare tire on a matching wheel.  Tires aren't new, but have lots of tread left on them.  The 4.0L straight-6 still has plenty of power and is a pleasure to drive on highways and curvy roads alike.  Battery is < 1yr old.

Others:

-- Car could use new motor mounts (relatively cheap fix...at approximately $65).  The automatic convertible top still works, but the pump motor has a leak that I've been unable to stop.  A replacement motor costs about $350, and takes about 30min to swap out.  The car could probably also use some new front brakes.  Air conditioner could use a refill, as it doesn't cope well with especially hot days.  Cruise control does not work, and I have never bothered to investigate why.

Extras:

-- Car comes with an all-weather cover if you don’t have a garage or haven’t carved out the space yet for a weekend driver in your garage.  Has a custom cover for the convertible top for those days when you’re going to have to top down all day.  Previous owner mistook blown fuse for a faulty radio, and purchased a second OEM Jaguar-correct radio and corresponding security pin…so in the event that the original radio ever goes bad you’ll have a second one ready to install.

Jaguar's XF diesel isn't just fuel efficient, it's the cheapest XF available

Tue, Sep 6 2016

Jaguar announced the 2017 Jaguar XF will now offer the 2.0-liter turbocharged diesel the company introduced on the XE. In addition to returning an impressive 42 miles per gallon on the highway and 31 in the city, the diesel is the cheapest XF available at $48,445. This means that picking the oil-burner will save you $3,040 over the cheapest gas V6 version, which only manages 29 mpg on the highway and 20 in the city. With 180 horsepower, the diesel is significantly down on power compared with the base V6 model. As a result, the diesel moves slower. Jaguar estimates the base V6 is good for a 5.2-second 0-60 time and the diesel should be able to do the same in 8 seconds. However, that's the only real downside. Even with the slower acceleration times, the diesel still has a very usable 317 lb-ft of torque available from 1,750-2,500 rpm. Based on our test drive of a diesel-equipped XE, the engine also breaks the old diesel stereotypes. It's both quite smooth and responsive. Unless you seriously need that straight-line performance, the Jaguar XF diesel arguably makes the most sense. It provides significant price savings and better fuel economy. The diesel XF also joins the XE and F-Pace diesels, leaving just the XJ and F-Type as the only Jaguars without compression-ignition engines. The British automaker is planning to remedy that, as a Jaguar Land Rover executive said the company plans to also add a diesel XJ variant in the US, even in the wake of the VW diesel scandal.

Jaguar Land Rover says key models in short supply, some have six-month wait lists

Fri, 08 Aug 2014

Care for a bit more proof that the Jaguar Land Rover portfolio of vehicles is the best it's ever been? Well, the Indian-owned pair of brands saw a record year in 2013, while 2014 has seen a 14-percent increase in sales. The crazy thing is, though, is that figure could be even higher, provided the company had the production capacity.
JLR is running a six-month waiting list on two of its most popular models, the Range Rover Sport (above) and Range Rover. According to Mark White, the company's chief technologist for body engineering, the blame can be placed on the paint shop at the company's Solihull factory, in the UK.
"We will probably max out the paint shop before we max out the body shop. Putting the second body shop in has given us the flexibility to ebb and flow the different models that go through there and meet the capacity demands we've got," White told Automotive News. "However, you always hit a bottleneck somewhere. And the paint shop is probably going to be the next biggest obstacle."

Watch a Jaguar tow a man on skis to 117 mph

Tue, Oct 3 2017

Jaguar wagons are fun. Skiing is fun. Combine the two, and you get the above, which looks extra fun. Apparently there is a Guinness world record for top speed skiing while being towed by a vehicle. According to the video, that record was just under 70 mph. While we're not experts on high-speed skiing, that actually seems a little low, and so did Jaguar and Olympic skier Graham Bell. So Jaguar and Bell went to an undisclosed location in the Arctic Circle to break the record. Jaguar brought along an XF S Sportbrake, a 380-horsepower wagon that is now available in America (yay!). They hooked up a line to the back, Bell suited up, held on, and rode along to a final speed of about 117 mph, a full 47 mph faster than the last record. Frankly, we found this to be a pretty cool activity (no pun intended). We think maybe it should be considered for a new Olympic sport. Sure would be better than ice dancing. It could look something like the Bonneville Speed Week, with a big multi-mile stretch of snow to be towed along. Think about it, International Olympic Committee, you still have time before the 2018 Winter Olympics. Related Video: Image Credit: Jaguar Jaguar Wagon Luxury Videos jaguar xf sportbrake skiing
