This auction is for a used 1995 Supercharged Jaguar XJS (Yes, a SUPERCHARGED XJS) Convertible in black color.
So, I did what Jaguar did not do in 1995 and 1996 with the jaguar XJS models. I installed a 6-cylinder 4.0 liter Supercharged OEM Jaguar engine and matched transmission (GM 4L80E) on my XJS, as you may be aware of, all XJS were only offered with the normal aspirated engines in both the six and 12 cylinder versions. However, as you may know Aston Martin cleverly incorporated the 6-cylinder supercharged engine on its DB7 flagship from 1994 to 1998, as a result the Aston Martin DB7 model was the highest production Aston Martin vehicle ever, with more than 7,000 built before it was replaced by the DB9. As you may know, William Lyons defined the Jaguar brand with three simple words - space, pace and grace. The Jaguar XJS has all three in spades. The XJS has matured to become an elegant and graceful grand tourer. This car is a lovely place to watch the road unwind from. These are unique automobiles and are some of the most comfortable, enjoyable cars to take a road trip in that you can imagine. They are capable of chewing up enormous distances in a day, can cruise at speeds that many cars would struggle to reach, and do so in a grand manner. I bought the car with the intension of creating a super car with a unique feature that Jaguar did not offer for the XJS. The car has 86,200 miles and is in good mechanical and electrical condition for its age. The supercharge engine has around 75K miles on it. The installation of the supercharged engine was done by me as a hobby. The installation included all the electronics such as the ECU for a supercharged engine and High Performance air Filter. This XJS is powered by an Eaton-supercharged 4.0-liter DOHC inline-six, which is the first production Jaguar ever to utilize forced induction. Turning at 2.5 times engine speed, the Eaton M90's positive-displacement supercharger produces up to 10 psi of boost and creates a torque curve as flat as a Yoko Ono Christmas album-but with none of the debilitating long-term side effects. An output of 322 horsepower at 5000 rpm and a mogul-moving 378 pound-feet of torque at 3050 rpm prove my super-Jag's virility. Compared to its normally aspirated original engine stablemate (245 horses at 4700 rpm and 289 pound-feet at 4000 rpm from the same 4.0 liter basics), the tenor of this supercharged engine is more than a little nasty. Although the displacement of the two Jaguar six-cylinder engines is identical, the supercharged version receives additional internal ribbing to the cylinder head, a tougher head gasket, and a beefier exhaust manifold (all OEM). Both motors utilize cast aluminum pistons, but the supercharged powerplant chooses slightly revised camshaft profiles and a lower compression ratio (8.5:1 versus 10.0:1) to handle the boost requirements. An original air-to-water intercooler also is employed and incorporated into the intake manifold. Opening the hood for onlookers is guaranteed to incite an outburst of oohs and aahs, as even the mechanically inept can't overlook the red "XJR6 supercharged" signage or the huge silver, satin-finished cam cover. The start-up and idle temperament of the supercharged powerplant is indistinguishable from the smooth-as-Cadbury-chocolate OEM GM 4L80E Transmission The 4L80-E Transmission is able to handle vehicles up to 8000 lb (3629 kg) GVWR with up to 440 ft·lbf (597 N·m) of torque. The transmission has multiple shift modes including a full manual mode through the use +/- electric paddle installed on the shifter knob. Final drive ratios include 3.42, 3.73, and 4.10. It has been used on the following vehicles: 1991– Chevrolet C/K/Chevrolet Silverado/GMC Sierra V8 1991– Chevrolet Suburban/GMC Yukon[disambiguation needed] 1995–2003 Chevrolet Tahoe/GMC Yukon[disambiguation needed] 1995– Chevrolet Van/Chevrolet Express/GMC Savana 2002–2006 Chevrolet Avalanche V8 8.1L Hummer H1 1992–1998 Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit/Spur II, III, IV 1991–1992 Bentley Eight 1991–1997 Bentley Turbo R 1991–2002 Bentley Continental R/S/T 1999–2002 Bentley Arnage Red Label 1993–1996 Jaguar XJS 1994–1997 Jaguar XJR 1993–1997 Jaguar XJ12 / Daimler Double Six 1996–1999 Aston Martin DB7 100% Aluminum Performance Radiator with Twin Electric Fans I also installed a direct fit, aluminum radiator specifically designed for Jaguar V12 cars. All fittings (inlets, outlet, transmission cooler, mounting pegs) are in the original Jaguar factory locations. This is a true drop in replacement for the factory radiator. The aluminum radiator was made in the USA from quality materials and is 100% TIG welded with absolutely no epoxy used in any way. Installation is exactly the same as for the OEM radiator with a twin electric cooling fan system. The XJS are rare. It has been years since I have passed by one on the highway. You just don't see one everyday... In fact, you don't see them hardly at all. If you want a car that speaks to individuality, it would be difficult to do better than this 1995 Black Supercharged XJS Convertible. These are lovely cars. The interior of these cars is like nothing else on the planet. Old world charm and comfort abound, but in an intimate space, where you are surrounded by soft skins, thick carpeting, and beautiful wood-grains. The interior on this XJS is in very good condition for its age as you can see in the pictures. In the end though, I think that what makes this cars so desirable is the strong character. This results from a combination of heritage, styling, engineering, scarcity, and raw mystique. No other cars at affordable prices generate the same passion in me as the XJS does and few PRACTICAL cars top it at ANY price. Finally, as I stated before, the car has been modified from its original version (normally aspirated to supercharged) and although the car is in very good shape (and runs impressible fast!), it is a 18 year old car, look at the pictures and ask me any questions before you bid. The car is offer as is, where is and there is absolutely no warranties of any kind so please bid accordingly. The car is located and available for inspection and test driving in Calexico, CA (122 miles East of San Diego). Thanks!NOTE: I am also selling a 1995 Supercharged XJS a Blue Convertible a in separate ebay auction. |

2021 Jaguar E-Pace refreshed with latest infotainment, more powerful trim
Wed, Oct 28 2020As with other Jaguars including the F-Pace and XF, the littlest 2021 Jaguar E-Pace is getting an update. And compared with those larger models, the E-Pace's changes are far more modest and center on the new infotainment system. That's not to say there aren't visual changes. On the outside, the main change is the addition of full-LED headlights with dual strips of running lights. It also gets fender vents with the "Leaper" Jaguar cat logo. Inside, the center stack has been revised with new knobs and switches below a big 11.4-inch touchscreen that features the latest Jaguar infotainment system. The large shift lever has been swapped for a smaller shift paddle shared with the aforementioned Jaguars. A 12.3-inch screen is also available for the instrument panel. All E-Paces also now have the option of a rear-view camera mirror. Two engines are available on the new E-Pace. The P250 and P250 SE get a turbocharged, 2.0-liter four-cylinder making 246 horsepower. The newly added P300 Sport gets a higher output version making 296 horsepower. No matter the trim, the engine is paired with a nine-speed automatic and all-wheel drive. The P300 Sport augments its all-wheel drive with torque vectoring for the rear wheels. The base P250 E-Pace starts at $42,045, the P250 SE at $47,145, and the P300 Sport at $51,045. Related Video:
Jaguar Land Rover posts profitable quarter amidst big yearly losses
Mon, May 20 2019Jaguar has posted its first profit in quite some time, as the financial quarter ending on March 31 brought in a net income of $151.6 million. However, that is the light in the end of the tunnel, as full year results through March showed a $4.58 billion loss (GBP3.6 billion). The losses are again attributable to declining sales in China, with a whiff of the still-lingering Brexit process. While JLR's annual U.S. sales were up 8.1 percent, and U.K. sales improved by 8.4%, overall sales came down 5.8% to 578,915 vehicles. For April, Chinese sales nearly halved as they dropped by 46 percent. Earlier this year, JLR's woes caused its owner Tata Motors to post the biggest ever quarterly loss in Indian corporate history, at nearly $4 billion. JLR's CEO Ralf Speth stated that the company is "reducing complexity" and transforming its business by cost savings and cash flow improvements, citing the fourth-quarter profits as an example of the ongoing turnaround. Speth said JLR has already managed to deliver $1.59 billion (GBP1.25 billion) of efficiencies and savings. JLR says its turnaround program, dubbed Charge, will drive it to at least $3.18 billion (GBP2.5 billion) of investment, working capital and profit improvements by March 2020, and that it currently has $4.84 billion (GBP3.8 billion) of cash. Speth continued that JLR will "go forward as a transformed company that's leaner and fitter," and that the sustained investment in new products and technologies will drive future demand. There has been earlier speculation of Tata Motors selling JLR to the PSA Group, but as Autocar reports, Tata's financial chief again refuted these rumors. JLR also announced today that its CFO of 11 years, Ken Gregor is stepping down after 22 years with the company, and that he will be succeeded by JLR's Chief Transformation Officer, Adrian Mardell.
Jaguar XJ electric sedan debut pushed to late 2021
Wed, Jul 15 2020Jaguar's been testing prototypes of the coming all-electric XJ sedan for a while now, an example we saw earlier this year testing in the cold having reached an advanced stage. The plan had been to launch the battery-powered flagship fastback this year, with sales to commence early 2021. A report in The Sunday Times says that plan has changed, Jaguar pushing the XJ back to the third quarter of next year while the automaker focuses on its finances and its most profitable models. The site FormaCar reports, "The presentation date on the official website now reads, 'October 2021,'" but we haven't found that XJ-specific page. In response to questions about the Jaguar canceling the XJ, a spokesperson responded, "Our engineers continue to work on the next-generation all-electric Jaguar XJ. We remain committed to our long-term strategy and our product portfolio remains the same, but the unprecedented situation will inevitably have an impact on our immediate plans." The Jaguar Land Rover group, coming off a string of deep losses during 2018 and 2019, was working through a cost-cutting and turnaround plan when Covid-19 hammered the global economy. The whispered concern among outsiders is that Jaguar will drop the XJ entirely, but that doesn't appear to be the case for now. The automaker cut thousand of jobs while investing more than a billion pounds into its Castle Bromwich factory to prepare for electric-car assembly. At the moment, Castle Bromwich normally builds the XE and XF sedans, those offerings also in flux while Jaguar reportedly considers turning one or both of them into a small hatchback or a compact plug-in hybrid sedan. We write "normally" because the factory was put on pause to deal with Covid lockdowns, and isn't scheduled to restart until August 14. And above all of this, JLR is on the hunt for a new CEO to replace Ralf Speth. We've been expecting the new sedan to open the book on mainstream luxury EVs, the same way the I-Pace did for SUVs, but it appears that won't happen. The electric XJ will come on the Modular Longitudinal Architecture, and we've understood the specs include a 90.2-kWh battery pack, the same size as the I-Pace pack. There have been rumors about a four-motor setup, but odds favor a twin-motor arrangement. The motors in the I-Pace produce 394 horsepower and 512 pound-feet of torque. For an XJ flagship, we'd expect an even more powerful option in the range.
