ANY QUESTIONS JUST EMAIL ME: herbhrruggle@churchsociety.net . Meticulously restored without regard to expense. Over $120K spent (all documented) on top of the value of the
original car. If you are considering a restoration project of your own, please reconsider as you can buy this car
at a fraction of the price. Imagine buying a Jaguar brand new in 1969 and then put it in a time capsule. Open the
time capsule today and this is what you have. You can spend ridiculous time and money trying to duplicate this
finished vehicle or you can buy this one, complete and mint for a fraction of the cost. All numbers are correct
and verified by the supplied Heritage documentation.
Every single nut and bolt was removed, inspected, restored or replaced. All mechanicals including a major items
like a complete motor rebuild, gearbox rebuild and fresh rear end assembly. The red urethane paint in flawless,
chrome and all brightwork is impeccable. The biscuit leather interior looks amazing and fits as it should. There
is nothing to do on this car.
Everything works as you would expect on new 1969 Jaguar XKE. Driving the car is a wonderful experience. The
engine fires easily without any fuss. Running through the gears is a pleasure with smooth and solid shifts. The
engine sounds gorgeous and pulls surprisingly hard to its redline. No squeaks, no rattles, no shakes or shimmies.
The only non-stock or not period correct items are the tires and the radio.
This Jaguar needs absolutely nothing to show or drive. I encourage a thorough pre purchase inspection and will
make the car available prior to purchase.

This classic Jaguar XJ has a 720-hp ungentlemanly secret
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Forget Tawny Kitaen. If you want to make a Jaguar XJ rock, just do what this guy did: stuff a heavily modified and turbocharged General Motors V8 under the hood, and take it to the track.
The video calls this Series 1 XJ a sleeper, but with its open exhaust and obvious turbo whistle, the once-gentlemanly sedan is anything but. The owner says that the engine is GM LQ9 V8 that has been stroked to 402 cubic inches putting out around 720 horsepower with 12 pounds of boost (in standard form, this 6.0-liter V8 was used in the second-gen Cadillac Escalade). Check out the video below to see what that kind of power does for this classic Jaguar in the eighth-mile.
Jaguar Land Rover building new R&D center for hybrids, EVs, autonomous cars
Wed, 25 Sep 2013The success of Jaguar Land Rover in recent years has largely been down to a resurgent product lineup, but a recent move into the research and development will see the British-based, Indian-owned brands take the fight to its German rivals more aggressively than ever before.
JLR is investing 50 million pounds ($80,345,000, as of this writing) in a joint R&D center in central England. The move will more than triple its staff dedicated to research, from 150 to 500, with Wolfgang Epple, JLR's Director of Research and Technology telling Automotive News Europe, "In order to play among the big animals in automotive and to be anchored in the mind of customers you have to have offered something unique, to be first in market. We want to be one of the key premier automotive manufacturers."
Jaguar Land Rover's 50-million-pound contribution represents more than half of the 94-million-pound tab, on the so-called National Automotive Innovation Campus. Based at Warwick University, Tata's European Technical Center, Warwick Manufacturing Group and the Higher Education Funding Council, an agency of the British government, are all chipping in for the facility.
2013 Jaguar XF 2.0T
Fri, 10 May 2013Jaguar is moving to modernize its XF engine lineup - once the exclusive territory of V8 mills - with a range including a turbo four, a supercharged six and supercharged V8s of various potencies. Personally, I'll miss the combination of this smooth looking and driving XF sedan, and the lazy power of the naturally aspirated 5.0-liter engine, even if the super six has earned some praise in other applications.
The truth is that the four, six, eight lineup for the XF makes a lot of sense, and this 2.0T version of the sedan is far better than I expected it to be. In fact, there's a legitimate argument to be made for it as the XF that works the best for the largest group of customers. Here's why:
