 Hello All I'm Frank I guess you can call me a Jaguar enthusiast I really enjoy driving and Refurbishing  these timeless works of beauty it's my pleasure and my hobby. I'm retired and this is something I really enjoy doing, Believe me it's not for the money.

I have a 1988 jaguar xj6 Vanden Plas this was the first year Jaguar changed there body style and was there top of the line for that year. I have put this car in tip top shape everything works as it should and is a pleasure to drive she's very sound. I have had much  work put into to this car so the next owner can drive and enjoy this is what was worked on correctly NO SHORT CUTS. All new brakes and calipers, new battery, All new wires, plugs , roder and cap replaced  cylinder head and gasket . I have replaced the radio and power antenna. The front seats bottom part has a split seam and can be replaced for not very much the back seats are in excellent condition. The engine is very sound as is the transmission . There is one small issue I felt was not worth fixing that is first thing in the morning the steering is a little tight for exactly 2min I have timed it and because I did the work in the winter months the air conditioner was over looked it works fine but has to be changed over to the new Freon. I will credit the buyer to have the work finished.

AND THATS ALL FOLKS I'M VERY HONEST AND WOULD NOT PUT OUT A CAR I WOUL'D DRIVE MYSELF

I HAVE BEEN USEING THIS CAR EVERY DAY AND SHE'S FINE.....ANY OTHER QUESTIONS E MAIL ME OR CALL ME 516 683 8053 THIS CAR IS WORTH MORE THAN I'm ASKING  I'm LOOKING FOR AN XJS  WILL TRADE SO MAKE ME A REASONABLE OFFER AND LETS MAKE A DEAL.....

This Jaguar E-Type is an even longer-legged feline

Tue, 12 Nov 2013

Paul Branstad loves the shape and purity of the Series 1 Jaguar E-Type, produced from 1961 to 1968, but appreciates the longer length of the Series 3 V12 model, which affords occupants a more comfortable space in which to enjoy long trips. So when Branstad brought his damaged left-hand-drive 1968 roadster from its home in the US to Classic Motor Cars in the UK for a restoration, he had a special request: restore his car, but make it a bit longer.
"This is something that we have never done before. Our client wanted the interior leg room of a Series 3 V12 E-Type but the aesthetics of a Series 1 car," says Nick Goldthorp, managing director of CMC.
For the restoration, CMC added 4.5 inches of length to the floor pan of Branstad's E-Type to create the extra legroom. Goldthorp relates, "The V12 was actually nine inches longer than a Series 1 but a lot of the additional room was behind the seats as storage and was not required on our project." That's because CMC also built a trailer out of two E-Type rear ends that attaches to a custom-made removable tow hitch.

Jaguar Land Rover and Chery investing in Chinese plant

Sat, 24 Nov 2012

While the European auto market for Jaguar and Land Rover is waning, Chinese car buyers can't get enough of the British marques. To meet that demand, Tata Motors, parent company of Jag and Land Rover, is partnering with Chinese automaker Chery Automobile Co.
The two announced plans to invest $1.75 billion to build a new plant and create a new, China-focused brand. 2014 is the target for completion of the factory. Jaguars and Land Rovers built at the facility will be the first ever produced outside the UK according to the Associated Press. The JV will be called Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Company Ltd.
The announcement comes less than a month after JLR announced it would open a design studio in China. It's not clear from the reports whether the two announcements are part of the same JV or two separate plans.
