This XJ grew in most dimensions including a 25% bigger trunk, and it is longer, wider and taller than its predecessor, yet still looks as graceful as ever.
This superb two-California-owners from new 2004 Jaguar XJ8 is offered with the highly desirable Vanden Plas option. It was purchased in 2008 by the 2nd owner as a Certified Pre-Owned car from the SoCal dealer. In the very sedate colour combination of black with fine black leather interior with wood veneer accents, this car has covered only 75,500 miles from new.
Paint finish is excellent throughout, and shows no sign of damage or accident repair, consistent with the Carfax report. Brightwork and glass are excellent, as are the wheels, shod with good tires – not new, but plenty of tread remaining. The interior surfaces are all excellent, also. The driver’s seat shows no wear at all. The wood is excellent, as are the carpets, dash, etc.
The car drives exceptionally well, with no known issues in the steering, brakes, or suspension. The Jag's 32-valve all-aluminum 4.2-liter V-8 produces 294 horses with 303 lb.-ft. of torque feels tight and has great power. The 6-speed automatic transmission shifts perfectly.
All electrical systems on the car work perfectly, including trunk mounted CD Changer, and DVD system mounted in the headrests with controls in the rear armrest, and heated seats in the front and rear. The car is offered with a clean, clear CA title and clean Carfax

Chinese patent filing shows what could be next Royal Limo from Jaguar
Fri, 10 May 2013Someone filed a patent application in China for the Jaguar XJ limousine seen above, but no one's sure who filed it or what the car is for. One camp thinks it's a State limo for UK royals like the Bentley State Limousine, another camp thinks it's the work of aftermarket coachbuilders.
One thing's for sure: Assuming it ever gets made, anyone who buys it wants an XJ in name only; the modifications have removed almost all of the grace of the standard sedan. Estimated to be more than three feet longer than an XJ, the stretched rear doors are backed by an even more stretched rear section that, in losing the trademark XJ C-pillar (the D-pillar on this car), adds all sorts of ungainliness to its backside. What's more, the roof rises from front to rear, we can only assume to make room for people with large hats. Or the NBA player that the Chinese call "Sweet Melon."
Head over to AutoSohu for more photos from the application, if you're sure that's what you really want.
Watch the Chevy Corvette dismiss its Euro rivals at the hands of a Brit magazine
Sat, 08 Feb 2014European auto writers, especially the British, have a bit of a reputation for favoring their own domestic cars over foreign rivals in comparison tests. Just think about how many times you've heard Jeremy Clarkson deify the latest product of UK loins while denigrating an American rival as a hopeless "Yank Tank." However, we have to tip our hats to the folks at Autocar because in its latest video comparing the 2014 Corvette Stingray to the Porsche 911, Jaguar F-Type V8 S and Audi R8, it's actually given the Vette a fair shake.
Autocar has put the Stingray through a battery of tests against what it considers to be the three best sports cars on sale in Europe today. And while the tests that it has chosen are somewhat random and subjective, it has concluded that the C7 can stand up against its rivals, even irrespective of its price. It's one thing to hear about how great the Stingray is from American writers, but it's great to know that not all Brits think we've gone crazy for calling the new Chevrolet "exquisite."
Scroll down to see how it all plays out on video.
Jos? Mourinho shares his fear in Jaguar F-Type R Coupe spot
Fri, 09 May 2014Jaguar is in the middle of an image makeover. It wants people to know that it makes more than just big, comfy luxury cars. Underneath that there is an edge. In its recent ads, the company wants to be associated with a more tailored, witty form of villainy. The next step is showing that it's also fearless.
Many Americans might not be familiar with José Mourinho, but he's one of the premier soccer, or football, coaches in the world. He's nicknamed "The Special One." Mourinho worked his way up from an assistant coach to lead small teams but eventually took over international heavyweights like Real Madrid and Chelsea.
In a new ad for the Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, Mourinho talks about what it means to be afraid. You might think such successful people overcome their fears, but successful men are driven it, he claims. But being scared doesn't make a man weak - it makes him dangerous. Scroll down to understand what Mourinho is talking about and get an earful from the wonderful exhaust of the R Coupe.
