North Woodstock, New Hampshire, United States
Thank you for viewing this lovely 1989 Jaguar XJS Convertible in Signal Red. Forgive me for my lackluster pictures, this car can surely be photographed better. I hadn't anticipate selling so if you would like to view/drive please contact me to make an appointment. My loss is your gain. Legitimate sale I am traveling away for work for several months. Currently stored in covered Garage. This XJS, originally a Florida car, has driven only 3k miles a year since new, verified by carfax. Just serviced approximately 2 weeks ago by reputable import auto shop, all receipts since my ownership included. Have driven almost 800 miles this month and it has been the ultimate grand tourer. This is a true drivers car. Owners manual included along with original green booklet and touch up paint. Original radio is also included as an aftermarket one was installed. No warning lights illuminated on panel and all lights work. Car registered and NH state inspected until November 2015. Ready to go for new driver. Exterior has had a very professionally and extremely well done re-paint In the original "Signal Red" paint, so it appears new. For even the most particular of observer, each vin tag on every panel is still visible and matching numbers. You will be hard pressed to tell that it was repainted. No rock chips or fading like others of this year. This car was originally Signal Red with Barley from the factory and still remains so. Interior Barley tan conolly leather in good original condition. Some cracks and fading on some of the door wood cappings. The drivers seat has a small rip in seam of upper part of Connolly that can be easily repaired. Temp/Oil pressure gauge intermittent from a loose connection somewhere. Does not overheat or run hot. Need to sell. Make me an offer. This is an extremely lovely driving/looking Jaguar that will only appreciate in value in addition to being a fun summer toy. Willing to meet at closest airport (MHT) Manchester, NH or possibly (BOS) Boston if you wish to drive home. |

2014 Jaguar XJR unleashed just ahead of New York show [w/video]
Tue, 26 Mar 2013Just a week after teasing us with the first image of the car, and mere hours before revealing it to the public at the New York Auto Show, Jaguar has pulled the wraps off of its 2014 XJR super sedan.
The British automaker has confirmed that the XJR will be kicking out a full 550-horsepower and 502 pound-feet of torque from its supercharged 5.0-liter V8, affording the sedan a 0-60 mile per hour sprint of 4.4 seconds and a top speed of 174 miles per hour. A ZF eight-speed automatic transmission will still allow for respectable fuel economy, as Jag estimates ratings of 15 miles per gallon city and 23 highway.
Newly tuned dampers and stiffer spring rates, along with an electronically controlled differential should ensure that the massive power of the engine isn't wasted in transition to the road. Jaguar has also tweaked steering software and hydraulics, with the goal of increased road feel, response and overall feedback. 20-inch signature wheels carry wide Pirelli rubber (265-section up front, 295 in back) to keep the XJR planted.
Jaguar Heritage Driving Experience throws you the keys to the museum
Thu, 16 Oct 2014As automotive journalists, we get to drive a lot of really cool, high-performance vehicles. It really is the single best thing about this job. However, our access to vehicles is generally limited to the newest offerings on the market. That means, much like the general public, we don't really get access to vintage iron.
Jaguar is trying to rectify that issue for journalist and enthusiast alike, with a new program called the Heritage Driving Experience. It allows British enthusiasts to pop into the brand's Warwickshire testing site, drop anywhere from 100 to 300 pounds ($160 to $480) and go for a spin in some of the brand's most legendary offerings. That includes the more typical classics, like the Mark 2 saloon and the E-Type sports car, but you can also pay for access to stunners like the XK150, XKSS and the race-spec D-Type. In addition to the classics, most of the tests include time in their modern successors. So an hour with the Mark II can be split with time in an XFR-S, while the E-Type is complemented by its spiritual successor, the F-Type.
Most of the events are limited to 30 or 60-minute sessions, although the brand does offer a half-day and full-day event. The former, the Jaguar Le Mans Experience, includes time in the C-Type, D-Type, XKSS and F-Type R. The full-day Grace and Pace Pack, meanwhile, gives you access to nine vehicles, covering a huge gamut. That means time in the C-, D- and E-Type, XK150, Mark II, XKR-S GT and F-Type R, among others. Not surprisingly, prices aren't listed for the half- and full-day pack. Much like Jag's finest cars, if you have to ask, you probably can't afford them.
2014 Jaguar F-Type
Wed, 17 Apr 2013Stepping Into The Lion's Den With A Big-Hearted Cat
If you're like me - and our demographics suggests you are - you've probably never seen a new Jaguar sportscar at your local showroom. I'm 36, and it hasn't happened in my lifetime... and not by a little bit. Oh, there have been a string of XK coupes and convertibles, and as of late, there have even been some genuine high-performance specials - namely the R, R-S and R-S GT models - but their basis has always been the 2+2 grand tourer shell, not a lighter and smaller footprint with more intrinsic sporting intent. The truth is that it's been a half-century since Jaguar introduced a proper new sportscar. Today, most people know the brand strictly as a purveyor of wood- and hide-lined luxury sedans.
In fact, if you're not an enthusiast with some appreciation for the marque's history, it's a bit odd to hear Jaguar executives proclaim that they are a sportscar company and always have been. By their reckoning, the 2014 F-Type seen here is in fact a return to form, a Rip Van Winkled brand pillar reanimated and reimagined to take center stage. It's a sentiment that must be particularly odd for car shoppers in developing markets like China, where Jaguar hasn't even been selling cars for very long. Yet because the original 1961 E-Type is perhaps the most gorgeous car ever to lay ply on the world's roads, we're prepared to cut them some slack.
