1994 Jaguar Xjs With 72,000 Miles, 6 Cylinder, Metallic Green, Excellent Shape on 2040-cars
Yarmouth Port, Massachusetts, United States
This 1994 XJS coupe is in very good condition. Before I bought it, it had been repainted in the original metallic green (not British racing green) which I believe is called Brooklands green. It has the European style headlights and the optional headlight washers. There is a small area on the "fin" (connecting area) that runs from the roof to the trunk lid on the passengers side (this is inside that area - cannot be seen when looking at the car from the side - you need to look at that area from the rear of the trunk facing the rear window) where the clear coat has peeled. This area is approximately 5 inches long by 1/2 inch to 1 1/2 inches in height in the shape of a capital "M". It is relatively inconspicuous. The tires are Michelin P235/60 R15's with a lot of tread left; however there are cracks in the rubber - I was losing air in two of them so I had 4 Coker tubes installed - the problem was solved. I didn't want to buy new tires as the ones on the car have lots of tread. The car runs fine - I drive it on the highway at 65 mph. If it sits in the garage for several weeks without being run, I need to trickle charge the battery. There seems to be a small electrical drain somewhere. I did have my mechanic check this out, but he couldn't find anything specific. When I drive the car regularly, there is no problem with this. The interior of the car is in very good shape - the rear seat is in excellent shape (as no one can fit back there in my opinion). Headliner is fine. Wood panels on doors have cracks - none on the console or elsewhere. Dash is not cracked. I have owned the car for over two years. It is registered, insured, and has a current inspection sticker.

Jaguar's Callum refutes two XJ bodystyle rumor
Wed, 01 May 2013Not long ago, we relayed word from Edmunds that Jaguar was planning to split its next-generation XJ sedan into two bodystyles - one model that continued the ambitious design approach fostered with the current X351-based model, and another, more upright model to better appeal to China's conservative design sensibilities.
We expressed some cynicism in the idea, noting that such a strategy "might catch more profits for the marque, but it might also represent a setback to design head Ian Callum's vision for a thoroughly modern Jaguar portfolio." Callum has been quite insistent in his belief that Jag needs to be a forward-thinking brand in terms of design, and the two-model strategy seemed to conflict with that idea. We tried to get some comment from Callum at that time, but were unable to reach him.
As it turns out, our cynicism was well-placed. Autocar says that while the next XJ will continue to have two wheelbases, Callum has denied the two-model talk, saying flatly: "I can't see us doing two bodystyles. The cost would be enormous and the message inconsistent. You have to believe in what you produce and to do two bodystyles would undermine that."
Jaguar's first-ever Super Bowl ad to feature F-Type Coupe
Sun, 10 Nov 2013Patrons of this year's Los Angeles Auto Show will be able to get their first glimpse at the new Jaguar F-Type Coupe, but the new hardtop sports car will be shown off to an even greater audience in early February. No, we aren't talking about the Chicago Auto Show - we're referring to the Super Bowl. Jaguar will debut its first-ever Super Bowl ad during the second half of the big game on February 2, 2014, and the sleek new F-Type Coupe will be the star.
According to Jaguar, the ad campaign will pose the question, "Have you ever noticed how in Hollywood movies, all the villains are played by Brits?" And for all you social media mavens out there, Jaguar will launch a specific hashtag to go with this marketing: #GoodToBeBad.
British director Tom Hooper is responsible for the ad, which is being filmed in London. Americans will get their first glimpse at the campaign this weekend in the first spot, called Disruptor, but the big F-Type Coupe spot will not air until Super Bowl XLVIII in February.
Jaguar-based Eagle E-Type Low Drag GT makes its bid for most beautiful car ever with EVO
Fri, 28 Feb 2014The Jaguar E-Type is one of the icons of automotive design, and British company Eagle has made a business out of restoring, upgrading and building their bespoke versions for the last 30 years. It does for the E-Type what Singer does for the Porsche 911 - takes an already great classic car and updates its mechanicals for the modern age.
The firm's latest creation, the Low Drag GT, might be its greatest ever, at least according to editor Henry Catchpole in Evo magazine's latest video. The car takes its inspiration from a trio of low-drag E-Type coupes built in the 1960s, but thoroughly modernizes the concept. The engine is based on Jag's inline-six, but made from aluminum and bored out to 4.7 liters to produce 346 horsepower and 360 pound-feet of torque. Catchpole says it's enough to propel it to 60 miles per hour in about 4.5 seconds. The body, transmission and differential are all also made from aluminum to cut the weight to 2,288 pounds, and modern upgrades include Ohlins dampers, AP Racing brakes and even extras like concealed GPS navigation and an Alcantara headliner. There's more head- and legroom than the originals, too.
Each car is built bespoke for each buyer, so prices vary, but Catchpole says the one he is in would run about half the cost of a LaFerrari - around $700,000.
