You are bidding on a very nice example of a 1995 Jaguar XJS V-12 2+2 Convertible! This V-12 runs exceptionally well, it starts and runs very smoothly just as they are famous for. The transmission shifts crisply and smoothly also. The color is metallic Union Jack blue and it was repainted in November 2009. The interior is in good to fair condition, it is a creamy beige and it is original. It has all of the extra equipment that was standard on this model. Power windows, power top, six way power seats, both driver and passenger. Air-conditioning, electric mirrors, power disc brakes, anti-loc brakes, etc. It has an upgraded sound system with a Kenwood AM/FM radio and trunk mounted CD player. The correct and current mileage is 73,839 The speedometer was replaced in June of 2010 when the original quit working at 69,840. It was replaced with a serviceable unit that read 39,172 it now shows 43,171 that is 3,999 miles since this speedometer was put in, add that to the 69,840 off of the original speedometer and the correct total mileage of this car currently is 73,839 This car has never had any accidents or major body repairs. The original blue German cloth top was just replaced to make this car as nice as possible for the next caretaker to enjoy. Summer is around the corner and this car is ready to enjoy those top down, wind in your hair summer day's. Those are all the good points, here are the few negative points! The drivers side hydraulic cylinder for the power top has a leaky shaft seal and probably needs replacing! It, however, still works perfectly. A new one is $189.00. Somebody in the past, used to strong of a cleaner on the aluminum wheels and they have some streaks in the clear coat. Not terrible, but noticeable. There you have it! This is a nice car, I have made the reserve low, so it will sell, so bid often and bid to win it! Any questions you may have, please feel free to call me! My best number is 949-458-5810

CMC to produce limited run of Callum's Jaguar Mark 2 [w/video]
Thu, 04 Sep 2014We were a more than a little jealous when designer Ian Callum revealed his Jaguar Mark 2 restomod that he commissioned from Classic Motor Cars. It turns out that we weren't the only ones that dug it - the reaction was so great that CMC got Callum's permission to create a limited run of them for customers. Although, with prices quoted between £350,000 and £375,000 ($572,000 - $613,000), we doubt Ian needs to worry about seeing a copy of his creation pass him too soon.
"Within hours we had received calls from people all over the globe asking if they could buy one," said Peter Neumark, Chairman of CMC in the latest announcement. The reaction came as a surprise to Callum, who said he designed the car entirely to his own specifications and actually wasn't sure if people would like it.
Among Callum's many changes are new bumpers, wider front fenders with functional louvers and less chrome trim. Under the hood is a 4.3-liter six-cylinder fitted with two SU carbs putting out around 260 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque. It should be a much better driver too, with a completely re-engineered independent rear suspension, adjustable dampers at all four corners, improved brakes and a new rack and pinion steering system designed by CMC with electric assist.
Jaguar design boss admits X-Type was a mistake
Thu, 19 Sep 2013History has a way of repeating itself, especially in the auto industry. When Jaguar was owned by Ford, the British brand attempted to field a competitor for the BMW 3 Series, called the X-Type. Based on the bones of a Ford Mondeo, it aped the styling of Jaguar's flagship model, the XJ, while borrowing liberally from the Ford parts bin. That was 2001.
Now, in 2013, Jaguar is planning a new 3 Series challenger based on the platform previewed by the C-X17 Concept, while Ford is attempting to take the latest Mondeo upmarket. The moves have both brands recognizing where, why, and how the X-Type failed. "It didn't look mature or powerful or anything. It was just a car," Jaguar's current head of advanced design, Julian Thomson, told PistonHeads. Basing the X-Type on a front-drive car while giving it styling that was meant for a rear-driver lead to proportions that "were plainly wrong," Thomson told PH. Ford's European head of quality, Gunnar Herrmann, added that the X-Type was "a fake Jaguar, because every piece I touch is Ford."
For what it's worth, the X-Type's successor in the segment will sport rear-drive, with plenty of input from Ian Callum. Thomson described the new model, which would challenge the 3 Series as having, "Big wheels right to the ends of the car, low bonnet, short overhangs, very low cabins." Sounds good to us.
Never-was Jaguar C-X75 hybrid supercar driven by Autocar
Mon, 24 Jun 2013There's lucky, and then there's "I got to drive the Jaguar C-X75." The crew from Autocar is among the handful of souls who can honestly make the latter statement. Jaguar invited the publication down for a little time in both the passenger and driver seats around the automaker's proving grounds. While there's no end to the jealousy oozing from our pores, the good news is that there were a few cameras on hand to capture the experience. As you may recollect, the C-X75 Concept was a unique hybrid supercar concept built to duke it out with the likes of the Ferrari LaFerrari, Porsche 918 and the McLaren P1. The British automaker put it on track for production, but unfortunately stopped the project about six months ago.
With a twincharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine capable of revving to 10,000 rpm, the C-X75 concept yields 502 horsepower and gets partnered with four electric motors - one at each wheels. A 19kWh lithium-ion battery pack serves up 300kW of power, and combined, the motors and battery are capable of yielding an additional 194 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. Combined, the driveline is good for more than 850 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque. Said another way, the C-X75 will do the 0-60 miles per hour dance in under three seconds.
And Autocar got to drive it. You can watch the video for yourself by scrolling below.
