Hello, What you are looking at here today is the last of the Jaguar XJSs. It is a 1996, with the really dependable 4.0 liter 6 cyl, fuel injected engine. I believe, the best engine Jaguar ever built. This is and has been a southern car, from Georgia. It has never seen salt. The body is beautiful and dent free. I won't bore you with a blog about how these last XJSs are really starting to be sought after all over the World. I'm sure you read the car magazines like I do. But I will say, "I know these cars" and this is a good one. Firstly, the AC is ice cold. I just spent $1200 having blower fan replaced and expansion valve plus charging. The kick downs work and the face level vents operate exactly as they should. The Top works flawlessly and all windows go up and down as they should. Everything works on this car and it drives great. I can't see it needs anything.....I just have about 30 cars and am really tight for space. We have a large handicap van factory in Atlanta area and my sons pretty much run the day to day so Dad is left free to play at his 45 year British car addiction. (I'm on a 12 step program, but it is not working). I bought this car last Feb from our local Lexus dealership where they are so stupid that they told me the top didn't work. They didn't know you had to pull up the emergency brake lever first...so they wholesaled it to me..The car also had a bad exhaust leak. (The joiner box for the 2 down pipes was broken) We replaced the exhaust header and the car is pretty much perfect. Even the little plastic levers on the seat back releases are still there. Anyway, it is a no excuse car. Body is beautiful, it has been repainted once (as British paint doesn't fare too well in Atlanta heat), but nice job. Interior is really nice and soft. Tires, brakes, suspension all is fine and ready to drive car home to anywhere. I usually do an auction format but I will not waste your or my time...You might be able to find and XJS alittle cheaper, but they all have the same issues that this one has had sorted out....,..so $11,000 buys it. I have 2 other XJSs I would rather sell than this one but am buried in both of them, so.... Please look at my feedback. You will see I am a serious car guy and will tell you the truth about my cars. I appreciate your looking and will answer any questions right away.. Bob

Jaguar Land Rover in talks for Southern US factory
Mon, 20 Oct 2014Jaguar Land Rover is getting serious about global expansion, and that means it can't only build its vehicles in the UK anymore. The British automaker is cutting the ribbon at its new plant in China tomorrow, marking the opening of its first factory outside the UK. In 2016, it will open another factory in Brazil. But the latest intel has it that JLR is looking into a US factory, as well.
The report, which comes to us from the Sunday Times by way of Automotive News Europe, indicates that the company is evaluating locations for a North American factory, with options centering around Southern right-to-work states like South Carolina, where BMW operates its plant in Spartanburg and a wide array of other automotive operations are based as well. The JLR plant would reportedly ramp up to a capacity of 200,000 units per year.
In related news, while that new plant JLR is inaugurating in Changshu, China, is initially slated to produce the Range Rover Evoque, it is also expected to start building the new Discovery Sport as well - just like the Halewood plant in the UK that has handled Evoque assembly from the start and which just built its first Discovery Sport, as well.
Jaguar F-Type Project 7 arrives Stateside for $135k*
Thu, 14 Aug 2014There are a great many things we love about the Jaguar F-Type, but one of them is that, whatever price point you're looking at, there's an F-Type for you. (Well, not any price point... this is a Jag we're talking about, but pricing varies greatly.) Got $65k to spend? That'll get you into a base F-Type V6 coupe, and you'll likely be happy for it. Eighty grand will get you into an F-Type V6 S, $90k into a V8 S roadster, and a cool hundred grand will get you the top-of-the-line F-Type R coupe. But what if you want to spend more than that? What if you've got more like $165,000 in your pocket and it's burning a hole when it should be burning rubber?
Well we've got good news for you, friend, because that's exactly how much the exclusive F-Type Project 7 will set you back. Making its US debut during Monterey car week, Jaguar has announced that the most exclusive version of its two-seat sports car - revealed in production spec just recently at the Goodwood Festival of Speed - will cost $165k in the US (plus the standard $925 delivery charge). That's roughly the price of an F-Type R and a base F-Type V6.
For all that scratch, you get an open-top roadster with 575 horsepower on tap - more than any production road car Jaguar has ever made before, and that includes the XJ220 and ultra-rare XJR-15 supercars. The most potent version yet of Jaguar's ubiquitous and long-serving 5.0-liter supercharged V8 is enough to send Project 7 to 60 in 3.8 seconds and on to an electronically limited top speed of 186 miles per hour.
Jaguar C-X17 rides high into Frankfurt
Tue, 10 Sep 2013After enviously watching its competitors rake in piles of crossover-shaped dollars for years, Jaguar is poised to get into the game with a production model based on this C-X17 concept. While the British brand hasn't officially confirmed it will sell a utility vehicle - indeed, brand fans and industry watchers have wondered whether the Leaping Cat even need to get into the game considering its corporate cousins at Land Rover - we would be dumbfounded if it didn't happen in short order.
We've always been concerned that Jaguar's styling language wouldn't translate well to a high-riding shape, but here at its Frankfurt Motor Show debut, the C-X17 comes off as quite handsome (if predictable) in the metal. The same couldn't always be said of Jag's styling DNA, but newer models beginning with the XF and the XJ have introduced design elements like a larger, more vertical grille that suit the C-X17's form factor exceedingly well. Even the rear end successfully borrows its taillamp design from the glorious new F-Type Roadster.
Underneath the concept's two-box shape is a new aluminum unibody that Jag says it is poised to employ on its next-generation models, including the long-expected midsize sedan coming to North America in 2016. Jaguar has long been a leader in aluminum chassis development even as it has struggled to take weight out of some of its vehicles (the F-Type, for instance, isn't exactly lightweight). Thus far, Jaguar isn't talking powertrains other than to say it will employ a new generation of gas and diesel engines.
