Up for auction is a clean well kept 2001 Jaguar XK-8 Convertible. I looked for a year for a clean XK-8 until I found this one. It needed very little to be pristine condition. This car is a real sharp ride. It turns heads everywhere I go. It sounds even better with a custom tuned exhaust. It has many upgrades including True Asanti 22 inch three piece wheels with new tires all around ($6,500.00 alone). These wheels have very few marks on them from curb rash. I watched these daily and have always been careful when parking this ride. It has an up-graded stereo Jensen amplifier installed, LED marker Lighting and Xeon Projection head lights and Driving / Fog lights. This car has all the factory add ons such as dual heated memory power seats, pwr windows, pwr door locks, keyless entry, cruise, electric tilt steering wheel with memory, intermediate wipers, heated outside mirrors, auto rear-view mirror adjust, Navigation System, CD Player, Cassette Player, hands free phone setup, security system with dual alarms, convertible boot cover, and a new factory top installed 2 years ago. The A/C and Heating system both work as they should. Also included is K&M Cold air intake, as well as the megna flow cat-back, tuned 4 inch true duel exhaust system. The interior is flawless, no rips or tears in the leather or the wood grain panels and dash. The car has one scratch on the driver side rear quarter panel that was done in a shopping center by a shopping cart I guess. The paint on the car is under 2 years old. The car had the top end of the motor completely overhauled 15,000 miles ago, to include a new $2100 throttle body direct from jaguar. Also the transmission was rebuilt at the same time. so the drive train is seriously like new. This is one of the top 5 cleanest and sharpest XK8's around of this year make and model. This car looks, runs and drives great. 134k real miles. The car is clean inside out and ready for a new owner. I have this car listed locally for sale so I reserve the right to remove this listing from ebay at any time without notice or recourse.

Is the Jaguar XFR-S really worth $17k more than the XFR? [w/poll]
Wed, 22 Jan 2014Adding performance to a car is rarely cheap - whether you're looking to do it yourself or rely on the factory to do it for you. In the case of the new Jaguar XFR-S, the cost differential over an already-impressive (and somewhat expensive) XFR is a stout $16,800. Auto Express recently got a hold of both cars to see whether that price pays off on the track.
For that price, Jaguar gives the XFR-S an extra 40 horsepower and 41 pound-feet of torque - for a total of 550 hp and 502 lb-ft - to go with a stiffer suspension, beefed-up differential and, of course, meaner styling. We don't want to ruin the results of the AE video, but right off the bat, the host says that you can feel the extra power of the XFR-S, but that it's not a "night-and-day difference."
Scroll down to see what happens when two high-powered Jags go head-to-head on a track. And then be sure to let us know whether or not you think the added money is worth it for the XFR-S in the completely informal poll below.
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.
Exploring Romania's storied Transfagarasan Highway in a Jaguar F-Type V8 S
Wed, 05 Feb 2014Top Gear is, in some ways, a victim of its own success. When it declares a road the best in the world, like it did with Romania's Transfagarasan Highway during its 14th season, you can't blame people for showing up and wanting to check it out. Of course, then the road becomes clogged with tourists and is less fun to drive.
But is it possible that there is an even better driving road in Romania? One that is higher, smoother and undiscovered by tourists - at least not yet? Henry Catchpole from Evo thinks that he may have found it while driving a Jaguar F-Type V8 S that makes a sound that evokes a World War II British fighter plane.
Scroll down to take a brief trip to Romania and bask in the wonderful roar of this topless Jaguar.
