2003 Jaguar Xk8 Convertible on 2040-cars
Owasso, Oklahoma, United States
|
The odometer is almost to125,000 miles and I'm responsible for 95,000 of them over the last 7 years. This XK8 has consistently provided fun and reliable, transportation. As a bonus, it gets pretty decent gas mileage. In my normal drive to and from work with local errands I average a touch over 22 mpg. I've gotten as much as 29.8 on a drive to the east coast, with 25 or so easily achievable on the highway. I'm selling it because I bought a supercharged version. The 4.2 liter V8 runs great and delivers its power to the rear axle through a six speed ZF auto gearbox. This engine is an improvement over its predecessors with increased displacement, iron cylinder liners, and much improved cam chain tensioners. I have not modified the car and have kept up with maintenance over the years. I am the third owner and on my watch it has never been smoked in and has always been serviced with synthetic oil at the manufacturer's recommended interval. It doesn't need oil added between changes. To hit the high spots, I’ve replaced the covering on the A posts and header panel, had the leather touched up, replaced plugs and a couple ignition coils, replaced the valve cover gaskets, and recently replaced all of the heater and cooling hoses. Another notable item was replacement of the convertible top latch hoses a couple years ago. This car is sold as is, where is, and without any warranty expressed or implied. I will endeavor to answer any questions in a prompt and forthright manner. Bidders are encouraged to conduct their own research and enter into any transaction with due diligence. The car is listed locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early. Please - No silly offers of paying 100% through PayPal with me paying your transportation or similar scam-like ideas.

Jaguar shows the face of its upcoming XE S sports sedan
Wed, 30 Jul 2014Jaguar has a bunch of projects in the hopper, from the replacements for the XJ sedan and XK coupe/convertible to its very first crossover. But arguably the most important among them is the XE - the British automaker's upcoming new sports sedan. Coventry has given us all sorts of peeks at what to expect from the new XE, from a shadowy rendering of the front end to a photo of a camo-wrapped prototype. But this is our best look yet.
As part of an announcement of a planned audio-visual spectacle scheduled to herald the arrival of the XE, Jaguar has released the image you see above, showing the undisguised XE in apparent S specification. From what we can see, it sports a fascia that looks pretty much exactly as we'd expect, though that's no bad thing. The XE is set to introduce the new Ingenium family of 2.0-liter four-cylinder engines. Whether the XE S shown here would carry a version of that (with a potential supercharger) or transplant the 3.0-liter supercharged V6 from the F-Type S remains to be seen, but whatever's under the hood, we'd expect it to hold the top end of the XE range - at least for the car's introduction before a potential R, R-S or SVR version might come along to supplant it.
One way or another, don't be surprised if you see some BMW 3 Series sedans pacing down the street nervously for the next little while. In the meantime, you can scope out all the glorious details of Jaguar's planned collaborations with the likes of Emeli Sandé, Stella McCartney and Idris Elba as part of the FEEL XE campaign in the press release below.
Jay Leno's Garage features funnyman's 1963 Jaguar E-Type
Thu, 25 Apr 2013Jay Leno looks inward on this episode of his eponymous garage, checking out a 1963 Jaguar XKE that he bought earlier this year. It is an example of his favorite kind of car, that being original and unrestored. He bought the E-Type from its first owner, a woman who purchased it new, held on to it for 50 years and took excellent care of it. Having never been in an accident, Leno says even the paint is 85- to 90-percent original.
In the video, the XKE sits in front of two heavily modded XK120s and another '63 XKE, but Leno said all he's done - and all he plans to do - is clean it up and put on a modern set of wire wheels for safety.
He's not on any junket and there are no guests, it's just a guy talking about an object dear to his heart. If you need a refresher on the excellent genes of the new F-Type, check out the video below.
Leno and Ian Callum pilot Jaguar XK120 at 2014 Mille Miglia
Mon, 02 Jun 2014Jay Leno has been in a British mood recently with his videos highlighting the McLaren P1, 1962 Norton 650SS and Steve McQueen's 1956 Jaguar XKSS. He's keeping the streak alive this week with a look at driving a Jaguar XK120 in the 2014 Mille Miglia historic rally with Jaguar Design Director Ian Callum.
The video show off Jay Leno's Garage in top form. It's way more than just Jay driving the 1,000-mile route from Brescia, Italy, to Rome and back. He also includes interviews with Stirling Moss about winning the race back in 1955, and racer Martin Brundle about what it's like to drive a long-nose Jaguar D-Type this year.
Today, the Mille Miglia is only for historic cars, and it has a much more relaxed pace than the original all-out event. However, this isn't entirely a cruise. Leno seems scared at times talking about it because the drivers are free to ignore the speed limits and open the cars up as much as they are willing to. The roads aren't shut down for regular traffic, either, and things can be dangerous.
