2011 Jaguar XK-R
The old Jaguar XK often received a bad rap as the old man’s sports car, but the redesigned XK, with added chrome grills and hood louvres gives the new car a far more sinister look. The XK coupe now sports a perfectly executed rear with more Italian design cues than a reworked E-type.
Inside the 2011 XKR the changes are largely limited to the removal of the J-gate shifter in favour of the hockey-puck style “JaguarDrive selector,” improved leather trim and the general feel of British style, perfectly executed.
New for the 2010 model is the 5.0 liter V8, throwing out a stomping 510bhp and 461lb-ft of torque which propels the car to 60mph from rest in 4.6 seconds. But it’s the rolling acceleration that feels so fun. Rather than a traffic light drag race, the car is infinitely more pleasing to stomp on and blow away your competition when they aren’t expecting it. The joy of mid range torque! And around town will still return 15+ mpg.
The car offered is of 2011 vintage, and has covered just about 10,000 miles from new. In a very unusual and striking “Salsa” red colour, the sinister look of the Jag has been enhanced with black coated wheels, badges and grills. The car looks superb! Paintwork is about as-new, 20” option wheels are scuff free and shod with good tires with plenty of tread remaining. Behind the wheels are red painted brake calipers.
The caramel interior is also about as near perfect as you can get. Highlighted with charcoal stitching, and burr walnut, the interior feels like a pleasing place to be. Light and airy, with a luxurious feel.
This one local California owner car feels like new. Barely broken in with the mileage, it is presented in excellent condition throughout. Recently serviced to ready the car for sale, is testament to the car taken in maintaining and storing it. The reason for sale: a new addition to a growing family is on the way.
The engine is responsive, shifting perfectly through the 6-speed automatic transmission with steering wheel mounted paddle shifter. Brakes, suspension and steering all feel as taut as new, and all electrical systems work perfectly. The car is equipped with heated and cooled soft grain leather seats, a “smart key” for access and starting the car, fabulous B&W stereo system, iPod connectivity, bluetooth, Sirius, Bi-Xenon headlights and touchscreen Navigation. Total original cost: over $102,000.
The car is offered with all books and manuals, keys and service records, with a clean, clear title.

Jaguar crossover won't be based on Evoque or have off-road chops
Wed, 21 Aug 2013Jaguar's long-rumored crossover won't be built on the same platform as the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, says the Australian site Car Advice. The future of the new CUV remains uncertain, but if Jaguar does dip its toes into the SUV/crossover pool, though, the new vehicle will likely be a car-based soft roader, lacking (or perhaps more appropriately, not needing) the off-road-engineered chops inherent in Land Rover's small CUV platform.
Jaguar product planner Steven De Ploey explained to Car Advice, "There's many groups around the world [platform sharing] - obviously Volkswagen Group is doing it all the time - but I think we have to be careful. He added, "Jaguar is something quite different... It's about capability, but very much on-road focused capability." That seems to gel with our suspicions that the XQ, as it's expected to be called, will share its platform with an upcoming small Jaguar sedan, the oft-rumored X-Type successor.
Still, we'd recommend taking any mention of a Jaguar crossover with a grain of salt. Based on many of the (quite compelling) statements made by De Ploey against a Jag crossover and previous statements made by Jag's design boss, Ian Callum, the case against a leaper-bearing crossover seems strong. If a high-rider were to arrive from Jaguar, though, the article insinuates that it'd be more in line with the BMW X6 or upcoming X4 - sort of a coupe-based crossover. Like we said, grain of salt. If a Jag crossover is going to arrive soon, the upcoming Frankfurt Motor Show is the most likely locale for its debut. We'll find out in a few weeks.
2015 Jaguar F-Type R Coupe [w/video]
Thu, 16 Jan 2014This is it. This is the nasty cat we've been hankering for most. Whereas the Jaguar F-Type convertible remains the company's purest expression of lifestyle fun and expendable income, it's this coupe version that originally stole our eyeballs and never gave them back when it debuted as the C-X16 Concept way back at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show. And now we've had an early turn at driving the most potent variant, the Jaguar F-Type R Coupe.
This F-Type Coupe design is so utterly visually stunning that, even if something dynamically or functionally was not really to our liking, we would still want to have the wherewithal to buy one and garage it, if only to stare at it - not unlike our reaction to the 2007-2009 Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione coupe, then. Whether such beauty needs to be in the form of this $99,000 mondo 542-horsepower R version or the more attainable six-cylinder trim is an open question.
In case you need reminding, that's 542 horses maxing out at 6,500 rpm, along with 502 pound-feet of torque on tap between 2,500 and 5,500 revs. There is no indicator yet as to whether Jaguar will eventually come out with an R version beyond the 488-hp V8 S for the convertible, either, so this may well be our only shot at such hair-brained antics in this small Jag. Small and not quite light, we should add - despite its all-aluminum goodness - the F Coupe rings in at 3,638 pounds. That sort of heft is one thing on the street, but it's quite another on a twisty roadcourse, and we aimed to figure out if the coupe's 80-percent greater stiffness versus the open F-Type (along with its higher attendant spring rates) were enough to make a big difference.
Jaguar has something special planned for Goodwood
Mon, 23 Jun 2014It's been barely a week since JLR announced its new Special Operations division, dedicated to creating limited-run halo cars and custom creations for both the Jaguar and Land Rover brands. Now the British automaker has confirmed the debut of the division's first project.
We don't know what it is, exactly, that Jaguar will be bringing to the Goodwood Festival of Speed later this week, but we bet it'll be exciting. If we were the betting kind, we'd put our money on some kind of hot-rod F-Type, but we'll just have to wait and see.
Alongside whatever JLR Special Operations has got cooking, Coventry will also be bringing the new F-Type R Coupe and XFR-S Sportbrake to run up the hill alongside a whole slew of classic and racing Jaguars, including a pair of D-Types, a Group 44 E-Type, a Group A XJS and the reunion of XJR-9 and Andy Wallace that last saw each other on the top step of the podium at Le Mans in 1988.
