Wheelbase: 105” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pFnKnL-hvg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tL3jUYroDg&feature=youtu.be THE MODEL...When the new Jaguar E-type was first shown at the Geneva Auto Show in 1961, it was all the rage. With styling and performance taken directly from the legendary D-type, it set the mark for what a sports car should be. In its initial offering two body styles were marketed, a smart little roadster, or drop-head coupe, and a fixed head coupe, perfect for a happy couple or for a driver and navigator on a road-rally course. On a program of constant improvements, Jaguar introduced a number of upgrades to the E-type, such as the introduction of the 4.2 Liter engine as well as vast improvements for creature comforts. One complaint was that neither the roadster nor the fixed head coupe had much room for carrying anything extra like a suitcase, and if a third person wanted to join the party, there just wasn’t room. That was resolved in 1966 when the 2+2 coupe was unveiled. Featuring a body shell that was nine inches longer than the originals, there was now room for two more passengers, although a bit cramped, and more room for luggage or parcels accessible by a side-hinged rear door. This Particular CAR… This exquisite example of the 2+2 coupe captures all the beauty and speed of the original E-type concept, but with a bit of comfort and practicality added in. And face it, who else ever produced a “practical” sports car? I acquired this 2+2 from the previous owner who had the car in his possession for nearly 30 years, but due to physical limitations could only admire its beauty. Today its odometer is showing just under 90,500 miles, believed to be from new. This is the type of Jaguar collectors line-up and wait for. Treated to a re-spray in its original Regency Red, there were no issues with the body in ways of damage or rust, and it remains unmolested with modifications or alterations. When the gas tank trim was removed to extract the original fuel tank, the paint under the tank and surrounding areas was still show room fresh. NO RUST! With soft black leather on the bucket seats, which appears to be original, all of the stitching is in order, the dashboard is fitted with all the original instruments and best of all, this is an air-conditioned 2+2. One upgrade is the addition of a JVC stereo system which appears to have been professionally installed. Mechanically, this car is just simply beautiful. Recently treated to nearly $30,000 worth of maintenance work making it ready for the road, all of the brake parts were sent out and brass lined, both of the SU carburetors were completely gone through plated and had ethanol friendly gaskets installed, and the engine was highly detailed making this gem ready for the show field or to hit the road. The exhaust is stainless steel front to back. The fuel tank is new. There are receipts for all of the work. Since that work was completed, about 400 test miles have been put on the car during which no concerns about its performance or issues were reported. The transmission is tight and goes through the gears with ease. During the maintenance work, all engine numbers were inspected and found to be 100% matching. All of the glass appears to be original to the car and is clear. Chrome and bright work, including the wire wheels, look fresh and sparkle in the daylight. This 2+2 is as close to original as one could hope for and fitted out just as you would want to order one today. You can search and search and to find one as original and unmolested as this will be very difficult. About the Owner .... I have owned many cars over the years (and still do). As I continue to change my taste I have changed the cars in the collection. I own my own restoration shop, anything that I have done to the car or had done is top notch. My business is not sell cars for a living, I build cars to order for discriminating clientele. The car is in my name. The reason that I state this information is that I don't need to sell the car, nor was the car just thrown together to sell. This is not meant to be negative, I just don't want to waste anyone's time with low ball offers or the like. If you want to discuss the car, or send someone to look at the car, that is perfectly fine. I can be reached at 832 428 4281. Please ask for Jeff.

Jaguar Vision Gran Turismo SV ups the performance of the virtual sports car
Wed, Dec 16 2020Last year, Jaguar created its very first concept car made specifically for the Gran Turismo video game series, and this year it's following it up with an even faster racing variant. It's called the Jaguar Vision Gran Turismo SV, and it has some pretty wild specifications. This virtual racing machine no longer uses three motors, but four, with the extra motor being fitted to the front and allowing torque vectoring at all four wheels. Output has increased substantially to 1,877 horsepower and 2,478 pound-feet of torque. The regular Jaguar Vision Gran Turismo "only" made 1,005 horsepower and 885 pound-feet of torque. Jaguar claims a 0-60 mph time for the SV of 1.65 seconds and a top speed of 255 mph. That top speed might be higher if it weren't for the various aerodynamic aids adding downforce. It has a huge splitter, diffuser and long adaptive rear wing. The car can create up to 1,000 pounds of downforce at 200 mph. One other wild performance feature is the cooling system for the lithium-ion battery pack. It has a coolant circuit with liquid nitrogen that ensures the battery doesn't overheat when discharging the massive amount of electricity to run the powerful motors. Though Jaguar will likely never actually produce a functional version of this car in real life, the company did at least create a full-size model of it. It should be impressive in person given its extraordinarily low, wide and long shape. We're hoping it shows up at car shows when the pandemic subsides. The virtual car is due to be available in 2021. Jaguar didn't specifically say which version of Gran Turismo is will be featured in. The regular car can be driven in "Gran Turismo Sport." The racing version could be added to "Gran Turismo Sport," but the launch date of 2021 has us wondering if it will instead show up in "Gran Turismo 7" for PlayStation 5. Related Video:
Jaguar F Type V6 S vs Triumph Street Triple R in open-air track attack
Sun, 21 Sep 2014Typically, these track battle videos pair up car against car or, in more disparate circumstances, car versus crossover, as we saw the other day. While the outcome of that battle was quite predictable, what'll happen when an equally fetching (and fast) four-wheeler is put up against one of the icons of the two-wheeled world? Evo just had to find out.
Matching up a Jaguar F-Type V6 S Convertible against a Triumph Street Triple R is at least more of an even fight than the last battle between the Porsche Cayman GTS and Macan Turbo. The Triumph has a 675-cc engine to work with, and is very light. Meanwhile, the Jag has a thumping 380-horsepower, 3.0-liter, supercharged V6 to haul about it's considerably heftier heft. Who will come out on top?
You'll need to watch the full video to find out.
Tata to shed 1,100 Jaguar Land Rover jobs after coronavirus hits earnings
Mon, Jun 15 2020BENGALURU — India's Tata Motors Ltd expects to shed about 1,100 temporary jobs at Jaguar Land Rover after it raised the cost-cutting target at its luxury unit by 1 billion pounds ($1.26 billion) to ride out the disruptions caused by the coronavirus outbreak. Tata Motors expects to save 5 billion pounds in costs by March 2021 at its Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) unit, the Indian automaker's Chief Financial Officer PB Balaji said on Monday, adding 3.5 billion pounds of the savings had already been achieved. It will also reduce capital expenditure at JLR to 2.5 billion pounds for the current fiscal year, from the more than 3 billion pounds it has spent annually in previous years. "Conserving cash and prioritizing capital expenditure, and targeting investment spending to the right areas is our focus," Balaji told reporters, after the company posted a fourth quarter loss. We anticipate that up to 1,100 agency employees will be affected, a JLR spokeswoman said in a separate statement. Tata Motors is reviewing all its businesses and would consider exiting those that do not add strategic value, as part of a broader effort to save 60 billion rupees ($789 million) in its domestic business in the fiscal year to 2021. The automaker on Monday posted a consolidated fourth quarter net loss of 98.94 billion rupees, as coronavirus lockdowns across its markets ravaged sales, including at JLR. Total revenue from operations fell 27.7% to 624.93 billion rupees in the quarter, which ended March 31. JLR, which contributes the bulk of Tata Motors' revenues, reported a pre-tax loss of 501 million pounds for the period after it took a hit of 800 million pounds because of the novel coronavirus, Balaji said. He said there were signs sales were recovering in China, one of JLR's biggest markets, as well as in the United States and in Europe, with strong orders for Land Rover's sport-utility vehicle Defender and Range Rover's Evoque. JLR's boss Ralf Speth, who has led the company since 2010, will step down from his role at the end of his contract term in September.
