1970 Jaguar E-type on 2040-cars
Bradenton, Florida, United States
IF YOU ARE INTERESTED EMAIL ME AT: chassidycggou@geordies.org . The car has 88,000 original miles in its 45 years of service. Still wearing it's
original light blue exterior paint, original dark blue leather interior, and with it's original black hard top and
soft blue top (I'm not sure about the originality of the soft top). This car has had extensive mechanical work done
but not been cosmetically restored, which brings the much valued patina. You can see the leather on the seats, that
although you can see it's original and patina, they are still in very good condition. You can also tell by the
original seat belts. With over more than $25k worth of mechanical work done, including all breaking system,
suspension, all hoses replaced, engine rebuilt, distributor replaced, new exhausted system, new aluminum radiator,
among other things. Basically the car has not been used after the engine rebuilt.
This car will start at the first try, it doesn't leak oil (hard to believe), it does not blow smoke at all of any
color, it will not overheat and it will stop as it should. This is not at show car, it's definitely a driver car
and I do not intend to give the idea that the car is perfect. There are still areas to improve, mostly
cosmetically. Among the things that need to attention are: windshield hose, air conditioning (it was not
restorable), carpets (were in very bad shape, so it does not include carpets), among other small cosmetically bits
and pieces. All easy fixes, but also an “easy” restoration in case someone would like to have the work done to
have this car at show quality.
The car also includes the original full spare wire wheel and tire as well as the original changing tools. The
crome is in very good condition as you can tell from the pictures. The paint although is original, it is not in
perfect shape but I decided not to paint it in order to keep the car as original as possible but having it in very
good mechanically condition to be able to enjoy it.

Jaguar F-Type SVR and Range Rover Evoque Convertibles go rainbow for Pride
Sat, Jun 29 2019BMW isn't the only automobile company getting involved in Pride Week, as Jaguar Land Rover announced it also has cars that will participate. And yes, they're convertibles with rainbow stripes. On Sunday, June 30, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) will participate in the NYC Pride March with several themed vehicles and employees walking next to them. JLR chose two of its most intriguing vehicles in the Jaguar F-Type SVR convertible and the Range Rover Evoque Convertible. Jaguar unveiled two different F-Type SVRs, one in a gorgeous blue and the other in white. Both cars have the same detailing, though, including rainbow stripes on the the sides, rear bumpers, and hoods. The F-Types also have rainbow stripes across the tops of their windshields, and "JAG YOU ARE" decals across the windshields and rear bumpers. The silver Evoque is only slightly different. It, too, has rainbow stripes across its doors, rear bumper, and windshield. Rather than a "JAG YOU ARE" decal, however, "EVOQUE" is spread across the front bumper in rainbow lettering. You can check out these unique models at the Pride parade in NYC.
Jaguar XJ220 hooned remotely by a kid
Sat, 31 Aug 2013The Tax the Rich crew has a knack for indulging in automotive fantasies and capturing it all on video, such as a tug-of-war battle between two Ferrari F50s, drifting a Ferrari Enzo on gravel roads and even powersliding a Rolls-Royce Phantom on a field of wet grass. This latest video features a Jaguar XJ220 and a kid with an iPad, who somehow is able to control the old supercar with the Apple product.
No, there's no app for that (yet), and we lied - the boy isn't actually controlling the car - but it sure is nice to see the XJ220 in all its turbocharged, six-cylinder glory doing donuts and sliding across a grassy field. It jolts us to see the old Jaguar - capable of 217 miles per hour and once described by Jeremy Clarkson as having no brakes and massive turbo lag - thrown about like a rally car, but then we never imagined anybody would abuse a Rolls-Royce like that either. We'll continue to leave the high-stakes antics to Tax the Rich - we're just glad somebody had the guts to behave so badly in such a valuable machine. What else were they made for?
Be sure to check out the video below, if you have a pulse.
Jaguar F-Type SVR set to go topless
Wed, Aug 19 2015Jaguar's sultry F-Type convertible will soon be getting sharper claws. We've captured the high-powered SVR variant during track testing, and these spy shots show huge air intakes and a prominent splitter up front. They're balanced at the rear with a massive spoiler and a central diffuser that breaks up the angled, jutting exhaust pipes. The cloth top is also evident, and it's presence has been expected. Previously, we spied the hardtop variant. This prototype looks ready for production, with the bodywork screwed down and the head- and taillights peering out. Even the black wheels with thin spokes wouldn't look out of place on the street. We also see the cross-drilled carbon-ceramic brakes. These massive stoppers will be required to slow down the 5.0-liter supercharged V8, which could make 600 horsepower. That blows by the 550-hp F-Type R and the limited production F-Type Project 7 (575 hp). The Project 7 can hit 60 miles per hour in 3.8 seconds, and we'd expect the SVR model to eclipse that figure. The F-Type SVR and its convertible sibling are part of Jaguar's strategy to remain to true to its sporting heritage – the company counts seven Le Mans victories – while adding vehicles like the F-Pace crossover and XE sedan to adapt to modern consumer preferences.
