1970 Jaguar E Type Xke Roadster California Car With Hard Top on 2040-cars
Orchard Park, New York, United States
|
Very nice special order Jaguar E type, black on black, with full service history and mileage documentation from when it was new! The car was ordered new in Palm Springs, California. The first owner purchased the car on 5/27/1970 for $5,868.50. He kept a log book of anything done or bought for the car with date, cost and mileage. He keep the car till 10/24/1988 when he traded it in for a Ferrari. The second owner, also from Palm Springs, kept the car there till 2008. He also keep the log book, noting anything no matter how small that was done to the car. The third and last owner, who looked for a car like this for years, searched the country to find a rust free E type. He spared no expense on the car. The last owner did the following repairs done at the Jaguar dealership: All new rotors; rebuilt calipers; installed pads; replaced both master cylinders; changed fluids; replaced all fuel hoses; replaced all six shocks; replaced belts; replaced distributor, wires and plugs; replaced clutch slave cylinder; mounted and balanced 4 tires; replaced tie rod and ball joints; replaced all hoses; replaced coolant; replaced u joints; repacked wheel bearings and rear hub assemblies; drained and refilled transmission and rear end fluid; installed stainless exhaust system; rebuilt carburetors and much more. I have receipts totaling more than $14,000 in parts and labor. I believe that the third owner disconnected the odometer cable. I believe the mileage is still very close to stated miles. The work performed on the car was done in '09 and '10 with new tires which still have knobbies. The car was used very little after that time. I try to disclose what I know. The car has not been restored. It has had some touch ups over the years, which is also noted in the log book. The car comes with the factory hard top with a new rear window (not installed), all books, foot rest, homemade E type luggage, tonneau cover, never used spare, jack, tool roll and the original wire wheels. This all comes with the car. The car is number matching and matches the heritage report. The only defects on the car is the dash pad has a previous repair and a crack and the driver seat has a 2" split on the seam. Hard top will need some seals replaced and the rubber around the bumpers has some cracking. The car was just appraised and it was rated as a Number Two condition.
Engine number 7R9525-9 ; Chassie/VIN number 1R11866 ; Body number 4R6412 ; Gear Box number KE10784 The car is located outside Buffalo, New York. The car will come with a transferable New York State registration from the previous owner as New York does not issue titles on pre 1973 vehicles. Pick up of the extra wheels and the rear window is the buyers responsibility. Car is sold in "as is" condition. You are welcome to call 716-432-3360. |

Jaguar F-Type 'Design Study' headed to Goodwood
Mon, 08 Jul 2013With the Goodwood Festival of Speed taking place this weekend, Jaguar has announced it will be there with its new trio of R models as well as a design study version of the hot new F-Type sports car. While we've already seen the XFR-S last year at the LA Auto Show and the XJR and XKR-S GT at the New York Auto Show, the F-Type design study has our attention.
Based on our recent sighting of a fixed-roof F-Type being tested in full camouflage, this could mean that we'll finally get to see a sexy F-Type Coupe in near-production form. Of course, with all of the other R branded models on display, Jaguar could also unveil a sporty new R - or maybe even an RS - F-Type roadster. Whatever is planned, it will not be a static display - Jaguar says the design study car will be in action, making the fabled run up Goodwood Hill with chief engineer Mike Cross at the wheel. Scroll down for more information about what Jaguar has planned for Goodwood.
Jaguar readying a pop-top F-Type Coupe? [w/poll]
Mon, 17 Feb 2014Typically convertibles are spun off of coupes, but sometimes it goes the other way. Like the Porsche Cayman that was based on the Boxster, the Lotus Exige spun off of the Elise, and the Jaguar F-Type, which arrived as a roadster before the coupe debuted. But if the latest reports are to be believed, Jaguar could be planning something in between.
According to Auto Express (which has, mind you, been known to stretch the rumors out some), Jaguar is toying with the idea of offering a partial convertible version of the F-Type - something Porsche would call a Targa (and which we would too if Stuttgart weren't so litigiously protective of the name). The additional roof configuration would give the F-Type three body-styles, giving its customers more choices.
It wouldn't be the only sports car to offer three roof options: There's the Porsche 911, of course. Ferrari once offered GTB, GTS and Spider versions of the 348 and 355. The Chevy Corvette has been offered in all three forms, as was the Pontiac Solstice many moons ago. But that kind of variety in roof configurations has become scarce. Jaguar's decision reportedly depends on whether it can make the business case or not. Do you think there'd be enough demand for a lift-roof F-Type?
2014 Jaguar F-Type V8 S [w/video]
Thu, 14 Nov 2013Withhold judgment on the world's greatest exhaust note until after you've heard the Jaguar F-Type V8 S (scroll down now for a sneak peek). Its cackle, boom and pop under deceleration will have you rifling through its glovebox looking for a tool to remove the stereo as an in-dash audio system.
Combining modern technology with age-old exhaust plumbing, Jaguar's British engineers have developed a way to propel spent combustion gases into the atmosphere in a manner that elevates the complete driving experience. At idle, it purrs. Under acceleration, it roars. During cruise, it soothes. Perhaps most compellingly, during deceleration, it titillates.
Thankfully, the newest two-place convertible from Jaguar isn't only defined by its mesmerizing soundtrack - the F-Type would be an impressive sports car even if the world went silent.
