1971 Jaguar Xke 2+2 V12 Original Survivor Found With Factory Air Conditioning on 2040-cars
San Antonio, Texas, United States
1971 JAGUAR E TYPE 2+2 ORIGINAL SURVIVOR There only original once! This Jaguar E Type has mostly been in storage for the past few decades. The car runs and drives and amazingly still has ice cold blowing air conditioning. The car still sports and original factory paint and it shows pretty well. I think a polish and wax job and you’re done. Personally, I would NOT repaint this car. How many survive with original paint? This car is also a matching numbers car. The motor matches and body. The V12 starts right up and runs smooth and sounds distinctive. The past owner a few years ago put new tires on the car and an aluminum five core radiator with electric fans to keep the car running cool. He said the carbs were balanced too. The car will come with the original radiator. This car not only sports original paint, but there is no rust through found anywhere. The original sheet metal is fabulous. The car was originally a California car, then New Mexico and only recently, Texas. The body is extremely nice. There was a small bump in the nose atop the grill and some minor body work was done at some point to fix it. The drivers side bonnet has two small dents up front. The Jag is leaking what I believe is power steering fluid. I also believe the valve covers are seeping oil onto the manifolds. At engine shut down, there is sometimes oil burn off coming from the bonnet louvers for a few minutes. The transmission is an automatic and seems to shift as it should. The car shows 58,xxx miles. The speedometer cable seems bad and I don’t know how long its been off line. By the looks of the brake pedal pad, I would guess the car has less the 100k on it. Some of the gauges work, some seem not actuate. The wipers work, and original radio works and sounds pretty good. The horn works and turn signals. The brakes are good and the emergency brake grabs tight. Inside the front leather bucket seats are dry and cracked up. I would re-upholster them. The dash has no cracks forward but one towards the glass. The car comes with some extra parts and four never used carburetor kits. It will also come with several books and manuals etc. One is a large original hard cover book from the 70’s. Likely worth a lot alone. Please call or write before bidding if you have any questions. Houston Wills at 210-548-1310 between 9am-7pm CST. The car is located in San Antonio Texas and comes with a clear New Mexico title. PAYMENT AND STORAGE

Watch Jaguar build its XJR Rapid Response Vehicle for Bloodhound SSC
Fri, Jun 19 2015Last month, Jaguar revealed an F-Type specially equipped to serve as a Rapid Response Vehicle for the Bloodhound SSC. Now it's rolled out a pair of XJRs kitted out for the same purpose. Set to debut when test pilot Andy Green drives one up the hill at Goodwood later this month, the Jaguar XJR Rapid Response Vehicle has been equipped by Jaguar Land Rover's Special Vehicle Operations division. As you can see, it's got a special livery of blue and orange to mimic the rocket- and jet-powered streamliner's own color scheme, and has been stripped out and fitted with a roll cage and specially crafted tools for the land speed record attempt. Of course, the 5.0-liter supercharged V8 carries over with its 550 horsepower to propel it to 60 in 4.4 seconds and on to a top speed of 174 miles per hour. Alongside the F-Type – which recently undertook a parachute deployment test – the pair of XJR Rapid Response Vehicles will be on hand in South Africa when the Bloodhound attempts to break the land speed record as well as the sound barrier on dry land. Check out the build process in the video.

Hardcore Jaguar F-Type underway, 600 horsepower possible
Thu, Mar 26 2015Thanks to an already potent range of supercharged engines with some of the best exhaust notes available, the Jaguar F-Type is without a doubt a sublime performer. Still, there's always room to grow, and we are getting another good look from the Nurburgring at what's suspected to be an even more powerful version on the way. Spy shots of what was believed to be the Jaguar F-Type R-S first came out last spring. This time the roadster is practically uncamouflaged, though. The similarities are definitely there, and both test cars wear the same wheel design and quad-tailpipe rear diffuser. The latest one lacks the massive front splitter jutting out but gets a quite large, fixed trunk lid spoiler at the rear. You can also spot some large-diameter ceramic brake discs behind the wheels. The things happening under the bonnet might be even more interesting, though. To befit all of the exterior performance upgrades, Jaguar's supercharged 5.0-liter V8 is expected to nestle between the front wheels, and the mill is likely getting a boost in power to take output to 580 or even 600 horsepower, versus 550hp in standard form. Hopefully, the extra grunt makes the exhaust note even more intoxicating, as well.

Jaguar Buys World's Largest Collection Of British Classic Cars
Fri, Jul 25 2014This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Jaguar's Special Operations division announced today it has bought the world's largest collection of classic British cars. The 543 cars had belonged to wealthy dental entrepreneur Dr. James Hull, who sold the entire collection to the British automaker for $170 million dollars. Jaguar scored 130 of its own vehicles in the lot, including a XK, SS, C, D and E-types, XJ as well as a few rare Land Rovers, according to Road & Track. The division that bought the cars is not only responsible for the heritage museum, but also for special projects. Special Operations finished the 18-car run of the lightweight E-types, albeit 50 years late. Jaguar plans to use the cars as promotional pieces to highlight the history of the brand, according to Cars UK. Related Gallery Retro Features Car Shoppers Still Want
