I purchased this car a few years ago to restore and drive. Unfortunately it is a project that I will probably never get to. The car is very complete and runs strong. I was driving it up and down the driveway and in front of the house, but a few months ago, the brake pedal just went to the floor. I am not sure what is wrong with the brake system, but it needs complete rebuild.

The tires are Pirelli and have good tread. The wire wheels are all intact including the spare. There are some minor rust spots on the wheels. They do need to be cleaned and polished.

The A/C still blows very cold air and all gauges and controls seem to function.

It needs a new battery, but will start with a jump.

There are numerous surface rust spots on the body which I tried to show in the photos.

A large tree branch fell on the bonnet a year ago and dented it. A good body repair person would have no trouble repairing that.

As far as I can tell, there is no major corrosion anywhere on the body.

The interior is all original in biscuit color. There are no tears in the leather seats. The dash will need to be recovered. The rear boot floor is made out of plywood and covered with vinyl. The plywood is delaminated and will have to be replaced. The vinyl is probably salvageable. The headliner is sagging inside the car.

The carburetors were rebuilt by me a couple of years ago and at that time a new Crane "Fireball" Ignition system was installed. The SU Fuel Pump was rebuilt last year.

I replaced the rear mufflers at that time, but now it needs the fronts and/or the exhaust pipes replaced as the car is quite loud.

If you're looking for a car to totally restore to Concours condition, this would be an excellent starting point. Or, if you are looking for one which would require just a bit of work to again make roadworthy, this would also be a good candidate. It is a good straight, honest car with a very fair reserve price.

I have described this vehicle as honestly as I can. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.

This car will not be able to be driven due to the lack of brakes, but I encourage you to see this car in person- by appointment only.

2013 Jaguar XFR-S

Why Ask Questions When You Already Know The Answer?
"Is it fast?"
We get that question a lot. Several times a month, in fact, and it comes from every corner of our lives - friends, family, complete strangers and even colleagues from time to time. And it's an understandable query. After all, speed, either in a straight line or around a twisty bit of tarmac, is a universally accepted line of demarcation between the typical family sedan and something much more fun and therefore desirable.

Jaguar I-Pace named World Car of the Year

Wed, Apr 17 2019

NEW YORK — The Jaguar I-Pace has been named World Car of the Year, an award meant to honor the most significant new car introduction and conferred by an international jury of automotive journalist judges. The group announced the winners of additional awards at the New York Auto Show, with the Audi A7 named World Luxury Car of the Year, the McLaren 720S recognized as World Performance Car of the Year, and the Suzuki Jimny named World Urban Car. The I-Pace additionally took home two other awards: World Car Design of the Year and World Green Car of the Year. The WCOTY team of 86 jurors hail from 24 countries, and the organization is independent and not tied to any publication. This is the 15th year for the awards. For this year's World Car of the Year award the top three finalists were the I-Pace, the Audi E-Tron, and the Volvo S60/V60. Previous WCOTY winners were the Volvo XC60 in 2018 and the Jaguar F-Pace in 2017. View 74 Photos

Jaguar 3 Series-fighter to spawn coupe, wagon

Wed, 25 Sep 2013

With its sights set on the BMW 3 Series, Jaguar could be planning a full range of models for its upcoming entry-level car - possibly called the XS. We've already seen spy shots of the four-door version of this all-aluminum baby Jag, but according to Auto Express, the automaker will also offer the car in coupe and wagon variants.
The XS sedan should hit the market in 2015, and the coupe and wagon models are expected soon after that. Speaking with Jag's global brand director Adrian Hallmark, AE says that the XS will be focused on styling with a design similar to the recently introduced C-X17 crossover concept. Hallmark also said that the addition of the XS lineup could help Jaguar double its sales, which were at 357,773 global units in 2012. Head on over to Auto Express for some speculative renderings of the XS coupe and wagon.
