Offered for sale is a spectacular Series II E-Type Roadster - one of the finest examples available. "The Blending of Art & Machine". Full documentation includes; original title, original VIN plate & British Heritage Motor Trust  Production Record Trace Certificate and as far as I can tell everything appears to be numbers matching.

By the time Jaguar got to the Series II they had sorted out the E-Type a bit more.  More comfortable  seating, better electrics, better cooling, and the 4.2 liter engine.  Also, the Series II is more masculine & aggressive looking than the earlier cars

This car underwent a 9 year full ground up, rotisserie, nut & bolt restoration.  Every part of the vehicle was disassembled, cleaned, sand blasted/glass beaded, painted, and all parts were restored, rebuilt or replaced.

Every part on this car received excruciating attention to detail.  For example: the regulator flap inside the heater box was rusted and had a hole in it.  I disassembled the heater box, had the heater core re-cored, welded up the hole in the heater flap, ground down the welds, applied epoxy primer, block sanded the flap & painted it to a mirror finish with Glasuit urethane enamel paint.  All for a part no one can see!

My plan when restoring this car was to make everything as true to original as possible, but to utilize the better quality materials that are available today.  I used as many NOS parts as possible unless there was a better option available.

The restoration features:
  • Glasuit two-part urethane enamel primers, base coats & clear coats
  • Supercool Oversize Radiator Core
  • Stainless Steel Exhaust
  • Stainless Steel Brake Lines
  • Stainless & Grade 8 hardware
  • Petronics Electronic Ignition & Coil
  • Gear Reduction Starter
  • Series III Cooling Fan Relay & Wiring
  • CoolMat High Tech Heat Protection/Sound Deadening Material
  • 5 Dayton 72 Spoke Chrome & Stainless Wire Wheels
  • 5 Avon 205 70R 95V Radial Tires
  • Adjustable Torsion Bar Reaction Plate
  • Racing Bearings & Bushings

This award wining E-Type has received to date:

  • Best of Show Rolex Vintage Festival @ Lime Rock Park scoring 999 points out of 1000 by professional judges
  • Best of Show Jaguar Club of CT 3 years in a row
  • Best English Sports Car Greenwich Concours de Elegance
  • Best of Class 3 years in a row Lime Rock Vintage Festival
  • Best in Class 3 years in a row  Jaguar Club of CT
  • Misc. Best in Class Awards
  • National 3rd Place Award North American MG Register
  • All awards come with sale the of E-Type

The documentation includes:

  • Original Title
  • Original VIN ID Plate
  • British Heritage Motor Trust  Production Record Trace Certificate
  • Rolex Best of Show Score Sheet
  • Receipts for over $75K in Parts
  • Two Workshop Manuals
  • Two Illustrated Parts Catalogs
  • E-Type Wiring Manual
  • Misc. Restoration Guides
  • Misc. Engine Manuals
  • Misc. Jaguar E-Type History Books

The final result is a Jaguar Series II E-Type that is much better than the sum of its parts.  

Jaguar E-Type pricing is through the roof and is continuing to grow.

Recently one sold for a record breaking $467,500.00 & another Series I 3.8 previously sold for $375,173.00

As I this is one of the finest examples of a Series II E-Type, I am accepting offers starting at $200,000.00

Jaguar moves to trademark C-Pace name

Wed, Jul 11 2018

Jaguar is again picking up the pace. The manufacturer has filed a new European trademark application with the word "Pace" in it, and this time it's all about the C-Pace. While there is no other info to go with the name, it could very well stand for a new, upcoming compact crossover that would exist as an entry-level vehicle under the F-Pace, E-Pace and the electric I-Pace (which is easily differentiated from the non-electric E-pace, as the I-Pace doesn't use internal combustion). Australia's CarAdvice suggests the eventual range-topping Pace model would be called the J-Pace, to go along with the XJ nameplate that's formed an upscale backbone for Jaguar for decades. As for sedans, the XE is paired with the E-Pace, and the F-Pace corresponds to the XF; with Volvo's crossover versions already reserving the XC name, there's no chance for Jaguar to have a matching C-Pace and XC combination in its portfolio. The C-Pace could also be a crossover coupe version based on either the E-Pace or the F-Pace. The trademark application was filed on July 9, and along with car-related goods and services, the application also covers software and charging stations, even buildings. We'll keep an eye on it.

Jaguar Land Rover and Chery investing in Chinese plant

Sat, 24 Nov 2012

While the European auto market for Jaguar and Land Rover is waning, Chinese car buyers can't get enough of the British marques. To meet that demand, Tata Motors, parent company of Jag and Land Rover, is partnering with Chinese automaker Chery Automobile Co.
The two announced plans to invest $1.75 billion to build a new plant and create a new, China-focused brand. 2014 is the target for completion of the factory. Jaguars and Land Rovers built at the facility will be the first ever produced outside the UK according to the Associated Press. The JV will be called Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Company Ltd.
The announcement comes less than a month after JLR announced it would open a design studio in China. It's not clear from the reports whether the two announcements are part of the same JV or two separate plans.

2017 North American Car, Truck, and Utility of the Year entries announced

Wed, Jul 6 2016

Over 40 vehicles will compete for the 2017 North American Car, Truck, and Utility of the Year awards. If that name looks a little strange, it's because the competition added a third category. In years past, pickup trucks, crossovers, SUVs, commercial vans, and minivans competed for the same award. That's why there were occasionally weird comparisons, like last year's competition between the Volvo XC90 and Nissan Titan XD. The new format separates pickups and commercial vans into the truck contest and CUVs, SUVs, and minivans into the utility competition. A complete list of eligible vehicles is below, but here are a few highlights. For one, the entire list of entries has a luxurious lean. Of the 43 vehicles, nearly half of them are from premium brands. There are two eligible Bentleys – the Bentayga and Mulsanne – the Rolls-Royce Dawn, Jaguar F-Pace, Audi Q7, and the Mercedes-Benz GLS-, E-, and S-Class Maybach. The performance ranks are lofty, too, with the Audi R8, Acura NSX, Alfa Romeo Giulia, Mercedes SL- and SLC-Class, Porsche 718, and F-150 Raptor. The mainstream entries are just as comprehensive. From the Chrysler Pacifica to the Chevrolet Cruze to the Fiat 124 Spider to the Mitsubishi Mirage, NACTOY has covered an enormous price range with this year's contestants. Of course, these are only the eligible vehicles. They'll need to run through three rounds of judging, starting in September at NACTOY's traditional Hell, MI, test drive. The Canadian and American journalists involved in the judging will announce this year's nine finalists – three in each category – on December 6.
