DESCRIPTION
The Jaguar Mark II, first introduced in late 1959 as a replacement for the Mark I, was the second iteration of a four door saloon by the Coventry automaker. Sir William Lyons adage of “Grace…pace…space” had certainly been further tweaked from the Mark I, as the Mark II was even more elegant, faster and roomier than its predecessor! Offered with the standard host of luxury features expected from Jaguar, the car was available with three different versions of the XK engine ranging from a relatively tame 2.5L unit to a beefier 3.4L and all the way to the 3.8L cars, fitted standard with twin SU HD6 carburetors. The flagship 3.8 motor shared a block, crankshaft, rods and pistons with the XKE; it had one carburetor and 30 less hp. Inside, the car had even more burled walnut and leather, in addition to a revised heating system and 20% more greenhouse glass. The Mark I had a notoriously narrow rear track (4 inches narrower than the front) and the Mark II’s revised suspension geometries and live rear axle reduced the amicable difference.

Jaguar launched two new models in 1961: the Mark X (Mark 10) saloon and the wonderful E-Type. Both were fitted with triple SU carbs and newly developed independent rear suspension. It was at this point that Sir William Lyons decided that the Mark II could use updating to remain competitive in the market. Devised as a major redesign of the Mark II, the S-type adopted a medium scale version of the Mark X’s independent rear suspension, as well as a noticeably longer rear end and interior updates. Europe got the choice of 3.4 and 3.8 S-Types while the US only got the top range 3.8 S-Type, which shared its motor with the Mark II. Further differences from the Mark II included a revised 3.5 lock-to-lock Burman power steering rack, replacing the old 4.3 lock-to-lock unit that was criticized for being excessively slow. Further structural and cosmetic changes to accommodate the S-Type’s independent rear and widened 54” rear track added almost 350 pounds. To compensate, the center of gravity was lowered with a revised roofline and sleeker rear end. The single 14 US gallon fuel tank in the Mark II was replaced with dual 8 gallon fuel tanks so that the spare tire compartment could be lowered and centered. Inside, a smaller scale Mark X burled walnut dash with cupholder / tray table and parcel shelf were added as well as new controls for the once again revised heating system. Small, concealed armrests were added to the wider front seats that had new integrated fore/aft adjustment. The rear passengers were also treated to a center armrest and Mark X style folding picnic trays. On paper, the added weight of the S-Type looked as if it could really dampen the fun but performance figures of the time didn’t lie…the 3.8 S-Type with an Automatic transmission could muster 0-60 in 11.5 seconds and could go on to 116 mph! As a result, they were very popular for people on both sides of the law.

We are very excited to offer this 1965 Jaguar 3.8 S-Type saloon! Finished in Sherwood Green over Red Ambla upholstery, this Jaguar is sure to catch attention! Fitted with its original, numbers matching 3.8L motor with correct twin SU HD6 carbs, it also has the following factory options: Automatic transmission, AM/FM radio, Speed-hold and Chrome wire knock-off wheels! This car maintains standard features such as full Smiths gauges (speedometer/odometer, tachometer/clock, water temperature, oil pressure, fuel level and amps), Lucas day/night rear-view mirror, dual visors with passenger vanity mirror, four wheel disc brakes, Powr-Lok limited-slip rear end with 3.54 gearing, bumper guards, and seat belts. Looking closer, you will find original 1964 date-coded Triplex glass and the original owner’s manual.

While the car does run and drive, we are presenting the car as a project. The exterior of the car has been partially repainted and clear coated and the red interior appears to have been replaced at some point. Both are showing signs of wear and age, as is the burled walnut on the dash, which we believe to be original. This car has brand new chrome wire wheels wrapped in Michelin HydroEdge 205/70 R15 tires. The exterior chrome with the exception of the bumpers, is in decent shape; the door trim is shiny and smooth but the bumpers, hood trim, license plate surround, passenger front door handle and emblem will likely need redone. In the interior, the chrome is in excellent shape and all the wood on the doors, B-pillars and rear is all new. As mentioned, the dash appears original and untouched. In the trunk is an original wire wheel and a tool kit complete except for one screwdriver. Once warmed up, this Jaguar runs great, shifts smooth and has no trouble getting up to speed. The car comes with a plethora of service records including $18,801 in receipts and records since 2006. They were done at Autos of Europe, Inc of Manchester, MO and are as follows:

6/19/06 - $8,732.67 – Cooling system service, reseal intake manifold, repair rear subframe, brake fluid service, replace rear brakes and rotors, remove and install rear suspension, replace rear brake calipers, replace emergency brake system, install thermostat and repair housing, replace radiator and fuel hoses, differential service and reseal, remove and rebuild carbs, oil filter, replace tie rod ends, replace center line, repair shut-off valve and a transmission service.

11/29/07 - $4,172.67 – Adjust carb, replace tires, balance wheels, replace front brakes and rotors, repair front brake calipers, check and repair heater blower, remove and reinstall all rear wood panels.

9/28/12 - $2,467.31 – Oil change, check tire pressures, fluid top-off, carburetor float rebuild, remove fuel tank/inspect/seal/reinstall, remove and replace fuel cold sender, replace exhaust from the manifold back, powder coat manifold black.

The car presents a drivable project for a Jaguar enthusiast looking to restore a classic saloon! The odometer shows 80,086 miles and it is working. We believe these miles to be original but have no way of being certain. We would be more than happy to answer any additional questions and better explain any aspects of the car that may be of further interest! Thanks for looking!

Jaguar Land Rover posts profitable quarter amidst big yearly losses

Mon, May 20 2019

Jaguar has posted its first profit in quite some time, as the financial quarter ending on March 31 brought in a net income of $151.6 million. However, that is the light in the end of the tunnel, as full year results through March showed a $4.58 billion loss (GBP3.6 billion). The losses are again attributable to declining sales in China, with a whiff of the still-lingering Brexit process. While JLR's annual U.S. sales were up 8.1 percent, and U.K. sales improved by 8.4%, overall sales came down 5.8% to 578,915 vehicles. For April, Chinese sales nearly halved as they dropped by 46 percent. Earlier this year, JLR's woes caused its owner Tata Motors to post the biggest ever quarterly loss in Indian corporate history, at nearly $4 billion. JLR's CEO Ralf Speth stated that the company is "reducing complexity" and transforming its business by cost savings and cash flow improvements, citing the fourth-quarter profits as an example of the ongoing turnaround. Speth said JLR has already managed to deliver $1.59 billion (GBP1.25 billion) of efficiencies and savings. JLR says its turnaround program, dubbed Charge, will drive it to at least $3.18 billion (GBP2.5 billion) of investment, working capital and profit improvements by March 2020, and that it currently has $4.84 billion (GBP3.8 billion) of cash. Speth continued that JLR will "go forward as a transformed company that's leaner and fitter," and that the sustained investment in new products and technologies will drive future demand. There has been earlier speculation of Tata Motors selling JLR to the PSA Group, but as Autocar reports, Tata's financial chief again refuted these rumors. JLR also announced today that its CFO of 11 years, Ken Gregor is stepping down after 22 years with the company, and that he will be succeeded by JLR's Chief Transformation Officer, Adrian Mardell.

Watch Jaguar build its XJR Rapid Response Vehicle for Bloodhound SSC

Fri, Jun 19 2015

Last 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. Jaguar Rapid Response Vehicles for Bloodhound SSC to Star at Goodwood Festival of Speed - Bespoke Jaguar XJR Rapid Response Vehicle (RRV) for Bloodhound SSC to make dynamic world debut at Goodwood Festival of Speed - Current world land speed record holder Andy Green to drive the 16MY XJR RRV up the Goodwood hill on Saturday 27 June 2015 - Bloodhound's RRV Fleet now includes two XJRs and an F-TYPE custom-built by Jaguar Land Rover's Special Operations team - Jaguar's history in supporting world land speed records dates back to 1983 with an XJ12 for Richard Noble's record attempt in Thrust 2 Jaguar is to further showcase its commitment as Technical and Innovation Partner to the Bloodhound Project with the world debut of its custom-built XJR Rapid Response Vehicle (RRV) at Goodwood Festival of Speed, alongside the recently unveiled F-TYPE R AWD RRV. One of two XJRs being provided for the record attempts will be on show at the festival and will also take part in the First Glance hill run on Saturday 27 June 2015 with current world land speed record holder and Bloodhound SSC driver Andy Green at the wheel. The two new additions to Bloodhound's fleet are the latest creation of Jaguar Land Rover's Special Vehicle Operations (SVO) division and are wrapped in a bespoke livery created by Jaguar Design incorporating the Bloodhound SSC colours.

There's a video below of Pomplun and her F-Type getting 'camera ready,' and a press release below that in case you want to, you know, "read the article."
