1965 Jaguar With Reliable Chevy 6 Banger, Have Fun And Meet Girls. on 2040-cars
Emeryville, California, United States
Here is one to horrify the purists and make your mechanic smile. This jag had been with its previous owner 30 years with no engine trouble. I have had a ball cruising this car! You get lots of smiles and compliments and it never feels pretentious or ostentatious. This car is not rusty. There is a box of parts that came loose at one time or another. The brakes will need immediate attention as the right rear squeals like a scalded dog. The speedo is not working and there is no power steering. So no wimps. If you are not scared off yet you could be in for a great ride! This classy cat is for the ladies. They absolutely fall for his charms, even my neighbors agree, this is a beauty. There is no headliner, you are the headliner! The suspension is soft and needs love. The guy I got it from took pride in just changing the oil and replacing belts and tune up stuff. This has been a low maintenance jag! Wow can you say those 2 words together? Gas gauge, temp gauge, oil pressure gauge working. Tape deck plays the radio, have not tried a tape. Headlights, brake lights & taillights working. Motor is solid and does not vibrate, it was a good transplant. I have tried to picture the mounts and brackets as I was very curious about the install. If it was rickety I would not have got it. My first ride was 30 miles in 100 degree heat in Reno and it climbed 1000 feet to the cabin like a champ. I think a twin carb set up would wake this cat up. It needs a new captain willing to make some improvements and refinements. If you have questions please feel free to ask and there is video of a freeway run. Just today we took mom to the kite festival in the jag, she loved it. Shipping is never a problem. As is,no refunds, no zero feedback guys. Set up an inspection or come by! Harris

Jaguar to reveal small sedan at Paris show
Wed, 11 Dec 2013Small sedans are big business for luxury automakers. The C-Class is the top seller for Mercedes-Benz, much as the 3 Series is for BMW, but Jaguar has historically missed out on that market. Its last attempt, the X-Type, proved woefully inadequate, and Jaguar hasn't attempted to take on that market again since. But that's all about to change.
Coventry has been working on a new small Jaguar for some time now (using test mules like the one above wearing modified XF body panels), and according to the latest reports coming in from the UK, it will showcase the result of those efforts at the Paris Motor Show next October. The show car will take the form of a pre-production concept that is expected to preview the production version very closely before the final item is unveiled at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show.
Tipped to be called XS (somewhat appropriately for the brand's smallest model), the new sedan is expected to be the first to use the company's new aluminum platform previewed by the C-X17. Expect styling to follow along similar lines to said crossover concept and the F-Type sportscar, with eventual sedan, wagon and coupe versions to round out the family.
Jaguar Land Rover's latest tech makes roads safer for bikes [w/video]
Tue, Jan 20 2015Safety in automobiles isn't just about protecting the occupants anymore. It's about protecting pedestrians who might be struck by an automobile, and as Jaguar Land Rover is demonstrating, it's about protecting cyclists as well. The latest experimental safety system from the British automaker is called Bike Sense, and it builds upon technologies the company has demonstrated recently, taking them a step further to make the road safer for those riding on two wheels. The system uses a combination of colors, sounds and vibrations to alert the driver of a potential hazard that might have otherwise gone unnoticed. Demonstrated on an XJ sedan, the system identifies nearby two-wheeled vehicles as pedal-powered or motorized, and alerts the driver accordingly. If a cycle is passing a the vehicle's blind spot, the top of the seat will vibrate to virtually "tap" the driver on the left or right shoulder, prompting him or her to look over that shoulder for the hazard. LEDs inside the cabin will then illuminate amber to red in the direction that the bike is passing. The system will even chime a bicycle bell or motorcycle horn as the two-wheeled vehicle approaches, and vibrate or stiffen the accelerator pedal if the driver keeps moving towards the obstacle. And if an occupant of the parked vehicle starts to open the door into the path of moving vehicle, it'll flash a light, sound an alarm and even vibrate the door handle to warn the occupant of the oncoming hazard. We could imagine the alerts getting a little distracting, but JLR says the system is designed to prioritize potential hazards when their are groups of pedestrians, bicyclists and/or motorcycle riders on a busy urban street. This is, of course, just the latest in a long string of new systems JLR has under development, following such technologies as the Transparent Bonnet, the Smart Assistant, the Virtual Windscreen for track sessions and the 360 Virtual Urban Windscreen for city driving.

Jaguar C-X75 and Aston Martin DB10 spied drifting during Spectre shoot
Fri, Feb 27 2015Based on the cars alone, the 24th James Bond film, Spectre, is set to be one of the biggest and most impressive in the long-lived franchise. While we're stuck waiting until November to see the automotive extravaganza on the big screen, a lucky bystander managed to catch two of the movie's four-wheeled stars filming on the streets of Rome. Italian YouTuber Marchettino, well known for his videos from Ferrari's Fiorano test track, caught the video of the Aston Martin DB10 and Jaguar C-X75 filming in the dark of the Roman night, with the Aston sliding its way around a turn and the Jag giving chase. Not surprisingly, the DB10's Vantage-derived V8 features prominently. This is, of course, not the first time news regarding this chase scene has graced our digital pages. Spectre star Daniel Craig sustained a minor injury in the course of this filming, after the DB10 he was riding in hit a pretty significant pothole. We've also caught 007's Aston filming in the UK.
