Up for auction is my 2001 Jaguar S-Type 4.0 V8 Sedan, RWD.  NO RESERVE!!  

Let me first apologize for the lack of photos, and the quality.  I work during daylight hours, and night time is pretty much my only chance at a day shot.  However, send me a message with your cell phone, and I can text you pix that you would like to see. The exterior is either Metallic Black, or Black Onyx...
I'm selling this car because I have replaced it with another vehicle better suited for my long trips to and from work.  So, I don't need this Jaguar anymore, since I only bought it for its awesomeness and better MPG (25-27hwy) than my truck.  I would like to rid myself of the car note I got into with high interest.  It really is awesome, makes me smile to drive it, and see others watch me drive it, but I don't need it, and I've been going on a need to have basis here lately.  

This is a rare find!  Excellent condition, inside and out.  Paint has no chips that I've found, and the leather interior is in excellent shape, especially for the age.  Very very, small scratch in the bottom rear of driver seat. The headliner is starting to release from the ceiling, perhaps from high summer heat.  However, you will be impressed when you look inside. There are just a little over 74,000 miles on this Jag, and the price is a steal! 17 inch Chrome 10 star factory wheels.  Spare in trunk, along with a whole bunch of room, and back-up gas door release.  New tires on the rear, and the front 2 aren't far from new either. The front end has also been aligned just 5000 miles ago.  I have found 2 small dings in the passenger rear door, but you only notice them at an angled view while trying to spot them.  All the electronics work, all switches, lights.  Engine runs powerful and strong.  Variable Valve Timing on the engine, strong and smooth transmission, no slips, has sport mode, traction control on/off, heated windshield wipers, fog lights and rear fog tail lights.  Driver front fog light protective lens is broke, but the projector and light works.  I didn't even notice it until I washed it the other day.  Headlights are HID, and the bright lights are Sylvania SilverStar Ultras.  You'll notice everything going on in front of you at night time. The defroster vent cover also has a crack right at the middle, didn't notice it either until I armor-all'd it, I hear they're cheap, and also a snap-on piece.  Fresh oil and filter change just 5000 miles ago, Mobil 1 Fully Synthetic 5-30w.  All spark plugs replaced with Bosch Platinum 4's.  All front end ball joints have been replaced on both driver and passenger sides, including upper control arm and ball joint, steering knuckle and lower ball joint, hub/wheel bearing, outer tie rod ends, sway-bar links.  Never was this car in an accident that I know of, and the only reason I replaced the joints was because I had the money, time, and the rubber containing the grease had worn away. If you know this car, its particular origin, then you know you are getting an awesome deal!  Easy to work on, should you need to, fun fun fun to drive, and it turns heads everywhere you go.  There are 2 keys that come with the car.  The title is at my bank, and upon completion of the sale, I will send the title and transfer paperwork, all signed, to you the next business day after payment.  

I'm sure there is something I'm leaving out that you want to or need to know.  So, please ask me anything.  I know a pretty good bit about this car, so I should be able to answer anything and everything you need to know.  There are no recalls on this Jaguar.  Selling as is, where is, but will meet you if need be.   NO RESERVE!!  If only 1 bid at $6000, SOLD.

New info, my wife drove the car the other day and told me that it was harder to start, and that the passenger side heat is blowing out cold.  I've looked up possible causes, and it seems like an easy fix. I drove the Jag recently, and believe the heat is working properly.  Cold battery.... fuse...  I'm unable to diagnose the starting problem, and definitely without the time to fix it. It does start, and will everytime.   Hopefully its a DIY deal that you yourself can handle.  It's been colder here than recently, and maybe the cold air being sucked into the intake from outside is making the noticeable difference on delayed starting of the car.  Not sure.  I'm slowly looking over things at night to make sure I'm not leaving anything out.  More than welcome to call and schedule a look at the car if it'll help you decide.  Wish I had better pix.  
Also, to help prevent any false hopes, new members need to contact me before bidding, and bidders with negative feedback need not bid.  I have trouble in the past with fakers, and people upset that they didn't win at "their" price, and kept jacking up the bid to outbid others and then not pay.  Using an account just for that purpose with no intentions of buying.  
My name is Brent, 936-201-1803  lv a msg if no answer, because I'm probably busy, but I WILL get back to you...
Thanks, good luck!

Child cobalt miners: Automakers pledge ethical minerals sourcing for EVs

Wed, Nov 29 2017

BERLIN - Leading carmakers including Volkswagen and Toyota pledged on Wednesday to uphold ethical and socially responsible standards in their purchases of minerals for an expected boom in electric vehicle production. Demand for minerals such as cobalt, graphite and lithium is forecast to soar in the coming years as governments crack down on vehicle pollution and carmakers step up their investments in electric models. To cover its plans for more than 80 new models by 2025, Volkswagen alone is looking for partners in China, Europe and North America to provide battery cells and related technology worth more than 50 billion euros ($59 billion). Talks with major cobalt producers, including Glencore, at VW's Wolfsburg headquarters last week ended without a deal. More than half of the world's cobalt comes from the Democratic Republic of Congo, a country racked by political instability and legal opacity, and where child labor is used in mines. On Wednesday, a group of 10 leading passenger-car and truck manufacturers announced an initiative to jointly identify and address ethical, environmental, human and labor rights issues in raw materials sourcing. The partnership dubbed "Drive Sustainability" consists of VW, Toyota Motor Europe, Ford, Daimler, BMW, Honda, Jaguar Land Rover, Volvo Cars and truckmakers Scania and Volvo. The alliance "will assess the risks posed by the top raw materials (such as mica, cobalt, rubber and leather) in the automotive sector," said Stefan Crets of the CSR Europe business network. "This will allow Drive Sustainability to identify the most impactful activities to pursue" to address issues within the supply chain.Reporting by Andreas Cremer.Related Video: Image Credit: Michael Robinson Chavez/The Washington Post via Getty Images Green BMW Ford Honda Jaguar Land Rover Mercedes-Benz Automakers Toyota Volkswagen Volvo Green Automakers Green Culture Electric Scania ethics mining

All Jaguars and Land Rovers to get diesel engines... almost

Mon, Jan 12 2015

Virtually all Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles – except the F-Type sports car – will get a diesel engine option in the next three years, the company confirmed Sunday night at an event before the Detroit Auto Show. The aggressive blitz begins this fall, when the 2016 Range Rover and Range Rover Sport will launch with available turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 diesel engines. They will push out 254 horsepower and 440 pound-feet of torque, while returning fuel economy of up to 28 miles per gallon on the highway. The combined rating in city and highway driving will be 25 mpg. The Rovers will be followed in 2016 by the XE sedan and F-Pace crossover, which will offer the 2.0-liter turbodiesel four-cylinder engines, in addition to gasoline units. The diesel-powered XE is expected to get at least 40 mpg on the highway, Jaguar Land Rover North America CEO Joe Eberhardt said. The oil-burners are expected to offer 20-to-30 percent improvements in fuel economy compared with gasoline engines, depending on the vehicle. JLR's announcement comes as gasoline prices have plummeted in the United States, and regular fuel costs about $1 less than a gallon of diesel, according to AAA research. Still, the company is taking the long view, and Eberhardt said diesel engines offer greater performance and range than other options. JLR expects about 20 percent of its customers will opt for diesel engines. "We strongly believe this is what our customers will want, regardless of the fluctuations in gas prices," he said.

Jaguar XJ could move to all-electric platform late this year

Mon, Jan 22 2018

The Jaguar XJ is getting a little long in the tooth. The current generation of Jaguar's flagship sedan debuted back in 2009, making it one of the oldest vehicles still on the market. This week, Autocar reported that a new XJ could debut late this year and would move to an all-electric platform. That would place the XJ straight against cars like the Tesla Model S and upcoming Porsche Mission E, presumably sharing parts with the upcoming I-Pace electric crossover. While a couple of refreshes have kept the Jaguar competitive, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class and BMW 7 Series and Audi A8 have gone through full redesigns since the XJ debuted. (Two for the Audi). Compared to the Germans, the Jaguar looks and feels dated, especially when it comes to technology, active safety and alternative powertrains. In the U.S., the XJ is only available with either a supercharged gasoline V6 or V8. The competition from Germany, Japan and the U.S. all offer some form of electrification. Moving to an all-electric powertrain would be a huge shift for Jaguar and is sure to spark some debate among enthusiasts. The British automaker has previously stated it plans to electrify all new vehicles after 2020. Look for electrified variants of current models to be available, too. The new XJ is rumored to be co-developed with a new model called the Road Rover, a sort of high-riding sedan or wagon in the vein of the Audi allroad or Volvo V90 Cross Country. Like the XJ, the Road Rover would use a battery electric powertrain. Look for more news on both models later this year. Related Video:
