Here is an opportunity to own the last of the real breed of Jaguars. This is an absolutely beautiful last year example of the iconic XJ (308) Vanden Plas. This car has been extremely well maintained and is current on all maintenance, including new spark plugs, fuel filter, air filter, oil change, serpentine belt, 4-wheel alignment, breather system cleaning and injection system cleaning. Within the last 500 miles the following work has been performed: all four shocks were replaced, new General Altimax 225/60R16 tires, coolant crossover piper (coolant flushed), transmission completely overhauled (valve body rebuilt, reinforced front drum which is the weak point in these transmissions, factory pentosin fluid used), headliner reupholstered, several pieces of wood veneer sent out for sun cracking repair, new battery, new trunk struts, new floor mats. This car does not have the problematic nikasil engine, only steel lined engines were used in 2003. This engine came from the factory with the last revision timing components, the earlier generation tensioners were prone to failure. This car has a beautiful and somewhat rare color combination. Factory Alpine sound system with recently replaced rear subwoofer. There is some wear on the driver seat leather as to be expected from a 11 year old car, the center console leather has some wear however I have a replacement piece of leather that will be installed prior to sale. There are no warning lights or performance issues, this car drives as it did from the day it left the factory. Current high end luxury cars would be hard pressed to drive as nice as this car. I would not hesitate to drive this car anywhere in the country. Buyer will be responsible to arrange shipping or pick up. I have car listed locally and reserve the right to cancel the auction early if it sells here. This vehicle has no warranty, expressed or implied. Thank you for looking!

2014 Jaguar XFR-S is the power and the fury

Thu, 29 Nov 2012

If there's something wrong about a sedan with a 550-horsepower supercharged V8, we don't want to hear about it. Instead, we want to marvel at the car in person, which is fortuitous because Jaguar has officially unveiled the 2014 XFR-S at the 2012 LA Auto Show. That blown 5.0-liter V8 dishes up a full 502 pound-feet of torque, which is good enough to shuttle the four-door to 60 mph in a scant 4.4 seconds. And, thanks to a start stop system and a few other fuel-saving tricks, the 2014 XFR-S gets away without being hit by the gas guzzler tax.
That's all good news, but we're just as excited about the fact that engineers managed to crank up the vehicle's chassis stiffness by a ludicrous 30 percent. Stiffer dampers and springs also give the car a little more poise, and a wide-open exhaust lets the whole world know you're kicking down their door. You know, in case the electric blue paint and wild body work didn't tip your hand. Check out the full gallery above for a closer look.

Jay Leno drives the Jaguar F-Type Project 7

Tue, Sep 22 2015

Even for Jay Leno, Monterey Car Week is a special experience. After all, his collection is absolutely massive, but vehicles show up for this exclusive event on the California peninsula that even Jay doesn't know about. He's giving us a just a tiny taste of this year's event in the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage. The majority of this clip is dedicated to an in-depth look at the Jaguar F-Type Project 7, and Jay gets the details direct from designer Ian Callum. The two of them are old friends after doing the 2014 Mille Miglia together in a Jaguar XK120. After getting a mountain of info about the inspiration behind this special F-Type, they go for a ride on some beautiful California roads to listen to the wonderful, crackling exhaust. Following the drive, Jay finds a racecar from the teens that he is completely unfamiliar with. Thankfully, the mechanic is nearby to shed some light on this rarity. We hope there're more videos to come about Leno's visit to Monterey Car Week, but hopefully his team can fix some of the sound issues in this clip.
