 Jaguar XJ12s of which there are very few (less than 60 made for the US) pop up on eBay once every 6 months or so.

This XJ12 will be for sale once and it is the best of all of them.

Last year of Jaguars infamous V12. Incredibly rare, you will never see another on the road.

This car has ABSOLUTELY NO - leaks, overheating, noises, rattles, tears, stains, wear. Period.

This is a show car, owned and operated by me for the last few years. I collect cars as a hobby and repair cars as a business owner. In fact this car is even on the sign for my auto repair facility, euautoworksmn

Every inch of this car has been inspected, thousands (9-10K to be fairly accurate) in receipts for parts (not counting labour) are pictured in the glove box. Everything and anything that may have been needed was done. This was my personal car and cost was no object as with any of my cars. I built this car to last forever and be endlessly reliable, thus nothing needs to be done.

The only modification I made is the addition of the Lattice wheels at a cost of $2300 or so, and a set of Pirelli P600s at 1K a set. The original 16" Vanden Plas wheels are on a pile with nearly new Michelins on them and are included if desired. Aside from the wheels this car needs no modification. Of all the cars I have owned this car is the closest any manufacturer has come to the perfect sport luxury sedan. Low, Lean, Long, Fast, and on a level all its own for looks.

I added on a set of ultra plush LLoyd floor mats $249 and had a professional tint the windows to 30% like all of my other cars.

The state you see the car in is the state in which I keep it every day, no quick detail and buff right before the pictures. If you look closely the whole car is covered in dust as I haven't driven it in a few weeks. And that is the problem, I don't drive enough to keep this car. They need to be used and I have to many cars to use them all... So all in all this car needs an owner that can enjoy it.

On a final note, this car impresses and honestly looks alot better in person than in pictures. The camera for some reason doesn't convey the low long stance as it looks in person. An absolutely stunning car from any angle or perspective.

Good luck bidding and please relay any questions to me before auction end


You have right to inspect the vehicle or have an inspection carried out at your expense before auction end, not after. If you have questions feel free to ask. If you cannot afford this car or for any other reason cannot smoothly perform this transaction please refrain from bidding. Once the auction is won you have entered a contract to purchase the car. Those are the eBay rules in a nutshell.

Jaguar I-Pace sets Laguna Seca record, virtually matches Tesla Model S P100D

Fri, Aug 24 2018

Jaguar has announced that the I-Pace crossover has set the Laguna Seca lap record for production electric vehicles. With racing driver Randy Pobst behind the wheel, the I-Pace HSE completed a lap in 1 minute and 48.18 seconds. Jaguar was adamant to stress that the record-setting vehicle was bone stock with "no modifications whatsoever." As Jalopnik reports, a bit of a dispute arose about the lap time, as a Tesla Model S P100D is said to have completed a lap in 1 minute, 47.62 seconds. However, the Tesla in question had received brake upgrades, unlike the factory specification Jaguar. The I-Pace's two electric motors are good for a combined 400 horsepower and 513 pound-feet, propelling the SUV to 62 mph in just 4.8 seconds. Jaguar has also released video footage from the Laguna Seca run, above. Look for the slide at the 30-second mark! Pobst must have been enjoying himself, as you can hear him guffawing after the famous Corkscrew section. While this record was all about the prowess of a production EV, there will be a racing series featuring the I-Pace, as the I-Pace eTrophy begins in the fifth season of ABB FIA Formula E.

Jaguar Land Rover UK factories could shut down in two weeks due to coronavirus

Tue, Feb 18 2020

COVENTRY, England — Jaguar Land Rover has enough parts from China to maintain its British production for the next two weeks but not beyond that at the moment, Chief Executive Ralf Speth said on Tuesday. Britain's biggest carmaker, which operate three car factories in its home market, joined major global companies such as Apple in warning of the impact of the virus on supply chains. The rapidly spreading virus has killed nearly 1,900 in China and stricken some 72,000 people, confining millions to their homes, disrupting supply chains and delaying reopening of factories after the extended Lunar New Year holiday break. "We are safe for this week and we are safe for next week and in the third week we have... parts missing," said Speth when asking about the potential impact on British production. He said the firm's Chinese factory would open next week and was "safe for the very first week." Sales were not currently happening in China and it was unclear when they would return, he added. The boss of Tata Motors, JLR's parent company, speaking at the same event, said the company does not have sufficient visibility regarding parts suppliers from China. "We are safe for the month of February and for a good part of March," said Guenter Butschek. "Are we fully covered at this point of time for the full month of March? Unfortunately...not."

Lunaz electrifying classic cars with coachbuilt, millimeter precision

Fri, Oct 11 2019

One day last year, as David Lorenz waited by the side of the road for repair help with his classic car, he had an idea: Why not update all of that ancient mechanical "character" with a modern electric drivetrain? That would give an owner the beauty of the past, the mechanicals of the present, and the powertrain of the future. Jaguar does it with the E-Type Zero, and Aston Martin's in the game with the reversible EV powertrain swap for the DB6 Volante. And so Lorenz founded the British engineering firm Lunaz Design, named after his daughter Luna and headquartered at the Silverstone Technology Park. The company's first products are almost ready for order, starting with a 1953 Jaguar XK120 and a 1961 Rolls-Royce Phantom V. Lunaz conversions aren't a matter of pulling an engine and installing a battery pack; Lunaz reengineers classics. Managing Director Jon Hilton oversees a team bringing experience from carmakers such as Aston Martin, Ferrari, Jaguar, McLaren, and Rolls-Royce, with Hilton's resume including six years with Cosworth Engineering followed by eight years in Formula One. To develop the Lunaz offerings, a chosen car is stripped to the metal and weighed so that engineers understand the weight distribution at each corner, then the car is stripped to the chassis and 3D-scanned. This yields information allowing designers to create a powertrain that fits to the millimeter and stays true to the handling dynamics of the original vehicle. During the rebuild, the company says, any imperfections are remedied "using traditional coachbuilding techniques." The Jaguar and the Rolls-Royce get battery packs in two locations, one under the hood and one under the trunk floor. Lunaz says it can fit more battery for its in-house design into each car that way. The Jaguar's 80-kWh battery feeds two electric motors sending 375 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels. The Phantom V uses a 120-kWh battery pack, but its output hasn't been released. While remaining true to the exterior and interior design of each car, Lunaz fits LED lights and modern tires, a modern suspension, better brakes with regenerative braking, power steering, an upgraded propshaft, and a fly-by-wire throttle. Safety and comfort additions include cruise control, traction control, and anti-lock brakes. Inside, the instrument cluster gets battery gauges, there's modern climate control, an infotainment screen with satellite navigation, and a Wi-Fi hotspot.
