I picked this car up as a project, but am unable to continue with it. The car is a redo. Originally a California car. Rare Solent Blue color. Had a respray at some point, and lost the vinyl top in the process. The body does have some bubbling at the lower edges of the doors and front wings. Also some rust in the usual places. A respray would be in order. Biscuit interior is original, but needs replacing, as does the carpet. Dash has been restained, but should be replaced. Headliner is good. The engine has had twin downdraft Webers installed at some point. The car runs, but at this time I would not recommend driving it for any distance, as the engine stumbles occasionally under acceleration. Engine and transmission should be gone through. The odometer reads about 35,000 miles, but I have no way to verify the actual mileage. Tires are good, with original steel wheels. Original Stromberg carbs included, as are many other trim items and other parts. The car has had both fuel tanks replaced by me with NOS tanks, brakes redone with new pads, rear rotors and master cylinder replaced. The car is original, and intact. It is a great candidate for a restoration or a restomod. This was the last year for the limited run for the XJC, and this car's color makes it all the more rare. Buyer is responsible for inspecting the car prior to bidding. The vehicle is sold as is where is, without warranty, no warranty expressed or implied. Payment in full is due within five working days from completion of auction. Payment is by Cashier's Check, or PayPal, in U.S. dollars only. Buyer pays all shipping/transport fees. Car is currently licensed, but should be considered as a project, and transported, not driven, to buyer's destination. 1979 XJ12L parts car also available.

Jaguar Land Rover puts the freeze on wounded soldier-athletes [w/video]
Mon, 21 Jul 2014For athletes, the cold is often a powerful ally in treating injures, with RICE (rest, ice, compression and elevation) a popular means of treating muscle pulls, bruising and other common forms of discomfort. Did you know, though, that frosty temps are also popular tools for simply recovering from a rough training session?
Well, we're guessing Jaguar Land Rover knew that, as the British company was kind enough to loan out its climactic testing chamber to Jaco van Gass and Luke Darlington, a pair of veterans wounded in their service to Queen and Country. Van Gass, a former private in the Royal Army, and Darlington, a Royal Marine, are attempting to earn a spot on the British Armed Forces cycling team for the upcoming Invictus Games.
The Games, inspired by the Warrior Games held in the United States, are a sporting competition reserved for injured servicemen and women, either active duty or veterans, and is slated to take place from September 10 to 14 in London's former Olympic venues. Van Gass lost his left arm below the elbow after getting hit by a rocket-propelled grenade (he also suffered from a collapsed lung, punctured internal organs, severe shrapnel and blast wounds, a broken tibia and a fractured knee). Darlington, meanwhile, suffered a traumatic brain injury during action in Afghanistan, and he now suffers from weakness in his right side and cognitive issues.
Motor Trend pits Aston V12 Vantage S against Jaguar XKR-S GT in battle of the Brits
Fri, 20 Dec 2013With the recent increase in higher-performance versions of already high-performance vehicles, like Mercedes-Benz and its AMG Black Series, the public is now gaining even greater access to speed and maneuverability. Two of the most recent sports cars to get their wicks turned up include the Jaguar XKR-S GT and the Aston Martin V12 Vantage S.
Both of these cars are the pinnacles of their lines, with the Jag lording over the XKR-S, XKR and XK while the Aston rules over the standard V8 Vantage S and V8 Vantage. Motor Trend has opted to pit the two rivals together for some thorough testing, and it just happened to bring along a few video cameras to capture all the action.
There's nearly 19 minutes of super hot sports car action below, so scroll down and enjoy.
Jaguar F-Type Project 7 takes the D-Type to the 21st Century
Sat, 16 Aug 2014One of the many big name debuts during the 2014 Monterey car week is this, the Jaguar F-Type Project 7, a stunning roadster inspired by Jaguar's legendary, finned D-Type sports car.
The Project 7 expands on the already appealing F-Type Convertible formula, further boosting the Jaguar Land Rover 5.0-liter, supercharged V8 to its most potent form yet - 575 horsepower - making this the most powerful production Jag in history. So equipped, the Project 7 is more cheetah than jaguar, roaring to 60 miles per hour in a rapid 3.8 seconds before reaching its electronically limited peak speed of 186 miles per hour.
Prices for the F-Type Project 7 start at $165,000, with customer deliveries slated begin in spring of 2015.
