 The iconic and sleek series III Jaguar XJ6 is considered by many to be one of the great sedan designs. Low slung with beautifully balanced proportions and lines, this car is a pleasure to behold. This particular car is in very good condition, with a recent respray in its original Burgundy, Dayton wire wheels and nice tan leather interior. It runs and drives well and gets looks everywhere it goes.

Body:
The body is straight with only a few very minor dings and chips. The paint is a good quality respray that is even, consistent and glossy. The chrome and brightwork is in very good condition, including the bumpers. There are two areas where the windshield meets the cowl where there is some rust bubbling under the paint. Other than that, the car is very rust free with solid rockers and floorpans. The glass is in good condition and nicely tinted windows add to car's sleek appearance. The authentic Dayton wire wheels are in good condition but the rear wheels have some flaking clear coat. Combined with chrome knock-offs, they give the car an even more classic look. The tires are matching Goodyear Assurance radials with lots of tread depth.

Interior:
The interior is in solid shape with very nice door panels. The front seats have some seam splitting while the back seats are very nice. The dash has a few cracks. The wood fascia appears nice but has some checking. Switch gear, gauges, and lights work correctly. The car has a CD player and all power window work except for the passenger side rear window. The headliner is not torn but is a little tired looking with some sagging. The power sunroof works correctly. There is a set of factory owner's manuals, factory jack, and an incomplete factory tool kit included with the car.

Mechanicals:
This car runs and drives well. The engine is strong and healthy and was rebuilt 54,000 miles ago. The transmission was also recently adjusted to shift smoother and all hoses and the brakes reconditioned. It starts and idles well though it has an intermittent hot idle issue; when this happens, the car will still start easily, but the idle will bog down and sometimes stall. This does not affect the drivability of the car. The transmission shifts well. The brakes function properly and have good pedal feel and response. The AC does not currently work, though the system is complete and intact.

Overall:
This Jaguar is quite beautiful, and as a 10-footer, gives the appearance of a fully restored classic. It runs and drives well and is great to cruise around in. It could be enjoyed as is and driven regularly, or with a little TLC could be made into an excellent example.

Jaguar F-Type SVR and Range Rover Evoque Convertibles go rainbow for Pride

Sat, Jun 29 2019

BMW isn't the only automobile company getting involved in Pride Week, as Jaguar Land Rover announced it also has cars that will participate. And yes, they're convertibles with rainbow stripes. On Sunday, June 30, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) will participate in the NYC Pride March with several themed vehicles and employees walking next to them. JLR chose two of its most intriguing vehicles in the Jaguar F-Type SVR convertible and the Range Rover Evoque Convertible. Jaguar unveiled two different F-Type SVRs, one in a gorgeous blue and the other in white. Both cars have the same detailing, though, including rainbow stripes on the the sides, rear bumpers, and hoods. The F-Types also have rainbow stripes across the tops of their windshields, and "JAG YOU ARE" decals across the windshields and rear bumpers. The silver Evoque is only slightly different. It, too, has rainbow stripes across its doors, rear bumper, and windshield. Rather than a "JAG YOU ARE" decal, however, "EVOQUE" is spread across the front bumper in rainbow lettering. You can check out these unique models at the Pride parade in NYC.

Here's the 2021 Jaguar F-Type reveal with Hot Wheels

Mon, Dec 2 2019

UPDATE: The car has been shown in full. You can check out all the details in our reveal post here. The collaboration with Hot Wheels sprouted the reveal video that you can find above. Jaguar and Hot Wheels built a 761-foot long course with 44 corners in the Jaguar design studio. You can see the F-Type Hot Wheels cars go around it before meeting the life-size F-Type at the end. There’s a new Jaguar F-Type coming today, and the show is bound to be worth watching. Jaguar is revealing the sports car at 3 p.m. ET, and itÂ’s being done in partnership with Hot Wheels. We all know how dramatic and wild Jaguar reveals can be from its previous stunts. With Hot Wheels as a partner, this F-Type presentation is bound to be quite the show.  If youÂ’d like to see the latest teaser from Jaguar for the F-Type, check out our post here. The Hot Wheels loop-do-loop stunt is teased out, and we get a short glimpse of the car itself.  Spy shots have made it out to be mightily similar to the current generation of F-Type from a design standpoint, but thereÂ’s nothing wrong with that. Standby for a reveal soon. Jaguar F-Type Convertible 3 View 28 Photos

2014 Jaguar XFR-S Sportbrake is one hot hauler

Wed, 05 Mar 2014

Oh look, another super-hot wagon that won't be making its way to the US. Awesome.
Actually, in all honesty, it really is awesome. Meet the Jaguar XFR-S Sportbrake, a red-hot (or blue-hot?) version of the rakish XF wagon that originally bowed at the Geneva Motor Show back in 2012. The formula here is pretty much plug-and-play: take the 5.0-liter supercharged V8 from the XFR-S and shove it in the wagon body, and add all of the necessary visual flair fitting of a properly powerful Jag. The end result is an estate that packs 542 horsepower, 502 pound-feet of torque, and the ability to sprint to 60 miles per hour in a scant 4.6 seconds. Meow.
This Jaguar joins a growing segment of ultra-hot wagons in Europe, rounded out by offerings like the Audi RS6 Avant and the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG longroof - the latter of which you can actually buy in North America. Sounds like the sort of comparison test we'd love to facilitate. Guess we'll have to leave that to our friends at Autocar, though.
