Finally, vehicle is BACK UP FOR SALE ! I am selling for a friend.
Earlier I stopped the auction because owner didn't have title. Since car is registered and owned in the State of Maine, they DO NOT ISSUE a title for any car older than 1995. This 1987 Jaguar XJ6 will come with a BILL OF SALE , CURRENT MAINE REGISTRATION , and a letter from the State of Maine to give to the division of motor vehicles and title and register in YOUR STATE. Now, The car- This car is owned by a Florida snowbird. They sold their Florida home and no longer have need for the car. The car has not had much use in the last few years. Needs to be driven more and enjoyed again ! THEIR LOSS , YOUR GAIN ! SOLD TO FIRST COME FIRST SERVE ! I can not store car any longer ! MAKE AN OFFER, but PLEASE don't insult me.. I've been in possession of the car for a few weeks now. Here are the things I noticed wrong with the car. But please keep in mind I am NO EXPERT, and I know nothing about Jaguars.. FIRST, THE NOT SO GOOD: -Car idles rough when first started, for about 20 seconds. Then it runs perfect. I wiggled some plug wires when it was idling rough, and it seemed to change the rough idle. My guess is it needs a new distributor cap and wires. -While in car and idling, I could hear a faint tapping I thought was coming from engine or passenger side. I traced it to the actual fuel rail and line going to back of car. When I grabbed the line behind rear tire, I could actually feel it tapping in my hand. So the tapping must be the fuel pump ? -A/C does not get cold. I checked fuses and the basics, and all seems fine. Owner said it worked last summer. Possibly lost a charge due to it sitting. Not sure. Blower and controls work fine. -Car has 2 gas tanks. 1 sending unit for gas gauge does not work (passenger side tank). The gas tank works and all, but you can't tell if its full or empty. I went to fill the tank thinking it was empty, and its full. Guess it would make a good backup tank :) -Oil pressure gauge on dash doesn't show a reading. Either the gauge is bad, or a bad sending unit. -Exterior : Car has good paint, but not great. There is a noticeable clearcoat issue on hood (SEE PICS). Right above rear passenger tire, there is a small ding. Normal paint chips here and there for this age car. Some areas of clearcoat have a 'webbing' or hairline scratching. -Interior : front floor mats need replaced. Some light cracking in faux wood on dash. Front seats not ripped but have some stitching missing and show wear NOW THE GOOD !: -Exterior- All chrome parts are near perfect condition. All windows work 100% . Sunroof opens as should. Exterior motorized radio antenna works 100%. hood and trunk work 100%. Doors shut solid. -Interior: Headliner had been replaced, still good. New upper dash. Radio works (don't have a tape to test cassette tape deck). All other knobs and buttons seem to work. Electric drivers seat works. -Engine: Runs good. No unusual noises from motor. Transmission shifts smooth and the car rides down the road great. Has not used oil or left a spot in my driveway or garage either ! Hoses, brake lines, etc. are all in good shape. -The car just, looks, good !! I already have 3 vehicles. I'd keep it myself but have no room ! -I have a lot of paperwork with the car. Including a parts manual and service manual. MANY service records and repair records (probably all of them) since new, even the original window sticker. -according to paperwork, It had new shocks, A/C converted to new coolant, water pump, shocks, brakes and exhaust all have been done within the last 30k miles. Well, that's all I got. Please check out the 2 videos I took of the car running Below! ALSO LISTED LOCALLY ! WILL NOT SHIP and MUST BE PICKED UP WITHIN 2 WEEKS OF AUCTION END ! ** SOLD AS IS CONDITION- NO WARRANTY EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED- vehicle described to best of my knowledge ** |

Jos? Mourinho shares his fear in Jaguar F-Type R Coupe spot
Fri, 09 May 2014Jaguar is in the middle of an image makeover. It wants people to know that it makes more than just big, comfy luxury cars. Underneath that there is an edge. In its recent ads, the company wants to be associated with a more tailored, witty form of villainy. The next step is showing that it's also fearless.
Many Americans might not be familiar with José Mourinho, but he's one of the premier soccer, or football, coaches in the world. He's nicknamed "The Special One." Mourinho worked his way up from an assistant coach to lead small teams but eventually took over international heavyweights like Real Madrid and Chelsea.
In a new ad for the Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, Mourinho talks about what it means to be afraid. You might think such successful people overcome their fears, but successful men are driven it, he claims. But being scared doesn't make a man weak - it makes him dangerous. Scroll down to understand what Mourinho is talking about and get an earful from the wonderful exhaust of the R Coupe.
Watch a Jaguar F-Type R drag a parachute at 186 mph
Mon, Jun 15 2015With carbon-ceramic brakes on offer, the Jaguar F-Type R Coupe can shed off speed even faster than it can rack it up. Even the standard steel rotors do a pretty good job of it. But what would happen if you deployed a parachute out the back of the Jag at 186 miles per hour, like you might with a drag racer? That's what the British automaker has found out in this latest video. And just why would they do such a thing, you ask? Because Bloodhound, that's why. Jaguar is providing technical support to the Bloodhound SSC land speed record attempt, and one of the roles into which the F-Type has been pressed is to check the parachute that will (along with the air brakes and rotors) form an integral part of the jet- and rocket-powered vehicle's run. To make sure the chute would do its job, the team put Royal Air Force pilot Andy Green behind the wheel of the specially equipped F-Type at the RAF air base in Bentwaters, Suffolk, UK, had him speed down the runway up to the car's top speed and deploy the chute. Fortunately, as you can see from the minute-long clip, everything seemed to have gone according to plan – though we're not sure about the logic behind the assertion that if "it worked at 180, it will definitely work at a thousand miles an hour."

The jet and rocket powered car, which aims to surpass the current record of 763.035mph before targeting 1000mph, has multiple braking systems including air-brakes ('doors' mounted on the side of the car which open to increase aerodynamic drag) and disc brakes (used when slowing down from 200mph).
Thieves stole $3.7 million worth of Jaguar Land Rover engines
Fri, Feb 3 2017This past Tuesday was not a good one for Jaguar Land Rover. According to British news source Birmingham Mail, just over $3.7 million worth of engines were stolen from the company's factory in Solihull, England. Reportedly, the thieves drove up to the facility in a stolen semi-truck, found a trailer full of engines, hooked it up, and drove off. The thieves did this twice in one night, with the same truck, and got the first trailer in just six minutes. Perhaps more shocking is that Birmingham Mail reports this is the second time a theft of this type has occurred at the facility. The previous time happened in almost exactly the same way, but the engines taken were valued at just over $1.2 million, and five people were convicted of the crime. Currently, local police are looking for the latest suspects and the engines. The trailers were found, but were empty. We got in touch with a Jaguar representative who provided us the company's official statement: "We can confirm that we are working closely with West Midlands Police to investigate the theft of engines from the Solihull manufacturing plant. A reward is on offer to anyone who has information which leads to the successful recovery of these engines. It would be inappropriate for us to make any further comment whilst this investigation is ongoing." This was the only statement he would provide, and didn't provide answers as to what engines were stolen and if there would be any impact on manufacturing or vehicle deliveries. But if you're in the UK, and you've got a tip, let the cops know.
