1990 Jaguar Xj6 Sovereign Sedan 4-door 4.0l on 2040-cars
Concord, North Carolina, United States
This is a very nice mechanically and bodily sound all original no rust 24 year old Jaguar that still continues to amaze people on its condition. There is an acid rain blemish on the hood and the right rear door has a ding that has been painted. I am a Jaguar enthusiast and member of the JCNA and can be very anal about the condition of my Jaguars. Within the last two years this XJ6 has had all four brake rotors replaced with Centric Rotors and all disc pads replaced with EBC red stuff brake pads. All fluids have been drained and flushed including the differential and transmission, the problematic self leveling suspension has been replaced with standard springs and new Bogue shocks and mounts. Both front shock mounts have been renewed together with the two rear sub frame bushings. All five tires were renewed with Falken ZIEX ZE-912 in the plus zero size of 215/65R-15 in February 2013. The drivers side heater/air blower motor has been replaced, and the R12 refrigerant renewed,yes cold air-conditioning, distributor cap, rotor,plug leads and spark plugs are all upgraded and new. The high pressure hydraulic hose from the steering pump to the steering rack is new, the fuel pump and filter are new along with the EGR valve and oxygen sensor All systems are working mechanical and electrical, however, although I have replaced the oil pressure sensor twice( it reads 40 psi ) the instrument gauge is still not working correctly, but all is well. The in-line DOHC 6 cylinder Jaguar engine is the best and virtually indestructible, treated to premium gas and 20w-50 Castrol oil and filter changes every 3000 miles it should last up to 300,000 miles before a real inspection is required. This engine loves to be driven and will cruise all day long at 75mph and return about 23/24 miles per gallon, I am only selling because I have my eye on a 1994 XJ40 V12. I will throw in a set of 4 Dayton wire wheels that are good but need some refinishing. This vehicle is sold as is where is with no warranty expressed or implied buyer must arrange pick up |

Jaguar Land Rover may build factory in Saudi Arabia
Tue, 11 Dec 2012The Middle East is one of the fastest-growing markets for Land Rover, so it makes sense that the automaker is looking to set up shop in the region. According to Automotive News, Jaguar Land Rover is in talks with the people of Saudi Arabia to build a factory in the country at an expected initial cost of $1.2 billion. Still in the early stage of talks, the proposed facility could start up by 2017 using locally sourced materials such as steel and aluminum.
Such an arrangement could be beneficial for both entities as Saudi Arabia looks to diversify its oil-reliant economy and Land Rover could get local production capacity of around 50,000 units. The report also says that the agreement talks about the possibility for Jaguar models to be built at the same plant further down the road.
This won't be the first vehicle produced in Saudi Arabia - that honor goes to the KSU Gazal-1 - but it will be the first from a major global automaker.
Jaguar Land Rover backs Arc startup that sells $100,000 electric motorcycles
Wed, Nov 7 2018Before it even put its first motorcycle on the road, new startup Arc reeled in a major player to back its ambitious product plan. In conjunction with the reveal of the fully electric Vector superbike at the Esposizione Internazionale Ciclo Motociclo e Accessori ( EICMA) show in Milan, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) announced it is placing capital in Arc, using JLR's investment company InMotion Ventures. Arc claims the Vector is the first all-electric motorcycle with integrated Human Machine Interface (HMI) to come to market. Arc, not to be confused with Keanu Reeve's Arch motorcycle company, has a pretty typical mission statement: "To use progressive design and technology to transform people's relationship with an automative experience. For us, for you, for our planet." At the core, Arc wants to make connected, clean, exclusive superbikes, and the Vector is its first try. Although Arc didn't get into the nitty gritty details about the make-up of the bike, it did give some surface specs and information. The bike's structure is built using a carbon composite to create a "unique Arc battery monocoque." Weight is also kept low using carbon fiber swing arms. There is no mention of the size or type of electric powertrain, but Arc claims it will have a highway range of about 120 miles or a city range of 170 miles on a single charge. Arc says it will be able to sprint from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 2.7 seconds and has a top speed of 124 mph. Stopping power comes from a Brembo brake system, while ride and handling relies on Ohlins dampers. The launch does not stop at the motorcycle, but includes gear, as well. The Vector links up with a jacket and a helmet for a fully connected experience. Partnering with U.K.-based impact protection design company Knox, Arc created the Arc Pilot System. Using audio, the armored Origin riding jacket provides haptic feedback based on numerous riding inputs to help keep the driver safe and aware. Furthermore, Arc linked up with luxury helmet maker Hedon to build the WiFi-connected Zenith helmet that houses an integrated projection heads-up display. In addition to showing things such as speed or battery life of the bike, the helmet uses a built-in rear camera to display other vehicles in the rider's blind spots. The rider can command the system using controls on the bike or via voice commands.
Highlights from the Goodwood Festival of Speed, including the McLaren P1 and a Ford Transit running the hill
Mon, 15 Jul 2013The sole purpose of this post is as a time-waster, and since you shouldn't have to work to waste time, we've done it for you. In the numerous videos below you'll find cars that have lately been in the news tramping all over the grounds of Lord March's estate in Goodwood, England.
There's the McLaren P1 heading up the hill, the Jaguar Project 7, then a casually-driven Porsche 917 followed by an even-more-casually-driven Porsche 956, topped off by a Porsche 936 that is anything but casually driven. The next round is the flame-spitting Peugeot 405 T16 Pikes Peak from Climb Dance, a camera mounted on the Peugeot RCZ R after it showing you what the whole, uninterrupted run up the hill looks like. For a real head-turner, we couldn't embed it but there's Andy Reid blasting up the hill in a Ford Transit Supervan with a Cosworth 3000 V6 engine.
The modern racing contingent has Allan McNish doing the hill in the Audi R18 e-tron quattro he used to win Le Mans and Lewis Hamilton making lots of tire smoke in the Mercedes-AMG Petronas MGP-W02. For comparison, that's followed by Nick Heidfeld's record-setting run up the hill in 1999 in the McLaren MP4/14 . The classic racing contingent is headlined by 71-year-old Giacomo Agostini on an MV Agusta.
