1991 CLASSIC XJ6 Jaguar for sale. This is the hard to find Sovereign model, not the more common Vanden Plas. 133xxx original miles. In fact, of the 487 jaguars listed for sale on Ebay at the time of this posting, only two are Sovereigns. I am the third owner of this Sovereign and have driven this jag back and forth to work (50 miles/day) for the past 15 months or so. No problems. Never overheats. No leaks. No uncommon engine noises. No interior rattles. Air and heat works good. Drive train, exhaust, engine - no problems. This jaguar has a unique "sport" button on the center console that reconfigures the rpms and torque for fast get-aways. This will certainly squeel some rubber and turn some heads!
Classic black color with tan leather interior. Lots of chrome - grille, door handles, etc. No rust on the exterior. Tires have a lot of tread, probably 65 percent or so. This model is the one the Queen of England rides around in in the movies! There were only 57,000 Sovereign models made. NADA classifies this car as a "classic" and you can find its value as around $12000 for excellent, $7500 for good to very good, and $5500 for "fair" condition. I would classify this jag as "good" for the simple fact that it needs a professional buff to bring out the color on the top and trunk. The body is in very good condition with only one or two very minor dings on one side and a small blemish on the hood.
There are a few things that do not work on the car: The intermittant wiper works but not properly, the front fog lights I removed because they really dated the car (the wiring harness and bracket are still in place), the power locks do not work (needs new actuators), the little hydraulic lifts in the trunk have lost most of their spunk, an exterior light somewhere is not shining brightly enough which has caused an "idiot" light on the dash to show (little picture of a bulb), the driver's retractable shoulder strap is not working consistantly, the headliner is loose in the very back. Other than that . . . things are in good shape. I have spent several dollars in the past 18 months on these things: new brakes and rotors all around, new gas valve, new fuel pump, new power steering hoses and refill, new head gasket (was leaking), new oil valve (was leaking), new heater brushes and cleaning.
The car has no oil leaks and runs good. I have 5 cars (3 too many) and am just reducing inventory. It is a fun car to drive. I always wanted a jaguar, so I bought this one off an old fellow who had driven it for several years. It has a milage ALLOWANCE for relatively low miles for this age.
The price is right with a low starting bid and NO RESERVE. Hope you win!

Jaguar's first-ever Super Bowl ad to feature F-Type Coupe
Sun, 10 Nov 2013Patrons of this year's Los Angeles Auto Show will be able to get their first glimpse at the new Jaguar F-Type Coupe, but the new hardtop sports car will be shown off to an even greater audience in early February. No, we aren't talking about the Chicago Auto Show - we're referring to the Super Bowl. Jaguar will debut its first-ever Super Bowl ad during the second half of the big game on February 2, 2014, and the sleek new F-Type Coupe will be the star.
According to Jaguar, the ad campaign will pose the question, "Have you ever noticed how in Hollywood movies, all the villains are played by Brits?" And for all you social media mavens out there, Jaguar will launch a specific hashtag to go with this marketing: #GoodToBeBad.
British director Tom Hooper is responsible for the ad, which is being filmed in London. Americans will get their first glimpse at the campaign this weekend in the first spot, called Disruptor, but the big F-Type Coupe spot will not air until Super Bowl XLVIII in February.
2014 Jaguar XFR-S super sedan is 550-HP worth of cool
Wed, 28 Nov 2012The 2014 Jaguar XFR-S was considered last year, teased last week and now has been totally let loose. The most powerful sedan the company has ever made and the newest addition to its line of R-S performance cars - following the XKR-S - and we'll be getting even fewer of them than we thought. 200 had been the rumored allotment for the US, but the official word now is that we'll see just 100.
Each XFR-S will use the same 5.0-liter supercharged V8 that powers the XKR-S, meaning a 40-horsepower and 41-pound-foot bump over the XFR for 550 hp and 502 lb-ft in total. Shifting through the adaptive, eight-speed ZF transmission gets it from standstill to 60 mph in 4.4 seconds, but for all that, it gets the same gas mileage as the XFR, aided by its stop/start system, and so doesn't get hit with a gas guzzler tax.
Other XKR-S bits have made the jump, including an upgraded suspension front and rear, the near-straight pipes for the cracking exhaust note we drank up like ambrosia and twenty-inch, six-spoke lightweight wheels that are an inch wider than on the XFR. Lateral stiffness is up 30 percent, the electronic systems have been recalibrated to handle the extra oomph, throttle response has been sharpened and can be made even sharper by going into Dynamic Mode.
Jaguar Land Rover undergoes $3.2 billion turnaround plan as sales slump
Thu, Nov 1 2018MUMBAI — India's Tata Motors on Wednesday announced a turnaround plan for its luxury car unit Jaguar Land Rover, which has been hit hard by trade tensions between China and the U.S., low demand for diesel cars in Europe and worries over Brexit. Under "Project Charge," Tata Motors said it plans to cut costs and improve cash flows at Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) by 2.5 billion pounds ($3.2 billion) over 18 months. JLR also plans to launch several new vehicles, including the Jaguar I-Pace and the new Range Rover Defender over the next few years and will offer a hybrid or full-electric version of all its models by 2020. "Together with our ongoing product offensive and calibrated investment plans, these efforts will lay the foundations for long-term sustainable growth," JLR CEO Ralf Speth said after Tata Motors reported a quarterly loss. JLR has trimmed its pre-tax profit expectations for the current fiscal year ending March 31, 2019, and expects to break even, Speth said, versus an earlier target of profit growth. As part of the turnaround plan, JLR will first focus on cash-saving "quick wins" like reducing non-product investments and speeding up asset sales, Tata Motors said in an investor presentation. In the near term it will improve efficiency in areas including purchasing and material cost, manufacturing, logistics and people, and will focus on strategic and non-core asset sales. JLR has already reduced the number of production days at its UK plants in Castle Bromwich and Solihull. The company said in its presentation it has saved 300 million pounds since it initiated the turnaround plan six weeks ago and is working on 500 ideas for the future. Tata Motors reported a loss of 10.49 billion rupees ($141.9 million) for the July-September quarter, compared with a profit of 24.83 billion rupees in the year-ago period. That was worse than the estimate of a loss of 2.40 billion rupees, according to Refinitiv data. JLR reported a loss of 101 million pounds during the quarter and its margin on earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) fell 130 basis points to 9.9 percent. Retail sales of its Jaguar sedans and Land Rover sport utility vehicles (SUVs) fell 13.2 percent to about 130,000 units, hurt particularly by tariff changes in China and escalating trade tensions. Demand in China remained muted even after the country cut import tariffs for cars and car parts to 15 percent for most vehicles from 25 percent from July.
