I'm an old test driver for Jaguar and I fell in love with this model when I was testing them, so I bought one and I have NOT been disappointed.  I'd keep this great car if it wasn't for a divorce and the fact that I could use the money!  I've worked out most of the bugs it had over the years, and it's better now than ever.  I've hand rubbed the British Racing Green paint, it still shines nice, not perfect, but, it's still mostly stunning overall. No dings on the left side, a couple on the right that could be repaired by paintless dent repair.  There's a small paint rub off on the left "c" pillar. The front valence has a crack on the right side way down low that isn't noticeable, I lived with it. The steering rack has a leak. The right fog and headlight have cracks, but still work.  The A/C has a very slow leak, but, I'm going to try to resolve that this week. The clock doesn't light up. The vent louvers on the dash and in the rear are broken, but, I have a good replacement for the dash that you can have. The Harmon-Kardon subwoofer has a rattle that goes away when you lay a towel on it. The rear side skirt next to the bumper is slightly low, but, not noticeable. The drivers seat bottom has some fine cracks, but, you don't notice that when you're sitting on it, driving this awesome car!  I'm pointing out these things so that there are no surprises. The tires still have approximately 40-50% tread left. I wouldn't hesitate to take this car across the country and back as it sits today.  The computer won't log the data for emissions testing. There are no check engine lights on. I have one key. The suspension, motor and transmission all operate as they should, and this straight six with the blower on it pulls like a very smooth freight train!  When testing these, we would put 350,000+ miles on them!  I clocked 167mph in one of these, without the rev limiter, on a test track, when I worked for Jag!  I've probably made this car sound worse than it actually is, just to be safe.  I'd love to keep it, but, time marches on.  Someone is going to get a GREAT deal on a GREAT car.  I've babied this thing, you can even have the car cover that I keep it under in the garage!  Jag enthusiasts consider this model to be the best Jag ever, and I have to agree.  My loss is your gain.  You can call me at six, zero, two, six, two, two, two, two, nine, five. No reserve!  Bid early, and bid often with confidence!  Good luck.

Jay Leno gets reacquainted with the Bertone Pirana

Mon, Mar 16 2015

Jay Leno gets all manner of vehicles stopping by his garage – some more rare than others, but this one is an entirely unique creation unearthed from another time. It's the Pirana, a one-off commissioned by a British newspaper in the late Sixties that we actually found listed on eBay a few years back. It was built atop a Jaguar E-Type, but with custom bodywork designed by Marcello Gandini and crafted by Bertone. The result looks like a Maserati Ghibli or Lamborghini Espada of the same era, but actually came out just before either, previewing the Italian exotics that would follow from Gandini's pen and Bertone's carrozzeria. The Pirana is now undergoing a complete restoration to bring it back to the original condition in which it appeared at the 1967 London Motor Show, but before the process is complete, Leno shows us around and takes it out on the open road to relive memories of a relic from a bygone era.

Jaguar releases C-X75 concept build story

Thu, 27 Jun 2013

If you want to know what was going through the minds of decisionmakers at Jaguar when the company decided to build the batty C-X75 Concept, look no further than the quick video after the jump. Jaguar set about building a car with the performance of a Bugatti Veyron, the electric range of a Chevrolet Volt and the emissions of a Toyota Prius, and they turned to a legendary engineering firm to help make it happen. Williams, the same crew behind Williams F1, helped Jaguar stitch the concept car together, and the result is unlike anything we've seen before.
The twin-charged 1.6-liter four-cylinder mounted amidship is paired with an electric motor at each wheel for a combined output of over 850 horsepower. And, since the whole chassis is hewn from carbon fiber, a production version would've been light enough to give machines like the McLaren P1 and Ferrari LaFerrari a run for their money. Shame they apparently couldn't make the business case work. Watch the concept build story in the video below for yourself.

Weekly Recap: Automakers rethink the definition of luxury

Sat, Jan 17 2015

Variety is the spice of life, but it's becoming a prerequisite for luxury carmakers in the ultra-competitive US market. The Detroit Auto Show was strong evidence of this reality. It's not enough to offer attractive and well-appointed cars and SUVs anymore. Luxury brands that want to be competitive need to invest in everything from high-powered supercars to clever hybrids. To be relevant, you need to be green and mean – and everything in between. As General Motors product chief Mark Reuss said after the reveal of the 640-horsepower Cadillac CTS-V: "We are not leaving anything on the table." He was speaking for Cadillac, but he might as well have been speaking for the luxury car market. The CTS-V debuted in Detroit about an hour after Lexus surprised showgoers with the reveal of the RC F GT3 race car and then announced ambitious plans to return to competitive racing. That almost overshadowed the fact Lexus had just revealed another potent addition to its growing F line, the 467-hp GS F. View 20 Photos But for luxury brands, it's not just about maximum horsepower for well-heeled enthusiasts or decadent amenities for the Grey Poupon set. Strong competition from all corners has forced automakers to refine and expand their lineups in ways unforeseen even a few years ago. Case in point: Mercedes-Benz finally has an answer to the BMW X6, rolling out the GLE coupe in Detroit. The X6, which blends coupe-like styling cues with some of the functionality of an SUV, debuted in 2008. Back then it was a punchline, but seven years and more than 260,000 sales later, the X6's success has compelled Benz to respond. Mercedes – one of the strongest proponents of diesel technology – also debuted the C350 plug-in hybrid sedan, which promises a range of 20 miles on electricity, though fuel economy figures were not announced. The car pairs Mercedes' well-received 208-hp turbocharged four-cylinder with an electric motor for total output of 275 hp and 443 pound-feet of torque. Meanwhile, Infiniti will add the Q30 hatchback to its lineup by the end of the year, new president Roland Kruger reiterated in Detroit. It's expected to be joined by a crossover variant, and the additions will help strengthen Infiniti in the United States and abroad. "While we're expanding our product line, we're also expanding our market reach," he said. That's something echoed by Jaguar executives, who are preparing to launch the brand's first crossover, the F-Pace, in 2016.
