2000 Jaguar XJR 4.0L Supercharged V-8, 370 hp/387 lb.-ft. torque, 0-60 ~5 sec., top speed (electronically limited) 155 mph. This (when new) $70,000 car was the fastest regular production sedan in the world for a couple years until is was eventually dethroned by BMW's M5, but even by contemporary standards hold up quite nicely in the performance department and is by all measure still a luxury rocket. This is a truly special automobile that must be driven and experienced to be appreciated. If you don't already, sliding in behind the wheel and standing on the accelerator will make you feel like a King. I used to have a Porsche 993 Carrera, and this is at least as quick. Unlike most XJRs you will find, I have spent a great deal of money (@$3,500 in the last 18 months) in repairs, upgrades and maintenance. I have all the receipts. This car has no check engine or warning lights. The most important work was the most recent repair which was the upgrade from the Mk II (marginally better than Mk I) series tensioners, to the robust, all-metal tensioners. This was nearly $2k alone and has about 50 miles since this was done. Before that numerous beneath-the-supercharger sensors were replaced, as well as all new ceramic brakes and new cross-drilled, slotted rotors (in the front), and a rebuilt ABS control module with a lifetime warranty. Essentially, during my ownership, this car was my baby. Whatever it needed, it received, and I gave it the best that was available, including service by expertly trained mechanics. I only ever used Castrol fully synthetic oil. The engine runs very strong, and the transmission is the terrific Mercedes-Benz-sourced (as used in their V-8 AMG cars), robustly constructed (essentially bulletproof) 5-speed automatic with J-Gate "Randle Handle" shifter. The car is the most beautiful color available (in my opinion), Carnival Red with Oatmeal Connolly Leather interior. Obviously, it has variable ratio power steering, four-wheel power disc brakes with ABS, power windows, with driver express down, power central locking system with remote entry, automatic climate control (including rear heat & a/c), power tilt/sliding sunroof, dual power heated seats (10-way driver w/ dual memory, and I believe 8-way passenger), rear heated seats, power mirrors, power tilt/telescopic steering wheel, power trunk release, AM/FM Stereo Cassette w/ 6-disc CD changer in trunk & GPS Navigation system, satellite radio antenna wired in, 18" alloy wheels with very good matching tires, traction control, and I have the original factory owners manuals, folder, Nav CD-ROM, original spare, jack, tools and two keys. I can't even think of what else to put at this time. Basically, aside from a few minor flaws, as mentioned in the details section, this is a car that needs nothing. Fly in, drive home. It is a beautiful, impressive car at a stupid-low give away price. The only reason I am selling it is because I originally wanted an XK8/R (convertible) and my wife opined for a sedan, that she subsequently decided she doesn't like to drive so we bought another car that we both like to drive, and I have a host of other cars as well, so something has to go. It has been garaged through my entire ownership and not to be overlooked was a Florida car its whole life until last year when we moved to PA. So the undercarriage is clean and rust-free. It has never seen salt/snow etc. One final detail: I do have a loan on this car, so that will need to be paid off. I have done this before, don't fret it is a piece of cake. I will have bank confirmation for you that they will send you the title. If you are looking for an XJR, this is one of the cheapest ones in the country. And it is NOT a project car, nor is it the '97-9 problematic money eaters. Live life, buy this car, have no regrets! |

2016 Jaguar F-Type R at Monticello | AutoblogVR
Tue, Sep 27 2016This week we indulged in a bit of fun. We took one of our favorite sports cars, the 2016 Jaguar F-Type to Monticello Motor Club north of New York. Senior Editor Greg Migliore selected the 550-horsepower R variant and pushed this Jag to the limit at one of North America's prettiest tracks. He reveled in the supercharged V8's power and sound as he embraced Monticello's curves and long straightaways. Meanwhile, Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski had a similar experience. Kind of. He lapped Monticello in the 2016 Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR and then went off-roading at a challenging course nearby. It's the best of both worlds. He gets to soak in the blown V8 – but also gets to splatter a little mud. Each week, new episodes will launch on the AutoblogVR App. We'll preview them here on Autoblog, but for the full immersive experience, head over to the app, which you can download for free from the App store and Google Play. Be sure to try it with a cardboard viewer, too! Jaguar Land Rover Driving Off-Road Vehicles Videos VR Original Video virtual reality 360video
Jaguar I-Pace makes transition to production with hardly any changes
Fri, Mar 31 2017It looks like Jaguar designer Ian Callum wasn't kidding when he said the I-Pace concept was "a preview of a five-seat production car that will be on the road in 2018." Based on these spy photos, the production I-Pace will look darn near identical to the concept. The prototype seen above, in a unique and rather groovy green camouflage wrap, retains the swoopy cab-forward design of its concept predecessor. The headlights have the same shape and still sweep back nearly to the front wheel wells, and the door handles are still flush mounted ovals placed low on the doors. At the back, the crisp crease marking the trailing edge of the hatch is intact, as well as the triangular points on the rear spoiler. There have been a few minor changes here and there. At the front, the grille doesn't have quite as much depth as the concept, and the base of the front bumper doesn't have as aggressive an air dam. The big heat extractor vent in the hood is also gone. The rear bumper has also been rounded off a bit more with a simpler rear diffuser. The side glass is in production form, so now there are seams that show where the glass rolls down. It appears the rear doors will have quite a small glass opening, as the seam is roughly at the half-way point of the window. If the mechanicals of the concept end up as unchanged as this prototype's exterior, expect the production I-Pace to have a pair of electric motors that will produce 400 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque. Jaguar estimates these will propel the car to 60 mph in about 4 seconds. The motors will be supplied with power from a 90 kWh lithium-ion battery, which Jaguar says will provide a range of 220 miles. With a target date of 2018, we would expect to see the production model revealed at the end of 2017 or early in 2018. Related Video:
2021 Jaguar F-Type Luggage Test | Get away, and look extremely good doing it
Fri, Aug 14 2020Just like the Porsche 911 I performed a luggage test on not too long ago, the 2021 Jaguar F-Type is not a luggage-hauling machine. It’s a sports-car-oriented grand tourer, and it also happens to be stonking fast with a supercharged V8 under the hood. Since the engine is in the front, that leaves the rear trunk for all the cargo coming onboard. Assuming you want to take your F-Type on vacations and longer journeys (you do), the respectably-sized boot will come in handy. Jaguar says the coupe (what weÂ’re testing) has 14.4 cubic feet of space, whereas the convertible just about cuts that space in half with only 7.3 cubes. From a numbers perspective, the Jag just edges out the 911 (13.8 cubic feet of space combined between the frunk and rear seat). However, weÂ’ve learned to never take those numbers at face value. I use different equipment than Riswick does in Portland: Two carry-on suitcases sized (24 inches long, 15.5 wide, 10 deep); one carry-on suitcase (21.7L x 13.7W x 9 D); one medium-size suitcase you have to check (24.5L x 16.8W x 11.5D) and one larger, full-size suitcase (33.8L x 21.5W x 13D). The second full-size suitcase didnÂ’t get the call up, because one look at the luggage compartment was all I needed to know that two of them werenÂ’t going in there. Getting into the luggage compartment is luxurious enough for a Jag. Use the button on the fob, a toggle switch on the interior, or press the button under the lid. ItÂ’s fully powered going up and down, so you can devote all of your bodyÂ’s energy to wrestling the car around corners. The space itself is rather shallow and hindered by a privacy cover that hangs low. YouÂ’ll need to remove that shade to take advantage of the entire space, but we started with it on to see what could fit under it. This F-Type is low, so even though you have to lift things over the rear bumper, itÂ’s not horribly strenuous. I initially slid two of the carry-on suitcases in. Those fit lying flat, but there wasnÂ’t much extra space. To take advantage of what was left, I squeezed in the fancy bag (22L x 8.8W x 12D). With the privacy shade intact, youÂ’re not going to fit any more suitcases than that due to height restrictions. A very shallow item could slide on top of the inboard suitcase, but it would have to be very short. Another configuration I tried showed that the medium suitcase and one carry-on could fit. Additionally, the full-size suitcase also fits if itÂ’s in there alone.
