This is a truly rare eye turner that gets about 4 blown away comments a day here in Maine. It is my daily driver and super reliable. It is inspected in Maine until September and will take another no problem. None and imean none of the old Jaguar fuel line, engine, and electrical problems!!! parts are so cheap now, and i just did the most difficult maintenance on the car by putting all new inbound brakes on rear of the car! This car has a GM TBI fuel injected 350 in it with custom brackets and has vortec headers.the engine was rebuilt 50,000 miles ago and has a fresh oil change.The 400 gm transmission which is standard in these jags was rebuilt 8,000 miles ago. This car is super smooth and solid. The v8 is so much lighter then the v12 that the front end raised 2 inches so custom brackets where put in the rear to raise it two inches. car is super tight, and handles better then the other jags on the road!
There is virtually no rust on this car it has always been garaged and the car has always had an underlining on it. it is finally stating to peal off so you can see the original red paint under the car!! no rust on an 86 jag! you can see in the pics the car is straight, no dents or issues, id give the exterior a 8.5 and the interior an 8. The car also has a new pioneer deck,with 4 dual 3way speakers. 51/4 front and 6x9 rear! car is pickup only, although id might deliver for a good price which would include gas.. obviously. all electronics are working in the car,and the car also has a very rare Aston Martin sunroof that does not even slightly leak. No leaks, tight steering and suspension. A true luxury car. I have never seen something so pretty sound so mad at the world. Thank you for looking and feel free to ask questions, i don't need a car for a while, i work in the building i live in. |

Porsche, Jaguar continue dominance in 2015 JD Power APEAL study
Wed, Jul 22 2015The top of JD Power's 2015 APEAL Study has not changed much in the last year. Porsche remains No. 1 with Jaguar nipping at its heels, although both premium brands saw their overall score fall compared to 2014. For those that need a refresher, the APEAL Study looks at how "gratifying" a vehicle is to own and drive, rating cars and brands on a 1,000-point scale. The industry average for 2015 has increased from 794 to 798, while the total number of automakers that finished above the curve increased from 16 to 20. While Porsche and Jaguar finished at the top, their scores dropped eight and seven points, respectively, to 874 and 855. The top "non-premium" brand was Mini, which scored an impressive 825, up from 795. If the BMW-owned British marque is still a bit too premium for your tastes, last year's non-premium winner, Hyundai, did climb five points and is this year's runner up. At the opposite end of the scale, Smart sits at the very bottom of the rankings, with a score of 683 (it didn't appear on the 2014 rankings). Fiat also dropped, from fourth worst in 2014 to second worst in 2015, despite the 500 being named most appealing city car. Subaru made an impressive climb, from third worst to seventh, falling just 10 points shy of the industry average and two points south of the non-premium average. In the individual vehicle segments, eight brands earned multiple awards, with Ford, Chevrolet, and Porsche earning three apiece. Surprise segment victories included the new Ford Expedition, which beat out Chevy's popular Suburban. The Infiniti QX80 bested the likes of the Cadillac Escalade and Range Rover for best large luxury SUV, and the Dodge Challenger beat its muscle car rivals from Ford and Chevy. Most of the victories, though, were quite predictable. The Mazda6 and CX-5 took wins for the midsize sedan and compact SUV categories respectively, while the Volkswagen Golf captured the compact car win. The Ford F-150 won the large pickup category, while the Porsche Cayman was named most appealing compact premium sporty car. Check out the official release on the 2015 APEAL Study, available below, from JD Power. 2015 U.S. APEAL Study Results The latest safety-related technologies are among the drivers of customer satisfaction with new vehicles, according to the J.D.

2014 Jaguar F-Type, Project 7 Concept snarl in Jay Leno's Garage
Mon, 14 Oct 2013Jay Leno gets to drive a lot of nice cars, and the Jaguar F-Type V8 S he pilots in the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage is no exception. Eric Johnson, vice president of Jaguar Western Region brought the car to Leno's garage, which impresses the comedian with its 5.0-liter V8 that makes 495 horsepower, 460 pound-feet of torque and a muscle car-like roar.
But there's a surprise this episode: Leno secured a drive in the Project 7 Concept at Pebble Beach this year, and the experience was caught on video. Based on the F-Type, the Project 7 is a functional concept car that nods to Jaguar's seven wins at Le Mans and features bespoke styling cues, a special exhaust system and, perhaps most importantly, 50 more horsepower from the supercharged V8.
Watch the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage in the video below. You'll need a little over 23 minutes to see the whole thing.
