Outstanding Condition Up To Date Maintenance And Lots Of History Included on 2040-cars
Peachtree City, Georgia, United States
|
Up for sale is an outstanding condition 1990 low mileage
Jaguar XJS in a beautiful color combination. I have significant documentation
on this car dating back over 10 years and even had the original window sticker.
While I love driving this car and looking at it I have two XJS’s and one XKE
and future retirement plans will only allow for one play car and that would be
the XKE. Much work has been done on this convertible within the last
9 months to make it mechanically sound and also some suspension enhancements to
improve the ride quality. I am anal about my cars and want them as near perfect
as possible. If you are considering an
older Jaguar make sure you understand that what you buy may cost a significant
amount to bring the car into good condition regardless of miles and stated
condition. I welcome pre bid inspections on this car and will provide a book of
documentation on the work performed over the years. Due to excessive cowl shake on pre 1992 XJS convertibles a
new bracing system was designed to significantly improve ride quality when the
face lift XJS appeared in 1992. I purchased an OEM bracing system for this car
and had it installed to give the car the same ride quality as the redesigned
1992 XJS’s. If you are looking at a pre-1992 XJS please watch out for cowl
shake as the cars age. I can assure you the bracing system which cost me over
$1,600 to buy/install makes a major difference in before and after ride
quality. The following mechanical work was performed by a highly
qualified Jaguar mechanic. 1) New water pump and AC compressor 2) 4 new tires. 3) Installed Dayton wire wheels previously used only 2 years
– outstanding condition 4) New brake accumulator 5) New hood struts 6) Removed all door dings 7) Matched and refinished cracked center console wood 8) New crankshaft seal 9) New steel valve cover gaskets 10) New radiator hoses 11) New coolant expansion tank 12) New throttle shaft bushing 13) All new drive belts 14) New breather hose 15) New intake manifold gasket 16) New plugs 17) OEM undercarriage bracing system 1992 model year and
newer 18) New rear brake drums – very expensive repair due to
inboard brakes 19) New rear brake pads and calipers and emergency brake
pads It’s getting harder to find great quality low mile XJS’s
These cars are starting to gain in value as the price of XKE’s are out of reach
for many and XJS’s are bargains when you consider how rare and exotic these
cars are. For model year 1990 less than 5,000 were manufactured which is about
an average production year. I will be selling this car for less than my
investment over the last 12 months however I do not plan on giving the car
away. If you have any questions about
the car let me know. |

2018 Jaguar F-Pace S is a fun but thirsty travel companion
Fri, Dec 22 2017I love road trips. I've moved across the country twice, spending weeks living out of my car, eating granola bars and sucking down energy drinks like it was finals week all over again. I get a huge kick out of calculating fuel economy, stretching out tanks of gas or diesel until the low-fuel light begins to sear itself into my retinas. I try to take each and every one of our long-term vehicles on some such trip. Not long after our 2017 Jaguar F-Pace S arrives, my wife and I decided to see some family in Asheville, North Carolina, roughly 10 hours and 700 miles from our home in suburban Detroit. Now, I knew from the outset this was going to be a far different experience than our previous long-termer, a 2017 Jaguar XE diesel. I managed to eek out nearly 700 miles per tank, averaging 42 mpg over 2,000 miles with that car. But the 380-horsepower supercharged V6 in the F-Pace is rated at 18 city/23 highway with a combined rating of just 20 mpg. Not good, and — unlike the XE — I didn't think I could do much better without greatly altering my admittedly aggressive driving habits. Still, I wanted to take our blue bomber to the Blue Ridge Parkway, so onward I went. There were a few other things I was worried about over what was sure to be another 2,000-mile trip. The F-Pace's suspension was a bit stiff thanks to the sporty S trim. The 20-inch wheels don't help matters, though things could be worse (some people on staff wanted to get 22s). At least they look good. Still, the seats are comfortable and the radio is top-notch. LCD Soundsystem's latest album had just come out, so I put it on repeat and headed south. The first part of the trip was going to be both the most boring and the most economical. The roads in Michigan and Ohio are flat and straight. It isn't until you hit Kentucky and head into the Appalachian Mountains that things get interesting. Just set the radar cruise control and barrel down Interstate 75 with as much urgency as you dare. I forgot my Valentine One at home. The ride was firm but not as bad as I imagined it might be, at least once we got off of Michigan's pockmarked pavement. The F-Pace tracked straight and true, but I became acutely aware that the steering wheel itself was out of alignment, leaning just slightly to the left. Fuel economy was fine, but I was just meeting the EPA estimate, not beating it like I usually manage to do.
Look for Jaguar C-X75 in your new James Bond Scalextric set
Sat, Jan 24 2015Scalextric, the slot-car racing set, has produced sets themed around James Bond films for years. You can get the Range Rover from Skyfall, the Alfa Romeo from Quantum of Solace, the DBS from Casino Royale, and almost all of the sets include the Aston Martin DB5; there was a limited-edition three-car series of DB5s around the movie Goldeneye, back in 1995. They'll be doing it again for the coming Spectre film, Pocket-lint.com saying that the set will come later this year and looks like it will include the Jaguar C-X75. That treat, as well as the DB10, haven't been completed for the toy set yet because they haven't been finalized for the film. A new DB5 run will be available for the garage, limited to 4,500 units and featuring a manually raised rear shield and an automatic ejector seat triggered if the car bumps a bollard along the track during feisty driving. The expected price is 100 pounds ($152 US), which includes track, and it should be out sometime before the movie arrives in theaters in November.

Jaguar shows off production XE body in camo
Sun, 18 May 2014Jaguar turned to Twitter and Facebook to reveal the production form of its coming XE sedan that we'll see for real at the Paris Motor Show. This is the first of a series of show-offs, Jaguar planning to wrap the bodywork in see-through camo that shows off the aluminum monocoque and other internals the company will use to promote the XE over its German rivals. That aluminum structure, which Jaguar calls iQ[Al], will also be used for other Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles.
Underneath that long bonnet and ahead of that terribly short trunk will come a series of Ingenium engines, the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engines in diesel and petrol forms that will come in a variety of power options, and the 3.0-liter supercharged V6 that can also be found in the F-Type. Before the XE goes on sale early next year, you can click the image above to get a slightly larger view of what the The Leaping Cat's near future looks like.
