Backstory from the owner...

You are looking for the finest Jaguar you can find.  You are here because the excellence found in your neck of the woods is a joke.  I know exactly how you feel.  I attend specialty and dealer-only auctions every week searching for the best of the best in what I like to call, "niche autos."  I scan lists of over 3,000 vehicles locally each week and select cars I've come to know are hard to find and that fit my business model of marketing exclusively on eBay.  A low mileage drophead Jag will make my list every single time but just a small percentage of cars end up being worth my hard earned money.  I'll see a dozen or so of all types each year (27-years in the business/doing this online last 7 years) and what that means for you is; I have looked at, touched, smelled and walked away from a lot of Jaguars.  I am extremely picky and this convertible is one of a precious handful nice enough to justify the considerable efforts of me and my staff.  Past ownership, service history and condition, condition, condition are what matters.  High performance collectables are not always treated well, but a precious few are taken care of and given proper respect.  Beautiful paint, spectacular interior, service history and an absolute knock-out to see in person - as good as these pictures are, they can't possibly convey the awesome visual impact this car has in real life.  What else could you want?  A great deal?  I have that covered too but you will not be purchasing this ultra rare condition car for wholesale or even low book value.  You already know you get what you pay for and if you want documented service, exceptional condition and true excellence, this 1994 Jaguar XJS 2+2 convertible represents a rare opportunity.  Read all about this remarkable car, examine every picture in detail, see the amazing quality up close and personal and then make your call and give me an offer.  I promise, you will not be disappointed.

Sublime.  This 1994 Jaguar 2+2 convertible is perhaps the highest quality, most carefully maintained XJS available for purchase in the world.  A bold statement and easy to justify with a car this special.  Purchased new in California, the 34,621 miles accumulated slowly and service was frequent.  It has never been in an accident and the paint and exterior trim suggest nothing other than indoor storage.  Everything works, nothing is broken, it's spotless under the bonnet and assembly line fresh underneath.  This is how a top level, high quality classic is supposed to look.  This is how a new Jaguar is supposed to drive.  Having averaged barely 1,700 miles annually since new, this XJS is sublime . . .

 

 

With no accident history, panel alignment is superb and seams are tight.  Tap the key, click the 4-speed automatic in drive and experience how completely beguiling British performance and luxury can feel.  Few cars are as free from vibration and none own the road or turn as many heads as this XJS certainly does . . .

Precision and finesse with every turn of the wheel, every sure application of the brakes.  This is refinement, with no pretense and it's baked into a Jaguar's DNA.  This seductive cat redefines what a 20 year old "used" car can be.  Exterior bright work is stunning, all lenses look new and the doors, bonnet and boot open smooth and close new car solid.

 

 

Long and lithe, this XJS is completely British and the very definition of what a Jaguar is.  It was assembled at Browns Lane in Coventry, with uncompromising style and craftsmanship.  Unparalleled quality and a great maintenance record, the lucky winner of this drophead need not make any compromises in his or her expectations, however extreme . . .

 

 

Top-down profile is timeless and top condition itself is practically perfect.  It powers down and back up again flawlessly and the matching boot snaps into place easily.  Component fit is factory fresh, exterior lenses are clear and bright and soft trim seems unaffected by exposure.  A car at this condition level actually increases in value the longer and closer you look.  That's the kind of quality this XJS has and with only 34,621 miles, this unbelievable Jag is an extremely rare car.  This 1994 Jaguar XJS convertible was a classic the day it rolled off the assembly line and its future collectability is assured.  Like most owners, you probably won't be selling it any time soon . . .

 

 

Jaguar calls this leather, "Doeskin" and you won't find a single rip or tear.  It is in fact (like everything else) one of the highest quality interiors we've ever seen on any car, regardless of mileage . . .

 

 

Both seats are 6-way power adjustable, heated and have power lumbar.  There are two airbags and unlike some XJS convertibles, this is a 2+2 so, in a pinch, people can ride in the back . . .

(back seat use ideal for short trips, small/adorable children, large/un-adorable adults and/or annoying people)

 

 

There it is; about 4.7 miles a day since new . . .

A note from the owner.

I am a “used car dealer” but before that, I’m an automobile enthusiast.  I love original rare and high quality modified vintage cars and over the past decade I’ve been in business, have come to appreciate an expanding selection of high-demand, high value vehicles.  I specialize in and am always on the lookout for cars and trucks that were cherished by their previous owners.  I have an experienced eye for quality but I’ve discovered that my preferred buyer can instantly discern such a vehicle and I have therefore, built my business and reputation around finding these kinds of cars for this type of customer.  Super low miles and/or gentle ownership are strict requirements but a car must do something for me on a personal level if there is any hope of convincing you, the bidder, that this is an above average, exceptional vehicle.  If nothing about the car excites me, it probably won’t do much for you either and I would soon be out of business.

With just four employees and no sales people, I realize how unusual a “dealership” like mine may at first glance appear.  It has taken great care and effort to create such an organization and often, an unusually high investment in a particular car we are about to list.  To sell the best it is critical to have a trusted expert in my corner and Chris, owner of A-Best Auto Repair in Henderson, Nevada has my back.  He and his crew can fix anything; from a low budget beater to the absolute most expensive exotic you can name, no job is too big and no small detail unimportant.  They do an exhaustive 130 point inspection on each and every vehicle and nothing escapes their methodical investigation.  Experience has shown that everything I spend making a car truly “right” will come back to me not only with a higher selling price, but a happy customer that says good things about me.  Moreover; it allows my writer to describe the car with ease and confidence, something that simply is not possible unless he thinks it is true.  If major issues are found or the cost of fixing the car the way it should be makes it too expensive to sell, my choice is an easy one.  I simply absorb a few hundred dollars loss for my trouble and sell it at auction.

After the vehicle is fully sorted it arrives at our facility where it encounters the suspicious eye of Tom, my writer that creates the presentations you see on eBay.  He believes absolutely nothing I or anyone else tells him about the car as he combs over every inch, researches its history and documents originality and authenticity.  Historical significance, rarity, special features, possible modifications and much more are used to accurately describe the vehicle with integrity and honesty.  Most important for the potential buyer are the 100 to 150 high resolution pictures that I take myself.  The pricey equipment I use would be right at home in the hands of the very best professional photographers and I’ve developed a logical format that walks you around the entire vehicle with close-up shots of every square inch.  I provide detailed views of the interior, under the hood and then put it on a lift to show the undercarriage and confirm that the beauty of the car you are considering is not merely skin deep.  Even our detailers are enthusiastic about the cars they so meticulously clean.  This reconditioning can sometimes take several days and I’ve converted a paint booth, especially prepared for the professional clay bar and polishing each car lovingly receives.

Usually, I’ll also include a high definition video that shows the car doing its thing.  If it’s a fast car, we film it going fast.  If it’s a 4x4 you’ll see it crawling up a hill.  In every case you will hear things like a rumbling exhaust, working sound system and watch the temperature fall on a digital, laser thermometer pointed at an air conditioning vent.  How many “dealers” will video a Lotus Esprit doing a buck-eighty?  We do.

No “dealer,” on-line or in the real world, takes it to this level.  No other seller or organization provides you, the buyer, with so much information.  I do this because it is the only way I can convince a person; often a world away, unable to touch or feel their purchase, that my vehicle is for real and what I say is the truth.  All the above is necessary for me to stay in business while keeping integrity intact.  I want every buyer to be happy and I need glowing feedback on eBay.  To accomplish that I need satisfied customers that are as thrilled with their purchase as I was when I bought it.

If you have any questions at all, please call me on my cell at: 702-353-7500.  If your inquiry is sincere and your offer  serious, you’ll find me the most accommodating business partner you’ve ever dealt with.  If you call or e-mail asking for my reserve or “what is my bottom line” I will be looking for ways to politely end the conversation.  Until you are ready to actually pull the trigger, I will happily quote you the absolute highest nationally advertised suggested retail price I can find – a number we both know will not buy the car so, don’t waste your time, or mine.  I am after all, a “used car dealer.”

Serious buyers know the maximum they can offer.  I then must simply decide if I can sell for that number.

If you hit the reserve, the decision is no longer mine.  I must sell at that number.

Jaguar C-X75 and Aston Martin DB10 spied drifting during Spectre shoot

Fri, Feb 27 2015

Based on the cars alone, the 24th James Bond film, Spectre, is set to be one of the biggest and most impressive in the long-lived franchise. While we're stuck waiting until November to see the automotive extravaganza on the big screen, a lucky bystander managed to catch two of the movie's four-wheeled stars filming on the streets of Rome. Italian YouTuber Marchettino, well known for his videos from Ferrari's Fiorano test track, caught the video of the Aston Martin DB10 and Jaguar C-X75 filming in the dark of the Roman night, with the Aston sliding its way around a turn and the Jag giving chase. Not surprisingly, the DB10's Vantage-derived V8 features prominently. This is, of course, not the first time news regarding this chase scene has graced our digital pages. Spectre star Daniel Craig sustained a minor injury in the course of this filming, after the DB10 he was riding in hit a pretty significant pothole. We've also caught 007's Aston filming in the UK.

Autoblog Podcast #339:

Jaguar Land Rover might buy another luxury brand that it doesn't need

Mon, Sep 25 2017

It seems that Jaguar Land Rover may be getting bigger in the near future. According to Bloomberg, the company is looking at acquiring some tech companies, and possibly yet another luxury car brand, provided that it fits with the current lineup of cars. On the surface, this makes some sense since Bloomberg reports that a whopping 78 percent of Tata Motors' revenue comes from luxury brands. And of course, any kind of tech acquisition could be useful considering the rapid development of electric and autonomous vehicles. But dig a little deeper, and a possible luxury brand acquisition just doesn't make sense for Jaguar Land Rover. The main reason for this is that the Jaguar and Land Rover brands have the luxury market thoroughly covered. Both brands offer full luxury lines from entry-level to high-end ( Discovery Sport to Range Rover on the Land Rover side, and XE to XJ on the Jaguar side). They also cater to every kind of luxury, from sporty vehicles such as the F-Type and SVR Land Rovers, to cushy luxury machines such as the XJ and Range Rover. So whether the company is competing with BMW or Mercedes, Jaguar and Land Rover have the bases covered. There aren't any other typical luxury brands that would actually add anything to the current lineup. In fact, adding another conventional luxury brand could actually result in the new brand poaching existing Jaguar and Land Rover buyers, rather than picking up new ones. What would make more sense for Jaguar Land Rover would be to pick up either a more mainstream brand, or an ultra-luxury marque. Neither Jaguar nor Land Rover has something that competes directly with the likes of Ford or Toyota in the mainstream game, or Rolls-Royce or Bentley at the top of the luxury heap. Picking up a brand in one of these segments would allow JLR and Tata Motors to actually expand offerings and pick up more sales, rather than having an internal competitor. What path would be ideal? Probably going even farther upmarket. Supercar makers and ultra-luxury brands continue to sell well, and there's the potential for significant profit by layering on features and content to existing platforms. Perhaps the best possibility for a high-end complement to Jaguar Land Rover would be Aston Martin. Not only does it have a strong reputation and line-up, it also could handle both supercars and luxury sedans, thanks to its Lagonda sub brand. Of course it would require Aston Martin to be receptive to a purchase.
