1997 Jaguar XK-8 Convertible. 85k original and easy miles. White with tan interior and tan top. 4.0 liter V8 with  automatic transmission and all standard factory options (air, Harmon Kardon stereo, etc.) Adult owned, never abused, well maintained. I am the second owner. Probably the nicest one in the area. Multiple time show winner at the local British car shows in its class over the past years. Excellent condition, only a few very minor paint chips as one would expect on any car, nothing that detracts from it at all. Perfect Interior, seats show no wear, dash not split or cracked.  Perfect matching wood. Front bumper is excellent, not all scratched up underneath like you see on many of these cars. Top works great, takes the factory standard 20 seconds to raise or lower in warm weather. Tires, brakes, etc. all good. Runs and shifts great. Factory alloy wheels, no aftermarket junk on the vehicle. All glass is perfect. 

Only selling to thin my collection a bit. Very nice cruising and show car with no issues. Clean Title and CarFax, you can check by typing the VIN in. All owners manuals, keys, and docs present. I replaced the timing chain tensioners when I purchased the car with the new design ones as preventative maintenance. If you do not know, the original tensioner design had a plastic case that became brittle with age and engine heat, leading to tensioner failure and the corresponding valves hitting the pistons, etc.. The new design tensioner is all metal to prevent this from happening. No Nikasil issues either, only good quality gas used in the car. If you are looking at another of these cars, ask the owner if they did the tensioners, or the dealer if they know the past history. Chances are they didn't or do not know what you are talking about… Please contact me with any questions on the vehicle. This car books thru NADA for between $7000 and $9600. I am not a dealer or car flipper, but the NADA book is what is most commonly used to price and appraise, so that is what I will go by. Honest price for a very nice car.

A  deposit of $500 must be paid within 24 hours of the close of the auction thru PayPal. The remaining balance must be paid within 3 days. Buyer is responsible for any applicable taxes to their locality.  Delivery is the buyer's responsibility. Vehicle is sold as-is. I reserve the right to end auction early as vehicle is also offered locally for sale.

Jaguar Land Rover posts profitable quarter amidst big yearly losses

Mon, May 20 2019

Jaguar has posted its first profit in quite some time, as the financial quarter ending on March 31 brought in a net income of $151.6 million. However, that is the light in the end of the tunnel, as full year results through March showed a $4.58 billion loss (GBP3.6 billion). The losses are again attributable to declining sales in China, with a whiff of the still-lingering Brexit process. While JLR's annual U.S. sales were up 8.1 percent, and U.K. sales improved by 8.4%, overall sales came down 5.8% to 578,915 vehicles. For April, Chinese sales nearly halved as they dropped by 46 percent. Earlier this year, JLR's woes caused its owner Tata Motors to post the biggest ever quarterly loss in Indian corporate history, at nearly $4 billion. JLR's CEO Ralf Speth stated that the company is "reducing complexity" and transforming its business by cost savings and cash flow improvements, citing the fourth-quarter profits as an example of the ongoing turnaround. Speth said JLR has already managed to deliver $1.59 billion (GBP1.25 billion) of efficiencies and savings. JLR says its turnaround program, dubbed Charge, will drive it to at least $3.18 billion (GBP2.5 billion) of investment, working capital and profit improvements by March 2020, and that it currently has $4.84 billion (GBP3.8 billion) of cash. Speth continued that JLR will "go forward as a transformed company that's leaner and fitter," and that the sustained investment in new products and technologies will drive future demand. There has been earlier speculation of Tata Motors selling JLR to the PSA Group, but as Autocar reports, Tata's financial chief again refuted these rumors. JLR also announced today that its CFO of 11 years, Ken Gregor is stepping down after 22 years with the company, and that he will be succeeded by JLR's Chief Transformation Officer, Adrian Mardell.

Jaguar XE spied flying over London

Mon, 08 Sep 2014

We only have a few hours to wait before Jaguar finally, and fully, unveils its oft-teased XE sedan. But the Internet is no respecter of secrets, as these very last-minute spy shots make clear.
Presumably being airlifted to its spectacular debut location near Earl's Court in London, the BMW 3-Series-fighting XE was captured mid-flight, and completely undisguised.
The images are understandably a bit blurry, but they do confirm that DNA from the current Jag lineup is transitioning nicely to the new small luxury sedan. The XE shows a stance typical of the brand, with a relatively short rear overhang, and big, boldly styled wheels. The bluff front end is reminiscent of if the XF and XJ, and, as we know from earlier teasers, will wear a "growler" logo over a black grille.

Jaguar Race Taxis will fling you around the Nurburgring

Tue, May 8 2018

The Germans have a word, " fernweh," literally meaning "far sickness," that describes a special kind of longing. It's a strange sensation in which you feel homesick for a place that you're in tune with, a place that moves you, but it's a place you've never actually been to before. Someone who loves cars might be drawn that way to the Nurburgring. But if you're traveling to Germany this summer to fulfill that sense of fernweh, how do you experience the Green Hell firsthand? Your rental-car company might frown on you taking matters into your own hands. But Jaguar may have your answer. The Jaguar Race Taxi experience will give you a hot lap around the 13 miles and 73 corners of the Nordschleife in the 575-horsepower Jaguar F-Type SVR and the equally powerful four-door Jaguar XJR575. You'll ride with professional drivers who won't coddle you — Jaguar promises cornering forces of 1.2g. "A ride in the F-TYPE SVR and XJR575 Race Taxi is a thrilling and truly unforgettable experience for any car enthusiast — or anybody who just enjoys going very fast!" says Phil Talboys, JLR's European engineering operations manager. "Our highly experienced professional drivers are veterans of the Nurburgring 24-hour race, making them uniquely qualified to show customers the true potential of these extraordinary supercharged V8 Jaguars." The laps are available until the snow flies in November. Taxi fare is ˆ199 ($236) per lap in either car. You'll be in and out in 30 minutes, counting the safety briefing, the hot lap and a review of the video you'll walk away with. Oh, and there's a weight limit of 120 kilos (264 pounds), so you stockier souls may want to start your diets now. Reservations can be made at the track or online here. The F-Type SVR can take one passenger, and the XJR575 will haul you and two of your screaming friends. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.
