 1997 Jaguar XK8 Verendum.  This car has been a project of mine for the last year.  I build supercars from otherwise normal cars.  This Jaguar xk8 has been made to look like a Jaguar no one has ever seen.  The body was imported from the UK from a company called Paragon Designs.  The body alone costs $6500.  I also incorporated the new style tail lights on this build.  These are Jag XF lights around the back.  The body is made of Fiberglass and it is SOLID! The Lambo doors were added to give it that supercar feel.  They are from Vertical Doors and were $1200.  The wheels are Lexani Lust 20" with Nitto 555 tires wrapped around them.  These wheels cost $3800 with the tires. Lastly we did a custom Plasti Dip Spray on it.  It is Copper Pearl with black accents.  This product can be removed (like taking off a glove) and you can paint it whatever you want.  This is a satin finish and is very durable.  Plasti Dip $1000 Total exterior totals $12,500

 Moving to the interior I recovered the front seats with original Jag leather $1200. New speakers all around Rockford 6.5" $200 and a DVD multimedia Radio from Power Accustic $150.  Total interior $1500

Engine runs perfect on this car. New Battery $125, Plugs, Knock Sensors, Oil Pressure sensor and Updated computer. $ 1800   I cut off the rear most silencer and added 4" tips through the rear defuser to give it that new modern look. Exhaust $300

So there you have it a car that will make your friends envious that you have a ONE OF A KIND.

Yes You will have the only one of these cars here in the US.  I am the only one that had this body shipped in from the UK.  Enjoy!

Jaguar recalling XK Convertible and XF 2.0T sedan for unrelated issues

Fri, 16 Aug 2013

Jaguar has announced that it will be recalling 1,989 XK Convertibles produced between October 1, 2010 and August 1, 2013. Model years ranging from 2011 to 2014 are part of the recall.
The issue has to do with one of the switches the switch that controls the opening and closing of the convertible top. The switch also has to do with the operation of the power windows. According to the Feds, the switch doesn't move down to close the power windows, meaning that the window could accidentally close on the finger or arm of an inattentive person.
In related news, Jaguar is also recalling 940 2013 XF sedans powered by the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine for a hose that can detach underhood, which could cause the engine to stall or could leave the driver without power steering or brakes.

Has the Jaguar XKR-S Sportbrake leaked out early?

Sun, 23 Feb 2014

Want to haul ass down the Autobahn with the whole family and all their gear in tow? Forget that Porsche Cayenne or Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 - what you'll want is a power wagon: something like an Audi RS6 Avant or Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG Estate. Unfortunately there are precious few of these performance station wagons on the market anywhere, especially with American offerings like the Cadillac CTS-V Sport Wagon on its way out and the Dodge Magnum SRT8 long gone. But there's a new challenger emerging.
That'd be the Jaguar XFR-S Sportbrake, a hi-po estate from Coventry that's been a long time in the making. And now it's apparently almost here. (Only by "here," we mean "there," as it's not likely ever to come to the United States.)
Apparently set to be unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show is a Frankenstein-style cross between a Jaguar XF Sportbrake and XFR-S performance sedan, taking the best elements from both. From the former, that means the extended roofline that gives it the cargo capacity of a small crossover. From the former, that means a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 producing 542 horsepower and 502 pound-feet of torque, driving the rear wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission.

Is Jaguar's 3 Series-fighter the brand's last chance?

Wed, 16 Oct 2013

The upcoming line of compact 3 Series-fighters from Jaguar, often referred to as the Jaguar XS, could consist of a sedan, wagon and possibly a coupe and GT model (think BMW 5 Series GT). The car's all-aluminum architecture also will provide the basis for two new sports utility vehicles. Just how important is the much-touted "baby Jag" project to parent company Jaguar Land Rover? A JLR executive reportedly says the brand's survival is directly linked to the success of the XS, codenamed X760, Autocar reports.
The brand's survival is directly linked to the success of the XS.
"If the X760 fails, it will probably be the end for the [Jaguar] brand," the executive says. But Adrian Hallmark, Jaguar's global brand director, claims Jaguar will "build the most advanced, most efficient, most refined car in that [compact luxury sedan] segment. Not almost as good as, but better than the best in the world."
