1967 JAGUAR E-TYPE XKE SERIES ONE 4.2 LITER 2+2 COUPE. 4-SPEED. WIRE WHEELS. ORIG OPALESCENT SILVER GRAY WITH BLACK TRIM. 

Up for sale, here on Ebay from KURT TANNER RESTORATIONS, is a 1967 Jaguar E-type 2+2 Coupe. This car is a full numbers-matching example, with a 4-speed and wire wheels. It left the factory in the very attractive color scheme of Opalescent Silver Gray with Black leather trim. It is a very complete car with nothing missing. It was painted only once during it's lifetime in it's current white color, which has now been sanded down a bit. The interior trim is highly original including what's left of the seats, carpets, headliner, panel kit, etc.
The car has the original, believed rebuilt engine that was completed as the first step to the previous owner's restoration efforts. The car has clean oil, full up to the mark. There are plenty of new gaskets fitted. The engine overall is very clean and tidy, and appears to have new core plugs and a painted block and head. After a battery and fuel, It was started up and running for about a few minutes with no noises and a very healthy tick over. It turns over on the starter with very nice, even compression. After some brake work and a cleaning of the fuel system, it may even drive well. There is a small leak in the front timing cover needing repair. The water pump is currently removed, and a new water pump is supplied. There is a newer exhaust system fitted to the car. The current recorded mileage reads around 77,000 which could very well be correct. 
Overall the body of the car is extremely solid. There are a few, very minor rust "cracks", about 2 inches long, around the lower front rockers and one around the LH wheelarch. The floors are perfectly solid, as well as the trunk and underside. The bonnet has been bumped in the nose and repaired once, but lines up very nicely along the bulkhead with good fit. The driver side door hinge has some wear. All of the body panels are original to the car. There is the occasional dent here and there.
This fairly desirable Series One, 4.2 Liter 2+2 E-type has matching numbers with a 4-speed gearbox with triple carbs, toggle switches, and the open headlights. This was a feature on the late '67 produced cars. This car offers excellent value when compared to the two-seater Coupe model from the same year. It's approximately half the price. It is a very good, original car for straightforward restoration. It's original color scheme is very desirable, and offers the bonus of a rebuilt engine. A very good and economical opportunity to secure a good Jaguar E-type Series One example. This car is located in Southern California and can be viewed by appointment. It is sold with a clear and current CA title. $21,500.

Environmental group accuses BMW, JLR of link to deforestation in Paraguay

Wed, Sep 30 2020

ASUNCION, Paraguay — Environmental group Earthsight said on Wednesday it has linked some of Europe's largest carmakers to the deforestation of the Chaco, a dry forest region of Paraguay home to jaguars and one of the last uncontacted indigenous groups in the world. The group said in a report that livestock companies have illegally logged lands of the Ayoreo Totobiegosode indigenous ethnic group, some of whose members live in voluntary isolation. The livestock skin is used in leather upholstery of luxury vehicles sold by high-end European auto brands including BMW, Jaguar and Land Rover, the group said. UK-based Earthsight said it had made covert visits to tanneries that bragged about supplying the raw material to the luxury car brands. "BMW is using hides sourced from two slaughterhouses processing cows from ranches responsible for illegal [logging] in the Ayoreo Totobiegosode's forests. Jaguar Land Rover didn't dispute sourcing from a Paraguayan tannery that processes hides from another slaughterhouse doing the same," the report said. Jaguar Land Rover said in a statement to Reuters it had found no evidence to verify Earthsight's claims. It said its European suppliers assured sustainability. "We continue  our drive for further transparency and, in this case, the leather supplier in Europe verifies with each raw material supplier that no rural property that directly supplies it is involved in illegal deforestation," the automaker said. BMW did not respond to a request for comment on the Earthsight investigation. Paraguay exports about 50,000 tons of wet-blue leather (tanned, but not dried, dyed or finished) a year, and almost two-thirds of those shipments are bound for Europe, according to the report. Automakers say that leather is a byproduct of the far larger meat industry and high-end cars constitute a comparatively small market niche. But indigenous leaders say deforestation driven by growth in beef and leather exports is encroaching on their territory and destroying their way of life. "As deforestation advances with extensive cattle ranching, they are being imprisoned, they are disappearing," Taguide Picanerai, a spokesman for the Ayoreo community in the Alto Paraguay department, northwest of Asuncion, told Reuters. The region is home to some of the world's highest rates of deforestation, Earthsight said.   Green BMW Jaguar Land Rover

Jaguar Land Rover names ousted Renault boss as new CEO

Tue, Jul 28 2020

LONDON — Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has picked ousted Renault boss Thierry Bollore as its next chief executive, with a mission to return Britain's biggest carmaker to profit after a big hit from the COVID-19 pandemic. Bollore took over at Renault in January 2019 after the fall of Carlos Ghosn, but was always viewed as close to the French carmaker's longtime boss and was pushed out in October when the company was looking for a fresh start. Bollore will take over at JLR on Sept. 10, replacing Ralf Speth, whose tenure ends after more than 10 years. "It will be my privilege to lead this fantastic company through what continues to be the most testing time of our generation," Bollore said in a statement on Tuesday. JLR was hit this year first by disruption to sales in China and then by lockdowns across Europe and North America as the COVID-19 outbreak spread around the globe. In 2019, it cut jobs to address tumbling diesel sales, which helped it return to profit. But as the pandemic struck, it slumped to a pretax loss of 422 million pounds ($545 million) for the year ended March 31, 2020. The company has already taken steps to tackle the crisis, including agreeing to a loan facility of around $700 million with lenders in China and further staff reductions. JLR is also in talks with the British government over potential support, according to media reports. Bollore takes over a business that built just over 500,000 cars in 2019/20. He faces a number of tasks, including how to handle the Jaguar brand, which underperforms the Land Rover marque, how quickly to electrify its lineup and a potential hit from Brexit if trade barriers are imposed. JLR has a partnership with BMW on electrification, and parent company Tata Motors recently recommitted to the company. "Tata Group recognizes and values Jaguar Land Rover's future potential highly," said JLR Chairman Natarajan Chandrasekaran earlier this month. "That is why this company is central to our global automotive presence – a presence that we intend to develop for years to come."

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.
