KURT TANNER RESTORATIONS presents for sale, here on Ebay, an exceptional Jaguar E-type for restoration.
 
You are currently viewing a 40,000-mile, highly original, two-owner, perfectly rustfree and accident-free CA car. It is in need of a new enthusiastic owner to return it to it's former glory. This car is a perfect entry-level Jaguar E-type that can be secured for very sensible money in this escalating European classic car market. Because of the car's excellent overall condition and it's associated parts, I believe that labor rather than expense would be needed to restore this car to a very high standard. 
This car was driven a believed minimal amount of mileage when a valve keeper let go and put a stop to the car's use. The car lived in the San Francisco Bay area at that time. The highly original and untouched car sat in storage for many years and was then purchased by a restorer who set about to perform a Concours level restoration. The car was very carefully and meticulously partially disassembled, with almost all components and parts being bagged, tagged, and boxed. Because of personal reasons, the restoration was never finished. This car is 100% COMPLETE in every sense of the word. The car was only moved once during it's disassembled state, and all parts and components were contained in about 12 large boxes.
 
I WAS STUNNED at the condition of all the parts in general. So well-preserved. The car's interior was in exceptional condition, even ready to just clean and re-use, with a replacement of just a few items like the headliner and carpets. Some interior and exterior chrome parts are in factory new condition, some other pieces would clean up very nicely. The wheels and tires could even clean up well. The 5th wheel is the factory original Dunlop spare. All the glass parts are excellent. Every original item on the car was saved and may even clean up perfectly nice to be used again. This is definitely a car that has lived indoors all of it's life...
 
The body, doors, bonnet, are all still in the original light blue factory paintwork. Some minimal body work has been performed, but the car is not far from being repainted! There is a small area around the RH headlight area with some small repairable damage. The rest of the body is near-perfect. The car is completely rustfree. 
The mechanical components look very good. The original assembled low-mileage short block looks excellent with no marks on the pistons and hardly a step on the cylinder bores. The IRS unit is totally complete and together with excellent rear splined hubs. It may just need a service and a good detail.  The cylinder head has been disassembled and ready for a valve job. The front suspension, brakes, radiator, carbs and intake, transmission, steering rack, A/C components, etc. all look very nice and low-mileage. The car would need an exhaust system. 

This car also includes a brand new, correct, Navy Blue Wilton Wool carpet kit and a new, quality, full rubber sealing kit that appears to be for the entire car. Most likely a $1000 value combined... 

This Jaguar presents a very economical opportunity to own one of Britain's most iconic sportscars that has spent it's entire life here in sunny California. Because of it's excellent overall condition for a restoration car, recommissioning of it's components and re-assembly should be an easy, straightforward process. 

This car can be viewed by appointment in Southern California and is sold with a clear CA title. $12,500.

Hardcore Jaguar F-Type underway, 600 horsepower possible

Thu, Mar 26 2015

Thanks to an already potent range of supercharged engines with some of the best exhaust notes available, the Jaguar F-Type is without a doubt a sublime performer. Still, there's always room to grow, and we are getting another good look from the Nurburgring at what's suspected to be an even more powerful version on the way. Spy shots of what was believed to be the Jaguar F-Type R-S first came out last spring. This time the roadster is practically uncamouflaged, though. The similarities are definitely there, and both test cars wear the same wheel design and quad-tailpipe rear diffuser. The latest one lacks the massive front splitter jutting out but gets a quite large, fixed trunk lid spoiler at the rear. You can also spot some large-diameter ceramic brake discs behind the wheels. The things happening under the bonnet might be even more interesting, though. To befit all of the exterior performance upgrades, Jaguar's supercharged 5.0-liter V8 is expected to nestle between the front wheels, and the mill is likely getting a boost in power to take output to 580 or even 600 horsepower, versus 550hp in standard form. Hopefully, the extra grunt makes the exhaust note even more intoxicating, as well.

Jaguar flagship J-Pace crossover due in 2021

Mon, Mar 25 2019

We've been talking about a Jaguar J-Pace crossover for four years. In 2016, the large luxury SUV version of the XJ sedan was expected to arrive this year and challenge the Audi Q8, BMW X7, and Mercedes GLS. More recent information from Autocar put the J-Pace's length at roughly 4.9 meters (193 inches), putting the English offering in a bracket with the Mercedes-Benz GLE and the Porsche Cayenne. Dynamics will be the priority, with the J-Pace intended to "beat the Porsche Cayenne at its own game." The Jaguar will supposedly do this with a novel hybrid powertrain arrangement on the launch vehicle. The new Ingenium turbocharged inline-six, expected to be the "mainstream" engine, will turn the front wheels, the rear axle turned by an electric motor. That setup will provide more interior room thanks to the lack of a center tunnel, as well as finer control of torque to the rear wheels for better bad-weather and soft-roading character. Autocar said electric and four-cylinder versions were possible although not confirmed. The magazine said traditional gasoline and diesel versions without the electric motor out back would likely come only in two-wheel drive. However, not only is the phrase "front-wheel drive Jaguar" a terrifically un-sexy string of words, but the Modular Longitudinal Architecture (MLA) platform has supposedly been developed for rear-wheel- and all-wheel-drive cars. The Premium Transverse Architecture (PTA), an evolution of the aged D8 platform, supports the Range Rover Evoque, but all JLR products are planned to migrate to the MLA by 2025. The MLA will come in high-rise, mid-height, and low-rise versions. Products like the coming Range Rover and Defender will utilize the high-rise version. The J-Pace will use the mid-height MLA, along with the rumored Road Rover. The Jaguar F-Pace and Range Rover Velar take the low-rise PLA. These tiers would put a J-Pace roofline beneath the six-foot-two-inch-tall Range Rover and make for a sleeker appearance. Autocar also says that the J-Pace will have more luggage capacity than the Range Rover, quite the trick since the Jaguar won't be as tall and will be around six inches shorter. If it arrives in 2021, the shape could define the next stage in Jaguar design; the next-generation F-Pace has been predicted for 2022, so it could fall into line established by the big brother.

Jaguar Land Rover remains bullish on diesels

Wed, Sep 30 2015

Despite Volkswagen's recent diesel scandal, Jaguar Land Rover is pushing ahead with ambitious plans to roll out the technology across most of its lineup in the coming years. Jaguar and Land Rover will add diesel engine variants to every model in their lineups, except for the Jaguar F-Type sports car. Land Rover launched the Range Rover and Range Rover Sport with available 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 diesels, and together they have sold more than 330 units so far in September, their first month on sale in the United States. JLA officials say they've seen no fallout from VW's emissions problem and are adamant their diesels meet EPA standards. "That has been our strategy, and it is not changing," Joe Eberhardt, Jaguar Land Rover North America CEO, told the Automotive Press Association on Wednesday in Detroit. "You have to deal with the situations as they arrive. We are confident of diesel." Jaguar will get another diesel next year from its Ingenium engine family, which will initially be sold in the XE sedan and the F-Pace crossover. It's a turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder unit and makes 180 horsepower and 317 pound-feet of torque. A JLR spokesman said the Ingenium has not yet gone through the EPA certification process, and the diesel-powered models will arrive in the fall. Jaguar also plans to add diesel engines to the flagship XJ and XF sedans. Land Rovers, including the Discovery and Evoque, will also get diesel options, and the company estimates the technology will offer 20- to 30-percent improvements in fuel economy, depending on the vehicle. Eberhardt said it is "too soon to tell" if the diesel market will be weighed down by Volkswagen's situation. The German automaker admitted to cheating on emissions tests to make its diesel-powered cars appear to run cleaner than they actually do in real-world situations. The ensuing outrage forced longtime VW chief executive Martin Winterkorn to step down and prompted a reorganization of the company, which faces legal and regulatory action around the world. Still, Eberhardt maintains JLR is "very confident" in its diesels, which are part of its strategy to grow sales around the world. Land Rover has experienced rapid growth under the ownership of Indian conglomerate, Tata Motors, while Jaguar is set to revitalize its lineup with new entries like the XE and F-Pace to reach a broader market segment.
