I BOUGHT THIS ONE OWNER CALIFORNIA CLASSIC IN MARCH  2004. IT  HAD BEEN GARAGED IN PALM DESERT AND NOT STARTED FOR THE PREVIOUS 5 YEARS. IT WAS SHIPPED TO TEXAS AND HAS BEEN GARAGED, BUT STARTED AND DRIVEN SINCE. THE FUEL SYSTEM WAS FLUSHED AND THE CAR STARTED IMMEDIATELY WITH THE AID OF A NEW BATTERY. THE ENGINE IS STRONG AND THE CAR HAS BEEN DRIVEN UP TO 75 MPH WITH LOTS OF HEAD ROOM LEFT TO EXPLORE. THE FOLLOWING HAVE BEEN REPLACED: BATTERY, 4 NEW TIRES,NEW RIGHT POWER STEERING HOSE, SHOCK ABSORBER, SPARK PLUGS, FUEL PUMP AND FILTER, NEW OLD STOCK MUFFLER WITH 4 TUNED EXHAUST PIPES, RADIATOR CORE, RADIATOR FAN RELAY. THE FAN RELAY FAILED TO CORRECT AN OVERHEATING PROBLEM, SO THE FANS HAVE BEEN WIRED DIRECTLY TO THE IGNITION SWITCH SO THAT THEY TURN ON IMMEDIATELY WHEN THE KEY IS TURNED. PROBLEM SOLVED. ALSO PURCHASED ON EBAY WERE AN EXTRA SET OF RADIATOR FANS, SET OF FOUR STROMBERG CARBURETORS, A HOSE KIT - ALL OF WHICH WILL BE INCLUDED ALONG WITH A COLLECTION OF ROCK AND BLUES EIGHT TRACK TAPES WHICH CAN BE ENJOYED ON THE SOUND SYSTEM WHICH INCLUDES AM-FM RADIO AS WELL!  JOURNEY BACK IN TIME IN THIS GORGEOUS EXAMPLE OF SENSUOUS STYLING WITH A CLASSIC ROCK COLLECTION OF TAPES. I ALSO HAVE TWO SERVICE RECORDS FROM EDMUND'S JAGUAR/ROLLS ROYCE WHICH SHOW THE LOW MILEAGE OF LESS THAN 25,000 WHEN LAST SERVICED BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER IN 1998. IT WILL NEED SOME REPLACEMENT OF WINDOW GUIDES, SEALS, AND PERHAPS MORE HOSES. IT COULD BE RESTORED TO SHOW CONDITION IF DESIRED. IT WAS NOT SMOKED IN BY ME, BUT IT MAY HAVE BEEN IN THE LONG AGO PAST. THERE IS NO ODOR, BUT PERHAPS SOME GRIME ON THE SEATS? FOR SERIOUS INQUIRIES, I WILL BE HAPPY TO DISCUSS THE CONDITION OF THIS VEHICLE TO THE BEST OF MY PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE.

Jaguar Land Rover won't get a bailout from the UK

Sun, Aug 16 2020

Bailout talks between Jaguar Land Rover and Tata Steel with the UK government have ended, leaving both firms to rely on private financing to overcome the impact of coronavirus on business, the Financial Times reported on Friday. The report said that talks for an emergency funding fell through as Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) did not qualify for taxpayer support. It is the luxury car unit of India's Tata Motors and Tata Steel, both owned by Indian conglomerate Tata Group. The bailout plan, titled "Project Birch", had been authorized by Finance Minister Rishi Sunak in May to rescue companies that are seen as strategically important, with the Treasury saying it may step in to support crucial businesses on a "last resort" basis after other options run out. The report, citing a source familiar with the matter, said that the funding scheme became infeasible for Tata as it imposed strict conditions on any lending. "Tata Steel remains in ongoing and constructive talks with the UK Government on areas of potential support," Tata Steel said in an emailed statement. The UK Treasury said it would not comment on individual companies. Tata Motors did not immediately respond to request for comment.

Jaguar Land Rover mulling factory in Georgia?

Sat, Feb 7 2015

London's Sunday Times reported last October that Jaguar-Land Rover was sniffing around The South looking for a potential manufacturing site, and was "talking to several southern states." We imagine Georgia was one of them; The Peach State has Kia Motors Manufacturing in West Point, it claims Porsche HQ as a resident, and soon the Mercedes-Benz regional office, too. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has said that Governor Nathan Deal recently took the initiative to fly to the UK to "make prospect calls" with JLR executives about a deal. We don't have any details about the calls, but we'll guess that they involved Deal making a financial case for GA over other states while sipping a cup of tea. It's said that the English luxury maker wants to build a factory here with a 200,000-unit capacity, to take advantage of the same financial efficiencies that have planted other automakers in the US and Mexico; it opened a facility in China last year to build the Range Rover Evoque, Land Rover Discovery Sport, and the Jaguar XE, and is casting eyes over Brazilian and Saudi Arabian soil for other facilities. No timetable has been given for a decision.

Jaguar sculpture by RCA design students is a minimal beauty

Fri, 24 May 2013

With its well-deserved reputation for high design, it is not particularly surprising to see Jaguar reaching outside of the automotive realm for future inspiration. To that end, the British automaker recently enlisted the talents of students at the Royal College of Art to create a piece of forward-looking, automotive-inspired sculpture.
The result of this project can be seen above; a sculpture created by RCA students Claire Miller and Ewan Gallimore, and unveiled to a small audience to kick off London's Clerkenwell Design Week. The spare and rather elegant form created by the talented pair absolutely harkens back to coupes from Jaguar's past as well as its present (read: F-Type) without aping any one model particularly.
In a press release, the artists had this to say about the work: "Our form relates to the Jaguar brand through its sculptural volumes, bespoke materials and visual lightness. These elements helped us to create a sculpture that aimed to display a seamless transition between interior and exterior space." Get a better look at the Jaguar artwork in the gallery above, or read through the press release, which follows.
