Hollywood, Florida, United States
1974 Jaguar E-Type-OTS-V12 This is one beautiful cat. A 1974 JAGUAR XKE or E-TYPE, OTS, Series III, V12 Roadster convertible with original hard top. Impeccable British racing green, black top and beige leather interior. Had it for 8 fantastic years in Florida. Always garaged and driven only on sunny days. It is a 4 speed manual, wire wheels, new tires, canvas top and much more. This car was treated like a baby, a real baby. Have to sell it since I just got a boat and wife will only allow one toy at a time. I want to sell this beauty to a caring individual that can use it and enjoy it more often than I can. The exterior is stunning. The paint is amazing and in fantastic condition. The chrome is shiny and bright. There is no corrosion. The car has a black canvas top that is in great condition with no rips or tears anywhere. The whole undercarriage has a protective coat to protect it further from the elements. This car has never seen rain, dust or salty roads. I personally traveled and purchased in 2005 after an exhaustive search throughout the country, for the best jag my money could buy. The V12 is strong, runs very smooth and drives fantastic. As any classic, it has very minor details that may need to be fixed to make it perfect. A small scratch on the interior side panel (my wife’s heels that almost caused a divorce), the drivers head rest and the drivers visor need foam filling. Exterior of fan heater assembly needs a little paint. Some other very minor details that will be fully disclosed to lucky buyer. I didn’t drive this jag more than a five hundred miles a year. Always properly serviced by the Jag Doctor in Ft. Lauderdale. During my tenure, changed the clutch, installed new exhaust system that produces an amazing sound. I just changed all the brake hoses, installed a modern and upgraded 2 fan and new radiator. It has a new upgraded starter. I also got rid of the useless air distribution pipes that improved the performance greatly. I have them in a box in case someone once to re-install them. The tires don’t have more than a thousand miles. It took me a while to take this step and made the very hard decision to sell this amazing car to someone that will enjoy this beauty and treat it with love and respect.

Jaguar may enter Formula E to advance electric portfolio
Mon, Dec 14 2015The FIA Formula E Championship looks poised to gain another major automaker. According to reports from the UK, Jaguar Land Rover is preparing to announce a new electric vehicle strategy this week. And that is tipped to include participation in the all-electric racing series. According to Sky News, Jaguar's electric racing program would give the British carmaker the opportunity to showcase its prowess in electric propulsion. Quoting an unnamed insider, the UK news service reported that Formula E "offers live testing for electrification technologies in areas such as batteries and drivetrains; that's why it looks valuable to them." The program would likely be launched in conjunction with Williams, the F1 team with which it partnered on development of the aborted C-X75 hybrid supercar project recently unearthed for a starring role in the latest James Bond film Spectre. Williams helped develop the battery system that powers the electric spec racer used in Formula E. The partnership could take over from the Trulli team that is expected to soon drop out of the series. JLR wouldn't be the first automaker to participate in electric racing. Audi supports the Abt team, Renault the e.Dams outfit, and PSA Peugeot Citroen's DS brand the Virgin Racing squad. Mercedes and Volvo have also been reported to be looking carefully at participation, while BMW provides support vehicles for the series. Jaguar participates in vintage racing and Land Rover runs the Bowler off-road racing series. However, the last time the company supported a top-level works racing program was between 2000 and 2004 when Jaguar Racing (the precursor to today's Red Bull team) competed in Formula One. It has since offered the XKR GT2 racer and has been rumored to be considering a return to sports car racing, but the trend towards electrification now appears to be driving the Formula E initiative instead. We're waiting to hear back on requests for comment from Jaguar. But Sky reports that an official announcement will be made on Tuesday, so watch this space. Related Video:

1955 Jaguar D-Type that won Le Mans sets $21.78 million record price at auction
Sun, Aug 21 2016There's simply no denying that the Jaguar D-Type is one of the most noteworthy race cars ever devised. Jaguar pioneered the use of the monocoque chassis design, and D-Types won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1955, 1956, and 1957. And with its bodywork pulled taught over the wheels, engine, and passenger compartment, not to mention the massive fin behind the driver's headrest, the D-Type also one of the most stunning. The car you see above, Jaguar D-Type chassis number XKD 501, won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1956, narrowly defeating a team from Aston Martin. Along the way, this D-Type completed 2,507.19 miles at an average speed of 104.47 miles per hour, and a maximum speed of 156.868 mph on the Mulsanne Straight. It was entered by the non-factory team Ecurie Ecosse, and therefore painted in the team's traditional Scottish blue with a white cross. That kind of provenance, coupled with its pristine original race-winning condition, makes XKD 501 extremely valuable. In fact, it just sold at RM Sotheby's Monterey auction for $21.78 million (a $19.8 million bid plus auction fees), making it the most expensive British automobile ever sold at auction. Take a gander at our high-res image gallery above to soak up all its low-slung goodness. Related Video:
