Jaguar E-type 1968 Convertible on 2040-cars
Bend, Oregon, United States
|
I am selling my cherished Jaguar E-Type after 7 years of summer only driving. The Jag was restored between 1998 - 2000 and in again 2008. It has been driven only in the summer, never in the rain. The body was fully restored using Martin Robey panels. The interior was completely replaced with a complete interior kit from Bartlet of Ohio. The engine received a top-end rebuild. Engine is fed by 3 SU's fully rebuilt by Apple Hydraulics. All bright work has either been replaced or re-chromed. The Jag was restored to originally specifications with the exception of the following modifications: gear reduction starter, new Cool Cat fans, contemporary sound, Mallory electronic ignition and spin-off oil filter. This car is an above average driver and will be a real joy to the new owner as it has been for me. The Jag has taken first place in multiple car shows. During the 2008 work, the clutch was replaced, the hand brake assembly was completely rebuilt and new brakes were installed all around. Also in 2008 the original 5" chrome wires were in poor shape and were replaced by 6" Hendrix wires with new chrome knock-offs and new Pirelli tires, all body panels were pulled and repainted by Autowerks; the switches and gauges were replaced or made operable, all seals, hoses, clamps, rubber etc. were replaced. Car maintains perfect factory oil pressure, water temperature and idle RPM. Engine block stamp # is 7R108629, body picture frame # is 1E17618. I have over $40,000 in repair/rebuild invoices from 2008-2009. Feel free to email or call me with questions peter@lowescp.com (541)788-2444.

2014 Jaguar XJR unleashed just ahead of New York show [w/video]
Tue, 26 Mar 2013Just a week after teasing us with the first image of the car, and mere hours before revealing it to the public at the New York Auto Show, Jaguar has pulled the wraps off of its 2014 XJR super sedan.
The British automaker has confirmed that the XJR will be kicking out a full 550-horsepower and 502 pound-feet of torque from its supercharged 5.0-liter V8, affording the sedan a 0-60 mile per hour sprint of 4.4 seconds and a top speed of 174 miles per hour. A ZF eight-speed automatic transmission will still allow for respectable fuel economy, as Jag estimates ratings of 15 miles per gallon city and 23 highway.
Newly tuned dampers and stiffer spring rates, along with an electronically controlled differential should ensure that the massive power of the engine isn't wasted in transition to the road. Jaguar has also tweaked steering software and hydraulics, with the goal of increased road feel, response and overall feedback. 20-inch signature wheels carry wide Pirelli rubber (265-section up front, 295 in back) to keep the XJR planted.
Jaguar Land Rover creates new Special Operations division for halo vehicles, bespoke commissions
Fri, 13 Jun 2014Jaguar Land Rover has announced that a new division of the British manufacturer will be dedicated to "bespoke commissions," as well as heritage products and apparel. Oh, and the new Special Operations division will also be behind JLR's halo cars from now on.
It's that last one that is the most tantalizing, as the last real halo product to see production from Jaguar was the XJ220. The Range Rover, meanwhile, has always had its own kind of halo reputation, although the Land Rover brand itself has never really gotten into the game with a dedicated model.
According to JLR, the new halo models will focus on ultra-high performance and luxury with a limited run of vehicles. The bespoke models, meanwhile, will give the wealthiest customers full sway over how vehicles are outfitted, with unique paints, trims and other accessories. The new SpecOps division will be run by John Edwards.
Land Rover wins legal battle over Evoque clone Land Wind X7
Fri, Mar 22 2019Luxury carmaker Jaguar Land Rover, part of Tata Motors Ltd, said it won a case in China against local rival Jiangling Motors Corp for making cars that copy features of Range Rover Evoque. Beijing Chaoyang District Court said on Friday that Evoque, whose latest model was launched in 2018, had five unique features that were copied directly in the Land Wind X7 built by Jiangling Motors, leading to widespread consumer confusion. The court ruled that all sales, manufacturing and marketing of the Land Wind X7 must stop immediately and Jaguar Land Rover be paid compensation. The two sports utility vehicles have a similar shape, with the roof and windows tapering from front to back, and near-identical tail lights and character lines on the side panelling. Britain's biggest carmaker had sued Jiangling in a rare move in 2016. Despite widespread and often blatant copying, global automakers generally don't take legal action in China as they feel the odds of winning against local firms are low. Also, a lawsuit can be bad for branding if the Chinese public think a foreign company is bullying domestic competitors. The new Range Rover Evoque will be launched in China in April 2019. Jiangling could not be immediately reached for comment.
