DESCRIPTION
The Jaguar Mark II, first introduced in late 1959 as a replacement for the Mark I, was the second iteration of a four door saloon by the Coventry automaker. Sir William Lyons adage of “Grace…pace…space” had certainly been further tweaked from the Mark I, as the Mark II was even more elegant, faster and roomier than its predecessor! Offered with the standard host of luxury features expected from Jaguar, the car was available with three different versions of the XK engine ranging from a relatively tame 2.5L unit to a beefier 3.4L and all the way to the 3.8L cars, fitted standard with twin SU HD6 carburetors. The flagship 3.8 motor shared a block, crankshaft, rods and pistons with the XKE; it had one carburetor and 30 less hp. Inside, the car had even more burled walnut and leather, in addition to a revised heating system and 20% more greenhouse glass. The Mark I had a notoriously narrow rear track (4 inches narrower than the front) and the Mark II’s revised suspension geometries and live rear axle reduced the amicable difference.

Jaguar launched two new models in 1961: the Mark X (Mark 10) saloon and the wonderful E-Type. Both were fitted with triple SU carbs and newly developed independent rear suspension. It was at this point that Sir William Lyons decided that the Mark II could use updating to remain competitive in the market. Devised as a major redesign of the Mark II, the S-type adopted a medium scale version of the Mark X’s independent rear suspension, as well as a noticeably longer rear end and interior updates. Europe got the choice of 3.4 and 3.8 S-Types while the US only got the top range 3.8 S-Type, which shared its motor with the Mark II. Further differences from the Mark II included a revised 3.5 lock-to-lock Burman power steering rack, replacing the old 4.3 lock-to-lock unit that was criticized for being excessively slow. Further structural and cosmetic changes to accommodate the S-Type’s independent rear and widened 54” rear track added almost 350 pounds. To compensate, the center of gravity was lowered with a revised roofline and sleeker rear end. The single 14 US gallon fuel tank in the Mark II was replaced with dual 8 gallon fuel tanks so that the spare tire compartment could be lowered and centered. Inside, a smaller scale Mark X burled walnut dash with cupholder / tray table and parcel shelf were added as well as new controls for the once again revised heating system. Small, concealed armrests were added to the wider front seats that had new integrated fore/aft adjustment. The rear passengers were also treated to a center armrest and Mark X style folding picnic trays. On paper, the added weight of the S-Type looked as if it could really dampen the fun but performance figures of the time didn’t lie…the 3.8 S-Type with an Automatic transmission could muster 0-60 in 11.5 seconds and could go on to 116 mph! As a result, they were very popular for people on both sides of the law.

We are very excited to offer this 1965 Jaguar 3.8 S-Type saloon! Finished in Sherwood Green over Red Ambla upholstery, this Jaguar is sure to catch attention! Fitted with its original, numbers matching 3.8L motor with correct twin SU HD6 carbs, it also has the following factory options: Automatic transmission, AM/FM radio, Speed-hold and Chrome wire knock-off wheels! This car maintains standard features such as full Smiths gauges (speedometer/odometer, tachometer/clock, water temperature, oil pressure, fuel level and amps), Lucas day/night rear-view mirror, dual visors with passenger vanity mirror, four wheel disc brakes, Powr-Lok limited-slip rear end with 3.54 gearing, bumper guards, and seat belts. Looking closer, you will find original 1964 date-coded Triplex glass and the original owner’s manual.

While the car does run and drive, we are presenting the car as a project. The exterior of the car has been partially repainted and clear coated and the red interior appears to have been replaced at some point. Both are showing signs of wear and age, as is the burled walnut on the dash, which we believe to be original. This car has brand new chrome wire wheels wrapped in Michelin HydroEdge 205/70 R15 tires. The exterior chrome with the exception of the bumpers, is in decent shape; the door trim is shiny and smooth but the bumpers, hood trim, license plate surround, passenger front door handle and emblem will likely need redone. In the interior, the chrome is in excellent shape and all the wood on the doors, B-pillars and rear is all new. As mentioned, the dash appears original and untouched. In the trunk is an original wire wheel and a tool kit complete except for one screwdriver. Once warmed up, this Jaguar runs great, shifts smooth and has no trouble getting up to speed. The car comes with a plethora of service records including $18,801 in receipts and records since 2006. They were done at Autos of Europe, Inc of Manchester, MO and are as follows:

6/19/06 - $8,732.67 – Cooling system service, reseal intake manifold, repair rear subframe, brake fluid service, replace rear brakes and rotors, remove and install rear suspension, replace rear brake calipers, replace emergency brake system, install thermostat and repair housing, replace radiator and fuel hoses, differential service and reseal, remove and rebuild carbs, oil filter, replace tie rod ends, replace center line, repair shut-off valve and a transmission service.

11/29/07 - $4,172.67 – Adjust carb, replace tires, balance wheels, replace front brakes and rotors, repair front brake calipers, check and repair heater blower, remove and reinstall all rear wood panels.

9/28/12 - $2,467.31 – Oil change, check tire pressures, fluid top-off, carburetor float rebuild, remove fuel tank/inspect/seal/reinstall, remove and replace fuel cold sender, replace exhaust from the manifold back, powder coat manifold black.

The car presents a drivable project for a Jaguar enthusiast looking to restore a classic saloon! The odometer shows 80,086 miles and it is working. We believe these miles to be original but have no way of being certain. We would be more than happy to answer any additional questions and better explain any aspects of the car that may be of further interest! Thanks for looking!

Jaguar F-Type Project 7 takes the D-Type to the 21st Century

Sat, 16 Aug 2014

One of the many big name debuts during the 2014 Monterey car week is this, the Jaguar F-Type Project 7, a stunning roadster inspired by Jaguar's legendary, finned D-Type sports car.
The Project 7 expands on the already appealing F-Type Convertible formula, further boosting the Jaguar Land Rover 5.0-liter, supercharged V8 to its most potent form yet - 575 horsepower - making this the most powerful production Jag in history. So equipped, the Project 7 is more cheetah than jaguar, roaring to 60 miles per hour in a rapid 3.8 seconds before reaching its electronically limited peak speed of 186 miles per hour.
Prices for the F-Type Project 7 start at $165,000, with customer deliveries slated begin in spring of 2015.

Evil Brits star in Jaguar's first-ever Super Bowl commercial

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

Chrysler's Imported from Detroit commercial from Super Bowl XLV is one of the most powerful car commercials in recent memory, and Jaguar is taking a similar approach - albeit with a more villainous spin - for its first-ever Super Bowl spot titled Rendezvous. While Chrysler and Eminem focused on hometown cheerleading, Jaguar is using its $8 million (the going rate for a 60-second commercial in this year's game) to play up the Hollywood tradition of typecasting a Brit as the bad guy.
In the spot highlighting the all-new F-Type Coupe, Jaguar looked to director Tom Hooper (the man behind movies like The King's Speech and 2012's Les Misérables), who filmed on location in London with British bad guy actors Mark Strong, Ben Kingsley and Tom Hiddleston. As the commercial implies, Brits make perfect bad guys with their style, sound and power, which are all traits evident in the F-Type.
The commercial will air in the fourth quarter of this Sunday's game, but you can watch it now in the video posted below. Jaguar has also included a press release as well as a second behind-the-scenes video showing how the ad was made.

Jaguar details new Ingenium four-cylinder engines [w/video]

Mon, 29 Sep 2014

When Jaguar lifted the veil on its new XE sports sedan earlier this month, it only revealed details on one engine - that being the 3.0-liter supercharged V6 in the flagship XE S. But we already knew that the British automaker's new entry-level model will offer many other powertrain options, and now it has revealed a little more.
Jaguar has been developing a new family of 2.0-liter four-cylinder engines it calls Ingenium, which will be offered in a wide array of configurations and specifications. In advance of its debut at the upcoming Paris Motor Show, the Leaping Cat marque has announced the specifications of the two diesel versions. The first will offer 161 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque and some of the best environmental credentials on the market. There will also be a more potent version with 177 hp and 317 lb-ft, which Jaguar says is "one of the highest torque outputs in the class." Either way, both versions feature variable exhaust valve timing, cooled low-pressure exhaust gas recirculation and selective catalytic reduction technologies to help meet the stringent Euro 6 standards.
That's all well and fine, but considering that Jaguar doesn't offer diesels in North America, the chances of these oil-burners making their way Stateside seem slim. But if you watch the video below, you'll also find basic specs on their gasoline counterparts as well. Like the diesels, they're turbocharged and displace 2.0 liters, but in petrol form, they offer 197 hp and 206 lb-ft of torque, or 236 hp and 250 lb-ft.
