This is your chance to own a one of a kind Jaguar S-type V8. This car needs to have the timing chains and tensioners changed before it cant be driven. Included in this auction are all the genuine Jaguar Parts you will need to complete the job. EVERYTHING from gaskets to chains to bolts is included, if you dropped this car off at the dealership and they told you what all you needed you would have it here. All new gaskets even a new oil filter and antifreeze I bought everything. I bought all of these parts from my Jaguar dealership and they are authentic costing more that the Buy it Now price of this auction. I have had lots of things done to the car including a new transmission 2 years ago for $4,378.09. The car also has brand new shocks on it from where it was lowered. The lowering kit was H&R springs along with the new shocks. There is no wheel rub even with three people in the back seat. Fender sits about an inch off of front and rear fender wells. I also had a new thermostat and thermostat housing along with both breather houses replaced.  

The car was painted by a professional body shop not someone sitting in their garage with spray cans. The paint is SEM Hot Rod black. It is unique because it is flat black but it has a clear coat mixed in with the paint so your paint stays protected from the sun. It was painted about 3 years ago and pain is in great shape just the normal rock chips here and there. I replaced the upper and lower grills on the Jaguar to give it the look of a S-Type R. The grills are made of thick steel and not cheap mesh. The headlights have chrome rings around them that go with the grills. The leaper on the hood was also replaced to go along with the grills and headlights. The taillights are also tinted with NIGHTSHADES but can easily be removed if you do not like it. Car has 19" Baccarat rims all the way around with removable chrome pieces. I got a flat tire and the 4th rim is in the trunk but car has a full sized spare on it.

Car comes with just about every option you could get, sunroof, CATS system, Sport mode option, Navigation, Wood interior.

The interior of the car is in great shape minus the drivers seat which is showing some wear as you would expect from a car that is 14 years old. The windows are tinted fairly dark and you will need to check with local laws to see if they are legal in your area. The battery is located in the trunk of the car and was replaced about a year ago. You could not even buy all of the timing chain parts from jaguar for the buy it now price. Just so you know what kind of a deal you are getting here is a list of what the parts on the car and timing components cost me:

Transmission $4739

Thermostat and housing $300

Timing Parts $2800

Paint job $3100

Chrome Grilles $300

Shocks and lowering spring $800

Chrome Headlight Bezels $80

New Leaper $130

New Headliner $475

Tinted windows $130

Rims $1200

Thermostat and housing $300

HID Headlights and fog lights $200

That's $14,554 all the saving passed on to you.

This is a mechanics delight or someone else who is a bit more savy than me with cars. The certified Jaguar mechanic I had look at it said it can be swapped out in a day and ready to run but I do not have the time or money to fix it right now so I think it should go to someone else who would appreciate it. I am sad to sell is because it is my favorite of all my cars but I do not have a choice.

I have done my best to describe the car to you if you have any questions feel free to ask . I will help with shipping in any way possible. Good Luck and happy Bidding.

Jaguar design boss Callum reinterprets classic Mark 2 for himself [w/video]

Fri, 29 Aug 2014

As the man behind the styling of basically every Jaguar since the mid 2000s, two things should be known about Ian Callum - he's a big fan of the brand, and he can bloody well get whatever kind of Jag he wants.
His newest car, though, is not what you might expect. Rather than an F-Type or an XJ, Callum has gone old school, and commissioned a custom, resto-modded Jaguar Mark 2.
Designed by Callum and built by Classic Motor Cars in Shropshire, England, the Mark 2 was an 18-month project between the designer and the garage. The essentially new car draws its power from a 4.3-liter engine that's been pilfered and modified from an XK. It's mated to a five-speed manual transmission.

Jaguar Land Rover calling in 100k vehicles in three separate campaigns

Sun, Feb 8 2015

Jaguar Land Rover is recalling an estimated 104,114 vehicles in three separate campaigns in cooperation with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The largest of them affects Range Rovers made between April 15, 2005, and September 4, 2012, covering 74,648 units in America from the 2006 to 2012 model years. In those affected vehicles, the front brake hose could rupture, leaking brake fluid and decreasing the capability of the brakes to, you know... stop the vehicle. In a similar but separate recall, subsequent Range Rovers from the 2013 and 2014 model years (manufactured between August 16, 2012, and January 8, 2014) are also being recalled for a brake issue – this time due to the incorrect routing of the brake vacuum hose. The issue could wear down the hose and disable the power assist, again impeding the brakes from properly functioning. This second recall also affects the 2014 Range Rover Sport (specifically those manufactured between May 7, 2013, and January 8, 2014), affecting 24,679 units between both models across the United States. A third smaller recall concerns the 2012-2015 Jaguar XK – namely those built between March 4, 2011, and March 20, 2014. This campaign involves the front side parking lamps, which might switch off after about five minutes, in contravention of federal standards. As such, an estimated 4,787 units are being called in. In all three cases, owners of the affected vehicles can expect to hear from their local dealer to arrange to bring in their wayward British luxury vehicles to have the relevant issue fixed. RECALL Subject : Front Brake Hose(s) may Rupture Report Receipt Date: JAN 27, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V039000 Component(s): SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC Potential Number of Units Affected: 74,648 Manufacturer: Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC SUMMARY: Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC (Land Rover) is recalling certain model year 2006-2012 Land Rover Range Rover vehicles manufactured April 15, 2005, to September 4, 2012. One or both of the flexible front brake hoses may rupture causing loss of brake fluid. CONSEQUENCE: If one or both of the flexible brake hoses fails, the vehicle may require a longer distance to stop, increasing the risk of a crash. REMEDY: Land Rover will notify owners, and dealers will replace the left and right front brake hoses, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin March 13, 2015. Owners may contact Land Rover customer service at 1-800-637-6837.

Editors' Choice: Top Five 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show Debuts

Thu, Sep 17 2015

Consider the 2015-16 auto show season officially kicked off. The Frankfurt Motor Show offered a great look at the newest crop of production cars and conceptual machines, and brought some old favorites back into the spotlight for a closer look. (The Alfa Romeo Giulia, for example, debuted in June, but this was the first time most of us saw it.) Now that the dust has settled and we're all on flights back to the US, our editors cast their votes for their personal favorites from the Frankfurt show. These are the cars we truly loved seeing the most. But unlike other shows, there was no one runaway winner – all of the Top Five received positive praise from our team. We won't spoil the results, though. Scroll down to see what we liked most from this year's Frankfurt expo. 5th Place – MERCEDES-BENZ IAA CONCEPT View 12 Photos MIKE AUSTIN: The clean lines on this concept have me excited for a more elegant beauty to future Mercedes-Benz vehicles. Next to the Concept IAA, the lovely S-Class Coupe looks like an overstyled barge. DAVID GLUCKMAN: Yeah, the extendable rear is neat and all, but I'm more interested in the front-end styling of this one. It looks like the Tron version of a 300SL, in a good way. I'm hopeful it portends the future of Mercedes design. STEVEN EWING: I was super impressed when Mercedes said that, with the rear end extended, this concept has a drag coefficient of just 0.19. That's crazy aerodynamic. I'm not head-over-heels about the styling, but I think the lessons learned from this concept are really important, and will play a huge role in the future of Mercedes' products. 4th Place – ALFA ROMEO GIULIA View 15 Photos SEYTH MIERSMA: I can hardly express how in love with this car I am. The styling feels creative, modern, and evocative, without going over the top. The proposed performance is spectacular. And the Alfa badge speaks to a legacy of romantic motoring. DAVID GLUCKMAN: Pretty Italian car makes big promises and will probably deliver on about three quarters of them. I think that will still be enough for me. JEREMY KORZENIEWSKI: I'm really intrigued by the Giulia. It looks great, sounds awesome, and I'm expecting it to have a load more character than its German rivals. I hope I'm not disappointed. 3rd Place – JAGUAR F-PACE View 15 Photos GREG MIGLIORE: It's the first SUV for Jaguar, and I think they nailed the design, capability, and electronics. It's the right car at the right time.
