2001 Jaguar Vanden Plas Base Sedan 4-door 4.0l on 2040-cars
Wallkill, New York, United States
|
VandenPlas XJ8 in nice shape. New parts include an aluminum thermostat housing and a new plastic crossover pipe. New front suspension bushings, sway bar links, upper shock mounts, 1 upper and 1 lower ball joint , 4 new tires with less than 1000 miles on them. The brakes are good all the way around, with at least 1/2 life left. The underside of the car looks really nice too. No rust AT ALL. The car looks to have all original paint on a damge free body. I bought it from the original owner who paid $70,000 for it new. The rain sensing wipers, A/C, heated seats, cupholder, and moonroof are working good. Usually some or all of these items are broken or not working on these cars, but not this one. The leather on the seats is in nice shape, no rips, or rub through. The car does have the drooping headliner in the rear, and the 3rd brake light needs to be glued back onto the rear glass. There are a few minor cracks in the wood trim's clear coat, but better than most others I've owned. There are only lambs wool rugs on the right side floors. they are missing for the left side. The old owner didnt have them any more. This car has a steel lined engine, and updated timing chain tensioners, so those issues are not a concern on this car. Im only selling this car because I have an XJR, and dont need 2 jags. If i was going to keep it, I'd get it detailed to make it look even better, and get an alignment due to the new suspension parts installed. Ive put between 1000, and 2000 miles on the car since I've had it, and the check engine light only came on once, with the "check gas cap" message at the same time. This was due to the gas cap not being on tight. I put it on tightly and the light hasnt come on since. |

Jaguar readying SUV for Frankfurt debut
Thu, 01 Aug 2013In an effort to target higher-volume vehicle segments, Jaguar is getting ready to introduce its first-ever crossover, and Autoweek reports that we could see it debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September. We've heard in the past that the new Jaguar crossover could carry the name XQ, but the report also mentions that the Q-type name is still in the running (now wouldn't Audi just love that?).
A little more clear than the crossover's name, AW says the cargo-friendly Jaguar should ride on the same platform as the upcoming Jaguar XS compact sedan rather than using a Land Rover platform. As for the on-sale date, it still sounds like the XS will hit the roads first in 2015 with the crossover model due out in 2016.
Jaguar recalling XK Convertible and XF 2.0T sedan for unrelated issues
Fri, 16 Aug 2013Jaguar has announced that it will be recalling 1,989 XK Convertibles produced between October 1, 2010 and August 1, 2013. Model years ranging from 2011 to 2014 are part of the recall.
The issue has to do with one of the switches the switch that controls the opening and closing of the convertible top. The switch also has to do with the operation of the power windows. According to the Feds, the switch doesn't move down to close the power windows, meaning that the window could accidentally close on the finger or arm of an inattentive person.
In related news, Jaguar is also recalling 940 2013 XF sedans powered by the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine for a hose that can detach underhood, which could cause the engine to stall or could leave the driver without power steering or brakes.
Watch four hours of fantastic machinery at Le Mans Classic 2016
Tue, Jul 12 2016The 24 Hours of Le Mans came and went, but it wasn't the end of the automotive activities at Circuit de la Sarthe. This past weekend, the venerable racetrack was host to the 2016 Le Mans Classic, in which seven decades of vintage racecars once again competed for glory. The event started with qualifying on Friday, July 8, and racing on the following Saturday and Sunday. Six "grids" of cars each included a different historic racing era, including the early days from 1923 to 1939, as well as that famous period from 1966 to 1971 that featured the all-conquering Ford GT40. The wide range of eligibility also permitted some unusual machines to show up, such as a 1950 Cadillac Series 61 and a 1974 Dodge Charger. This year also marked the debut of the Group C class for more recent Le Mans racers from 1982 to 1993. The 1991 Le Mans-winning Mazda 787B was not present, but one of the Peugeot 905 race cars that gave the marque a remarkable 1-2-3 finish at the 1993 Le Mans came back for the event. The Le Mans Classic also featured the Jaguar Classic Challenge just for cars made by the feline automaker, and the race attracted a bit of human star power. Chris Harris of Top Gear participated in the marque-specific race while behind the wheel of a new continuation Lightweight E-Type. And although the event happened over the weekend, you can catch most of the action via the recorded live stream above. It features a full four hours of vintage racing with commentary in both French and English. It's a great chance to see one of the best combinations of classic cars and historic venues out there.
