Up for sale is a 1982 jaguar xjs that was converted from a v 12 to a ford v 8, it currently has a 1993 ford 351 Windsor engine in it with a ford AOD transmission it has a ford wiring harness and ecu, ford steering column, ford gauges ford gas tank and probably a few other ford things I cant think of. This car does run and drive and stop, before I got it, it had been sitting in a dry garage for 5 years but started right up it needs some minor tinkering to make it perfect, the intake is something the previous owner made and it has a crack in it so it is getting a bit to much air when it runs, it would be best to either change it over to a carbureted setup or find a factory intake that fit, it also could use spark plugs just has a miss when it is running, exhaust sounds very nice, deep and not very loud, I have not dove it really any distance, around 30 miles at the most but transmission shifts fine, it stops good don't get hot the gauges work the ford speedometer says it has 220,000 miles but it don't, the engine and transmission don't either just the speedo was used out of a higher mileage truck, the engine don't have no odd ticks clicks knocks, nothing sounds out of the ordinary and with some new plugs it should run great. The gas tank and battery setup is not exactly the best in my eyes but could be changed, they are both located in the trunk, the gas tank don't leak as far as I can tell but when you open the trunk you can at times smell some gas fumes, I have had the tank all the way full and couldn't find a leak anywhere it might not be vented properly would be my only guess. the interior is in fair shape for its age needs some cleaning and some stitches need to be redone in the drivers seat but its not all tore up or beat up, the dash has some small cracks in it and could use a plate or something to cover where some of the original jag gauges were and could be made to look pretty nice with a little work, the windshield wipers work the electric windows work, and it has a sunroof, the body is in really nice shape it looks very clean underneath and only has a few small bubbles of rust starting on the rear quarters as shown in the pics, it has a older paintjob on it which don't look to bad but should possibly be redone in the future, one tail light lens has a crack, all windows are good no cracks or broken ones , if I forgot to mention something just ask me a question and I will be glad to give you an answer.

Jaguar Land Rover to cut output and jobs due to Brexit, diesel slump

Fri, Apr 13 2018

LONDON — Britain's biggest carmaker Jaguar Land Rover will cut around 1,000 jobs and production at two of its English factories due to a fall in sales caused by uncertainty around Brexit and confusion over diesel policy, a source told Reuters. Output will be cut at its central English Solihull and Castle Bromwich plants, affecting some 1,000 agency workers, the source said. A spokesman at Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) declined to comment on the number of jobs which would be lost but the firm said it would be making changes to its output plans. "In light of the continuing headwinds impacting the car industry, we are making some adjustments to our production schedules and the level of agency staff," the company said in a statement. It is not renewing the contracts of a number of agency staff at the Solihull site and would be informing staff on Monday of its plans for the 2018-19 financial year. In January, the firm said it would temporarily reduce production at its other British plant of Halewood later this year in response to weakening demand due to Brexit and tax hikes on diesel cars but did not detail any job losses. Jaguar sales are down 26 percent so far this year whilst Land Rover demand dropped 20 percent in its home market as buyers shun diesel, concerned over planned tax rises and possible bans and restrictions in several countries. "It's been obvious to everyone that sales have been dropping," the source said. British new car registrations have been falling for a year which the car industry body has partly blamed on weakening consumer confidence in the wake of the Brexit vote, after record demand in 2015 and 2016.

The diesel premium in our Jaguar XE quickly pays for itself

Thu, May 25 2017

Our long-term 2017 Jaguar XE 20d AWD recently returned from a 2,000-mile road trip. My wife and I took a few days to visit her family in Auburn, Alabama, and it was the first real chance anyone has had to stretch the Jaguar's legs outside of Michigan. It was also a good opportunity to see what sort of fuel economy I could wring out of the XE's 2.0-liter turbocharged diesel. The diesel engine was the main reason I chose it over our equally lovely long-term 2017 Audi A4. For me, chasing fuel economy is a great way to stay focused on the road. The XE 20d AWD is rated at 30 city/40 highway and 34 combined. The drive to and from Auburn is almost entirely highway, so I knew matching the highway rating would be easy enough. The XE has a 14.8 gallon tank, so I was looking at a minimum of 600 miles per tank and four fills for the trip, counting the initial pre-departure fill. I had two main concerns: first, this was a new route, so I didn't know how available diesel would be along I-75; second, crossing the Appalachian Mountains was going to severely cut into my overall average. The first worry turned out to be a nonissue, especially as we went further south. Not once was I forced to go from station to station looking for a lone green-handled pump. People in the South love their Cummins, Powerstroke, and Duramax-powered trucks, meaning diesel pumps were plentiful. Rolling up in a Jaguar does garner attention, though. An older gentleman even asked if I knew that I was putting diesel in the car. It seems he didn't have much faith in my reading comprehension skills. The mountains were more of a problem. There was literally no getting around them, but were west of the highest parts, so it could have been worse. The indicated fuel economy dropped by 4 mpg on the way up, from 47 mpg to 43. Still, I managed more than 650 miles from a tank, though I was starting to push my luck. We filled up for the short final leg. By the time we rolled into Auburn, the display indicated 44 mpg – pretty damn good, I'd say. It held there for the entire trip. Calculating the actual mileage revealed the computer was generous by 2 mpg, but that's par for the course. Few automakers display precise numbers. The relative ease of getting this sort of fuel economy was complemented by the price of diesel. At each one of my four stops, diesel cost less than premium, the required fuel in all of the XE's gasoline engines. According to AAA, the same is true nationwide.

James Bond Spectre villain to drive never-was Jaguar C-X75 supercar

Tue, Dec 16 2014

James Bond is used to being outgunned. Often working alone, 007 has developed a knack for taking out major criminal syndicates and terrorists despite this routine disadvantage. But in his latest film, Spectre, we suspect Mr. Bond will have met his match in at least one regard – the car being driven by his nemesis, Franz Oberhauser, played by Christoph Waltz. For the 24th Bond flick, Spectre, the chief baddie will reportedly be driving the oft-fancied Jaguar C-X75 Concept car, which will star opposite of the hero's new Aston Martin DB10. As you'll recall, Jaguar flirted with actually producing the C-X75 before calling it off just over two years ago. According to Autocar, which spoke to people involved in the film's production, Herr Oberhauser's C-X75 will be powered by Jaguar Land Rover's popular 5.0-liter, supercharged V8, rather than its original complex hybrid powertrain (which relied on four electric motors recharged by a pair of diesel-fueled micro gas turbines). Jaguar would not confirm its role in the upcoming film, although Autocar has pieced together a few powerful signs that the company will be donating the services of its concept to the new flick. First, supplying the villain's car for the latest Bond film fits in nicely with the company's "Good to be Bad" campaign, despite the fact that the villain, in this instance, is Austrian, rather than British. Moreover, Autocar points to Aston's use of the tagline "It's good to be Bond" since the reveal of the new DB10, as an indication that the Jag will be opposing its former corporate cousin in Spectre.
