Up for auction is a beautiful Red 1985 Jaguar XJS Coupe. It was one of my grandfather's daily drivers for years. It is in excellent working order with about 112000 GENTLE miles. It has the usual minor issues associated with a Jaguar of this age. There are a few cracks on the wood dash. The leather is not cracked and in good shape. It also has the usual minor chips and dings. When my grandfather passed away in 2010, it was parked. Although I've been maintaining it by occasionally starting it and driving it, the AC has lost it's charge. The driver's window switch also needs cleaning (as all 80's jags do). That's all the bad. The car runs, shifts, drives like a new car. She has a brand new battery and the Yokohama tires have a lot of tread on them. Oh, I've also installed a cd changer in the glove box that looks and works nicely. It also has upgraded speakers. It has no issues passing smog. The car is currently non-opped so registration fees wouldn't pile up. The title is --clear--.
Please have a look at the photos as I've tried to be as open and honest as possible. Again, this was one of my grandfather's most loved cars and it needs to go to a good home as it will make an excellent daily driver.
Oh, one more thing, I can help arrange for shipping if needed -to the person who wins the auction- I won't, however, be answering questions like, "how much for shipping to...?" There are several internet-based auto transport companies who can provide a fast and competitive quote. Some advertise on hemmings and some advertise here on ebay. I'm willing to be flexible for loading times. The pickup location is 95023. I hope that's clear enough:)
Happy Bidding!!

Jay Leno hits the road in a 1951 Jaguar XK 120 Hot Rod
Thu, Feb 12 2015The 1951 Jaguar XK120 featured in this episode of Jay Leno's Garage might look vaguely like a classic Jag roadster at first, but underneath this cat is something completely different. It was built by Leno's buddy Jason Len of XK's Unlimited when he grew tired of keeping these convertibles stock, and this aluminum-bodied beast was the result. Practically the only major Jaguar part left is the engine. It's a tuned 3.8-liter inline six from an E-Type with Weber carbs that makes an estimated 300 horsepower out of some gorgeous side-exit exhausts. The mill is backed up to a BorgWarner five-speed manual. However, the big surprise is the chassis. In place of Jag's original solution, Len has a custom tubular space frame that he claims sheds some 1,000 pounds over the stock example. There are still some classic Jaguar touches left, though, such as the fin over the driver's head that is reminiscent of the D-Type, and both the wheels and gauges are replicas based on that classic racer. Of course the best part is watching Jay drive this Jag hot rod. This big cat really knows how to purr.
Hot Rod Garage series premieres with 700-hp big-block Jaguar XJ
Fri, 23 May 2014Roadkill hosts Mike Finnegan and David Freiburger have broken up - kinda - to spin off a new show, Hot Rod Garage, that mostly gives up the driveway and parking lot wrench work for the confines of a garage. We say kinda because while Finnegan is the primary host for Hot Rod Garage, Freiburger plays guest host and the new show starts off by wrenching on the Roadkill Draguar project car.
What's the Draguar? It's a 1974 Jaguar XJ12 that's about to be force-fed a 383-cubic-inch Chevrolet long-block engine with tidbits like Holley carbs, a Weiand 6-71 roots blower and a "custom WillBlow transmission," all good for about 700 horsepower. After that Finnegan gets into swapping parts on his wife's El Camino and some TIG welding lessons.
You can check out the first episode below. And in case you're worried, no, Roadkill isn't going away.
2016 Jaguar F-Type R at Monticello | AutoblogVR
Tue, Sep 27 2016This week we indulged in a bit of fun. We took one of our favorite sports cars, the 2016 Jaguar F-Type to Monticello Motor Club north of New York. Senior Editor Greg Migliore selected the 550-horsepower R variant and pushed this Jag to the limit at one of North America's prettiest tracks. He reveled in the supercharged V8's power and sound as he embraced Monticello's curves and long straightaways. Meanwhile, Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski had a similar experience. Kind of. He lapped Monticello in the 2016 Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR and then went off-roading at a challenging course nearby. It's the best of both worlds. He gets to soak in the blown V8 – but also gets to splatter a little mud. Each week, new episodes will launch on the AutoblogVR App. We'll preview them here on Autoblog, but for the full immersive experience, head over to the app, which you can download for free from the App store and Google Play.
