1986 Jaguar Xjs 2-door Coupe No Reserve! 5.3l V12 For Restoration Or Parts on 2040-cars
Southington, Connecticut, United States
Up for auction is a 1986 Jaguar XJS 2-door coupe, It has the 5.3L V-12 HE engine and GM 400 automatic transmission. I bought the car to fix-up a few years ago but didn't have the time to get involved in it. The interior is blue with a power moon roof. Front seats are worn in the typical places. The laquer on the wood trim is cracked and/or peeling in multiple places but the underlying wood appears good. There is rust along the bottom of the door edges, in the trunk under the battery tray area and on the fenders. There are also some dents from a tree limb. (Please see the pictures). The car drove, handled and shifted well the last time it was driven. It hasn't been started in a few years so at this point it's good to still fix up or be used as a parts car. It's being offered with NO RESERVE. At the time the engine ran rough and the ignition amplifier or a bad injector was suspected, but it was never fully diagnosed. I haven't inspected it, but expect the typical conditions from a sitting car in the brakes and fuel system as well. I've tried accurately represent the body and interior condition in the included pictures. This vehicle is being auctioned AS IS with no guarantees expressed or implied. If you have any additional questions or would like additional pictures or to arrange a viewing please contact me and I'll do my best to accommodate you. PLEASE BID ONLY IF YOU INTEND TO PURCHASE AND PICK UP THE CAR WITHIN 14 DAYS. $499.00 deposit is required via Pay Pal within 24 hours of the end of the auction. I'll also accept cash or a bank certified check from the U.S. Please make your financial arrangements ahead of time. Please note, I need the space freed in my driveway to work on other projects that are being held up. Arrangement and cost of transporting the vehicle is the buyer's responsibility. Please contact me at the auction close to arrange a time. The winning bidder must arrange to have the vehicle picked-up at their expense within 14 DAYS OF THE AUCTION CLOSE or forfeit the deposit. If there's an extreme condition preventing it contact me and I'll do my best to work with you.

Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee season 2 opens with Sarah Silverman and Jag E-Type
Sat, 15 Jun 2013Season Two of Jerry Seinfeld's Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee kicked this week in style. How much more style is there to be had than in a 1969 Jaguar XKE, after all? This time around, Seinfeld and Sarah Silverman spend some time driving around in the "slinky, sexy" Jag, talking comedy and then grabbing breakfast.
In addition to the kickoff of the show's second season, this episode also represents the start of a 24-episode sponsorship with Acura. The original deal promised short ads at the beginning and end of each episode, but this time around, Seinfeld "stumbles upon" a 2014 Acura RLX, which is obviously - and admittedly - the work of product integration. Scroll down to watch Seinfeld and Silverman exchange banter with the Jag's beauty as a happy backdrop.
Jaguar trademarks EV-Type nameplate
Mon, 17 Nov 2014Green may have been a popular color choice for the classic Jaguar E-Type, but even in Lightweight form (pictured above), it was hardly what you'd call environmentally friendly. Not by today's standards, anyway, with six-, eight- and twelve-cylinder engines displacing between 3.8 and 5.3 liters. But Jaguar looks to be preparing to revive the nameplate - or at least one similar - with a new electric vehicle in the works.
According to the latest intel, Jaguar has applied both in the US and in Europe to trademark the name EV-Type. The implication that it's developing an electric vehicle is clear, as is the reference to its iconic sports car of yore. But more than that, we don't know. We could be looking at an electric version of the current F-Type, a project to convert original E-Types to electric power or a different model altogether.
It wouldn't be the first time, of course, that we'd see Jaguar toying with the idea of electric propulsion. A couple of years ago, the British automaker demonstrated a plug-in hybrid XJ_e prototype, and showcased both the C-X16 and C-X75 concepts with advanced hybrid powertrains. But it has yet to put any such system into production, relying instead on the small diesels it sells in Europe to keep its carbon footprint small.
Jaguar may enter Formula E to advance electric portfolio
Mon, Dec 14 2015The FIA Formula E Championship looks poised to gain another major automaker. According to reports from the UK, Jaguar Land Rover is preparing to announce a new electric vehicle strategy this week. And that is tipped to include participation in the all-electric racing series. According to Sky News, Jaguar's electric racing program would give the British carmaker the opportunity to showcase its prowess in electric propulsion. Quoting an unnamed insider, the UK news service reported that Formula E "offers live testing for electrification technologies in areas such as batteries and drivetrains; that's why it looks valuable to them." The program would likely be launched in conjunction with Williams, the F1 team with which it partnered on development of the aborted C-X75 hybrid supercar project recently unearthed for a starring role in the latest James Bond film Spectre. Williams helped develop the battery system that powers the electric spec racer used in Formula E. The partnership could take over from the Trulli team that is expected to soon drop out of the series. JLR wouldn't be the first automaker to participate in electric racing. Audi supports the Abt team, Renault the e.Dams outfit, and PSA Peugeot Citroen's DS brand the Virgin Racing squad. Mercedes and Volvo have also been reported to be looking carefully at participation, while BMW provides support vehicles for the series. Jaguar participates in vintage racing and Land Rover runs the Bowler off-road racing series. However, the last time the company supported a top-level works racing program was between 2000 and 2004 when Jaguar Racing (the precursor to today's Red Bull team) competed in Formula One. It has since offered the XKR GT2 racer and has been rumored to be considering a return to sports car racing, but the trend towards electrification now appears to be driving the Formula E initiative instead. We're waiting to hear back on requests for comment from Jaguar. But Sky reports that an official announcement will be made on Tuesday, so watch this space. Related Video:
