1986 JAGUAR XJ-SC VERY RARE V12 AUTOMATIC CABRIOLET LOW MILES NEW SHOCKS 1986 Jaguar XJS XJS-C 2-Door Convertible
Vehicle Description THE VIN # FOR THIS CAR IS SAJJNACW4CC128271 .... E BAY DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THE VIN AS THE CAR WAS ORIGINALLY SOLD NEW IN GERMANY ... Created as successor to the legendary E-Type and the last model designed with input from the firm's founder, the legendary Sir William Lyons, the XJS is actually more than just a replacement. It is a Grand Tourer par excellence, the finest mode of transportation for two people wishing to travel fast and in style. Produced for over two decades, from 1975-1996, a few special iterations of the XJS have already attained classic car status, among them the rare XJSC, or "Cabriolet." Just 3,864 of these Landaulet-like, V12-powered Cabs were manufactured between 1983 and 1988, with a only a few hundred sold in the United States, in '86 and '87 only. The car presented here is a very special survivor, being an extremely low-mileage rust free Jaguar. As pampered as they come, it's truly a dream come true for the serious XJS-C connoisseur! Just serviced with recent waterpump and replaced (all 6) shock absorbers. Drives beauitfully and runs very well. Does show some age both inside and outside but a very nice affordable classic Jaguar that will go up in value. The dashboard wood is cracking and needs replacement or refurbishing, the seats and carpets are very good throughout but again show some age and wear. The two removable roof panels and the hard top "cap" have been recovered to a very high standard and the headliner on the two removable panels also recovered. there is no soft top with this car. The body is beautiful but does have some scratches and chips around the hood and fender edges. Tires are very good and the wheels are nearly perfect. Originally sold new in Germany and imported in to the USA in 1986. The car has a vin# that does not conform to all US vin decoders and some states may require and inspection before issuing a new title. The Carfax report is clean and the current Michigan title is a clean and fully assignable. In Michigan we do not have "smog" testing so I have no idea if the car will pass a test in your state if they have one. A very rare and beautiful car offered at a very affordable price - this is an E Bay only price please mention this ad when calling 1 810 487 0303 PLEASE CALL (810) 487-2020 WITH ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE PLEASE CALL (810) 487-2020 WITH ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE Sovereign Auto Purchasing LLC is a Michigan based auto dealer operating under Michigan License number B005324.

Jaguar XE bares its claws in 74 images [w/video]
Wed, 01 Oct 2014The XE may prove to be the most vital new model to Jaguar's expansion. But to date we've only really seen it in top-spec, supercharged XE S form. That ends right here and now, however, as Jaguar releases details, photos and even a brief video clip showing the entire range - including those most customers are bound to buy.
Globally speaking - or at least in its home market - Jaguar will offer the XE with five different engines and in four different trim levels. The new Ingenium engine family includes two diesels and two turbocharged gasoline options along with the top-of-the-line supercharged V6 that will serve as the XE's performance flagship model, at least until a new SVR version comes along. Both six-speed manual and eight-speed automatic transmissions are on offer, and overseas buyers will also be able to choose between base SE, mid-range Prestige, opulent Portfolio, dynamic R-Sport and range-topping S trim levels.
Of course not every engine is available in each trim level and with either transmission, so instead of 40 combinations we're looking at 22. Once the XE reaches American showrooms, we'll likely be looking at even fewer, as we're not expecting the manual and diesel versions to be offered Stateside. Stay tuned as well for our live impressions from the floor of the Paris Motor Show. But in the meantime you can scope out all the details and UK specifications in the press release below, along with the short video and the gallery of 74 high-resolution images above.
Jaguar considers BMW X1 fighter
Fri, May 15 2015It's no secret that the sub-compact crossover is the next big thing in the auto industry. From the Mazda CX-3, Honda HR-V, and Jeep Renegade to the Mercedes-Benz GLA, Audi Q3, and BMW X1, automakers the world over are pushing hard to get a piece of this brand-new pie. Autocar is reporting that Jaguar could soon join the ranks of them. While the manufacturer is hard at work on the new F-Pace, this new CUV would slot in below and could even be priced under the new entry level XE sedan. "A family [of CUVs] is not confirmed but we are investigating it," Steven de Ploey, Jaguar's brand director, told Autocar. "If we want to grow, a compact model is the obvious opportunity. The arguments about this are twofold. It has to be a Jaguar in design and performance, and it would be a challenge to do this. The second is the business, both in terms of scale and competition." While the brand may be toying around with the idea of a compact CUV, de Ploey points out that there are a number of issues preventing a vehicle below the F-Pace. "You'd not just be competing with premium brands but high-end mainstream manufacturers, too. There are lots of other things we have to do before this, but we have opportunities and permission to play there," de Ploey said. "There is also a cost challenge. We'd need a different architecture. What we have is scalable, but that low? You'd really have to investigate taking it down. You need to tick the box with the business case." Related Video:
Xcar focuses on famed Jaguar test driver Norman Dewis
Fri, Jun 26 2015If you have any interest at all in motoring history, especially when it comes to European sports car racing from the '50s and '60s, do absolutely whatever you can to set aside 38 minutes for this interview with former Jaguar test driver Norman Dewis from XCar. Dewis had a hand in developing the British brand's vehicles from 1952 to 1985, and as expected over that time, he amassed some fantastic stories. Xcar did a great job of teasing a few of those great tales out of him here. From the very beginning, Dewis was gifted with a natural talent to read a car as a test driver. When he was just 16, he was taken out on his first chance to evaluate a vehicle and picked out even more intricacies than his instructor. Dewis eventually wound up at Jaguar, and that's where his career really took off. Among his many accomplishments there, he had a role in developing disc brakes both for racing and the road, set multiple world top speed records, and helped bring the E-Type to the world. Dewis even made the famous overnight drive in an XKE convertible from England to display it at the Geneva Motor Show. Dewis tells a first-hand account of being in the Jaguar paddock during the tragic accident during the 1955 24 Hours of Le Mans that took the lives of dozens of spectators. It's a story that we usually can only read about or watch in black-and-white films. Hearing Dewis' side really brings this history to life.
