1987 Jaguar Xjs-c V12 5.3l Automatic With 78,021 Miles, Runs But Needs Work on 2040-cars
Springfield, Oregon, United States
|
This is a 1987 Jaguar XJS-C with the V12 5.3L engine and an automatic transmission.
I have keys and title in hand. Will run but it sounds like it is only running on 10 or 11 cylinders, very ruff idle. Most likely bad distributor, spark plugs, or clogged injector. Transmission shifts into forward and reverse and seems to be working, but I have never driven it to find out. Has slow water leak on water reservoir, rest of the coolant system seems ok. Breaks have no fluid in them but arn't seized. Most of the electrical in the car works, some things need attention like windshield wipers and window motors. It is missing the driver side window, seams to have rails and motor still installed, just no glass. Driver side door handle is broken and needs replaced. Driver side interior door panel has been removed, probably because of window and door handle. door panel is still with the car. Headliner is bad and missing sections and some trim pieces. Seats are in ok condition, no major tears, the only hole is a 1" puncture in the driver side rear seat. The backs of the front seats have been removed for some reason, but they are with the car. Carpet was replaced with house carpet for some reason I do not know, that really needs replaced. Interior wood trim is oxidized and clear coat is flaking off. Just surface rust in scratches or dings and some interior pieces. The rest of the care is great for how long it sat. Not a lot of dents, two biggest are a ding in front passenger fender and one little one in passenger side running board. Paint is in ok shape, some fading, scratches, dings, and bubbles. Hood has a deep scratch in the center, looks like it was keyed and someone touched up the paint. Please feel free to email me if you have any further questions. |

CMC to produce limited run of Callum's Jaguar Mark 2 [w/video]
Thu, 04 Sep 2014We were a more than a little jealous when designer Ian Callum revealed his Jaguar Mark 2 restomod that he commissioned from Classic Motor Cars. It turns out that we weren't the only ones that dug it - the reaction was so great that CMC got Callum's permission to create a limited run of them for customers. Although, with prices quoted between £350,000 and £375,000 ($572,000 - $613,000), we doubt Ian needs to worry about seeing a copy of his creation pass him too soon.
"Within hours we had received calls from people all over the globe asking if they could buy one," said Peter Neumark, Chairman of CMC in the latest announcement. The reaction came as a surprise to Callum, who said he designed the car entirely to his own specifications and actually wasn't sure if people would like it.
Among Callum's many changes are new bumpers, wider front fenders with functional louvers and less chrome trim. Under the hood is a 4.3-liter six-cylinder fitted with two SU carbs putting out around 260 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque. It should be a much better driver too, with a completely re-engineered independent rear suspension, adjustable dampers at all four corners, improved brakes and a new rack and pinion steering system designed by CMC with electric assist.
Jaguar could yet offer more hardcore F-Type R-S
Mon, 25 Nov 2013Jaguar pulled a fast one on us all when it unexpectedly shoehorned all 550 horsepower of the 5.0-liter supercharged V8 from the XKR-S into the new F-Type Coupe to supersede the existing V8 S model with the F-Type R. But that's just the beginning, according to the latest intel coming from the UK.
According to Autocar, in speaking to Jaguar design director Ian Callum during the coupe's unveiling at the LA Auto Show, the British automaker could yet offer R-S and R-S GT versions of the F-Type. Just what mechanical changes those would bring when the F-Type R already packs the company's top engine remains to be seen, but given that the same engine also powers the flagship XJR performance saloon, we could envision Jaguar developing an even more powerful version for R-S versions of the little coupe and big sedan.
The GT version, meanwhile, would likely offer more extreme aero and a lighter form for the truly performance-obsessed. Considering that the new top-of-the-line F-Type is already pushing the hundred-grand mark, you can bet any R-S and R-S GT version would approach double the base F-Type's $65k sticker price.
Jaguar F-Type squares off against Porsche 911, Aston V8 Vantage with Chris Harris
Fri, 21 Jun 2013Chris Harris is back on the job, taking on really really difficult car questions like: Which enormously sexy and good-to-drive, high-performance convertible is the top of the heap? As one of the hottest cars in the luxury space right now, the Jaguar F-Type S is, of course, in on the action. Competition comes in the form of the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster and the Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet. Sun-loving CEOs who despise test-driving need look no further.
Scroll on below for a fully featured (with a running time of more than 20 minutes) comparison video. Harris does his best to entertain - in a typically nitpicky and made-up-British-words fashion - and the moving pictures are lovely to look at. Kick back, pour a pint and get your weekend started off right.
