1990 Jaguar Xjs V12 Convertible on 2040-cars
Bedford, New York, United States
Greetings! I have decided to sell my 1990 Jaguar XJS Convertible. You may say to yourself, oh! another XJS for sale. Well! I follow the XJS market very closely. There once was a time you could have any E type you wanted for these prices also. This is a
wonderful car and will serve its new owner for years to come. This is
the fourth XJS that I have owned, and definitely the finest one! 1990
was the final full year of production of this model with the beautiful
round English headlights, shortened tail lights, and of course the final
refinement of the 5.3 V12 engine. 1990 was the first year to introduce a
driver's airbag and tilting steering column. The car is finished in Old
English White with tan Connolly hides. The interior is totally original
and in spectacular condition. The seats show beautiful natural patina for
a car of its age, but still look fresh and new. The wilton carpeting
and beautiful German tan canvas top show perfectly. The car has fewer
than 84,000 miles and two previous owners. This is an unaltered car. It
enjoys its original interior, carpeting, glass, radio, etc. The door panels have never been cut so as to instal larger speakers. I have seen them with boom boxes on the rear sill! The body has
never completely been re-sprayed. The car enjoys its original paint in
areas which include the hood, door jams, engine compartment, and trunk
areas. Again this is just a great looking car with the proper amount of wear and use. Of course, the car has never had an accident, nor has it ever
been rusted.
Thankfully, the car enjoys its original lattice style 15 inch wheels with matching brand-new tires, including the spare. The car has never been bastardized by the installation of body side moldings, CB or cell antennas, and most importantly, the car was never fitted with those god awful fender flare trim moldings. The windows have never been tinted. This is just a wonderful car to watch appreciate, and enjoy as time passes. Feel free to contact me at (914) 403-1768. The car is located in the scenic hamlet of Bedford Village, NY, just west of Stamford CT. For you New Yorkers, you might be comforted by the fact that Bedford lies only 42 miles north of Times Square. Tools, owners manual, boot, boot bag, tire cover, etc., all included.In closing, I am a seasoned collector of only fine cars. I began my hobby in 1978 when as a 24 year old man, I had the good fortune to study with one of the greats, Ed Jurist, owner of the Vintage Car Store in Nyack NY. Mr. Jurist taught me life lessons. Only start with good examples, and with marques and models which inspire emotion to its owner. ( actually we are really stewards of these properties. one day they will be in other hands) This is why all these years later I follow his advice. Keep it original and as unrestored as possible. If you have transportation needs, feel free to contact my dear friend, Dave Lambert of Transport Masters in Boca Raton FL. He will gladly give you a free estimate for professional and courteous service. 561 504 7030. Lastly, I have used eBay for over ten years. My approval rating is 100%. I take this privilege quite seriously. Call me first. Come and see the car or send a representative to check it out. Thank you, John Louis. (914 403 1768) |

Jaguar working on lighter F-Type with C-X75's twin-charged engine?
Wed, 09 Jul 2014Every automaker has its own agenda when it comes to concept cars. Some roll them out just to showcase where it's heading. Others create them to gauge public opinion for a potential production model. Still others only showcase a concept car to preview a model that's already well underway. Jaguar is just such a company.
In the last several years, Coventry has only produced a handful of concept cars, and each of them - the C-X16 that foreshadowed the F-Type, the C-X17 that previews the upcoming crossover and Project 7 that is now entering limited production - has led straight to the introduction of a new, commercially available model. Except for one: the C-X75.
The extreme lightweight supercar was set to succeed the XJ220 with a number of advanced technologies, but unfortunately Jaguar ended up pulling the plug to watch from the sidelines as McLaren, Ferrari and Porsche got all the attention for their new hybrid hypercars. But that doesn't mean that some of the technologies initially developed for the C-X75 won't find their way into other Jaguar products.
Jaguar sculpture by RCA design students is a minimal beauty
Fri, 24 May 2013With its well-deserved reputation for high design, it is not particularly surprising to see Jaguar reaching outside of the automotive realm for future inspiration. To that end, the British automaker recently enlisted the talents of students at the Royal College of Art to create a piece of forward-looking, automotive-inspired sculpture.
The result of this project can be seen above; a sculpture created by RCA students Claire Miller and Ewan Gallimore, and unveiled to a small audience to kick off London's Clerkenwell Design Week. The spare and rather elegant form created by the talented pair absolutely harkens back to coupes from Jaguar's past as well as its present (read: F-Type) without aping any one model particularly.
In a press release, the artists had this to say about the work: "Our form relates to the Jaguar brand through its sculptural volumes, bespoke materials and visual lightness. These elements helped us to create a sculpture that aimed to display a seamless transition between interior and exterior space." Get a better look at the Jaguar artwork in the gallery above, or read through the press release, which follows.
This classic Jaguar XJ has a 720-hp ungentlemanly secret
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Forget Tawny Kitaen. If you want to make a Jaguar XJ rock, just do what this guy did: stuff a heavily modified and turbocharged General Motors V8 under the hood, and take it to the track.
The video calls this Series 1 XJ a sleeper, but with its open exhaust and obvious turbo whistle, the once-gentlemanly sedan is anything but. The owner says that the engine is GM LQ9 V8 that has been stroked to 402 cubic inches putting out around 720 horsepower with 12 pounds of boost (in standard form, this 6.0-liter V8 was used in the second-gen Cadillac Escalade). Check out the video below to see what that kind of power does for this classic Jaguar in the eighth-mile.
