1993 Jaguar Xjs - Beautiful All-original Classic Fully Loaded Coupe 4.0 6 Cyl on 2040-cars
San Francisco, California, United States
|
Selling my 1993 Jaguar XJS with 6 cylinder 4.0 engine.
This is by far the most noticeable car I have ever owned! No matter were I take it, it gets many compliments and just as many questions. It looks like a fully restored car from the 60s, but it is actually much younger. I even got a few offers to sell it during my Napa trip a few weeks ago. It runs, stops, turns - just the way it should. It is very low, so you sort of "fall" into its bucket seats, so it is something to get used to. It is not perfect, but very good for a 21 y.o. car: - clean CA title; - driver's seat is a bit weathered; - passenger seat is perfect, - rear seats are useless, so they have never been used; - dash is clean and has NO cracks; - the paint is original and almost perfect (just a few minor road nicks); - the headliner has been replaced last year and looks absolutely brand new; - the engine doesn't wobble and does not overheat (we took the car to Las Vegas last summer and had absolutely no issues); - "check engine" light is on, but it has been on for the last year. I have replaced everything I could to solve this issue and it is still on... not sure why; - I get about 18 miles per gallon in the city and 26 on the highway (it is very good for an old Jaguar). The tank capacity is 18 gallons, so the car makes it to Los Angeles w/o stops. The circumstances have changed and I have to let it go, but I am 100% this car will worth a lot of money in 10 years (ones it becomes classic). |

Motor Trend pits Aston V12 Vantage S against Jaguar XKR-S GT in battle of the Brits
Fri, 20 Dec 2013With the recent increase in higher-performance versions of already high-performance vehicles, like Mercedes-Benz and its AMG Black Series, the public is now gaining even greater access to speed and maneuverability. Two of the most recent sports cars to get their wicks turned up include the Jaguar XKR-S GT and the Aston Martin V12 Vantage S.
Both of these cars are the pinnacles of their lines, with the Jag lording over the XKR-S, XKR and XK while the Aston rules over the standard V8 Vantage S and V8 Vantage. Motor Trend has opted to pit the two rivals together for some thorough testing, and it just happened to bring along a few video cameras to capture all the action.
There's nearly 19 minutes of super hot sports car action below, so scroll down and enjoy.
Jaguar XJ220 hooned remotely by a kid
Sat, 31 Aug 2013The Tax the Rich crew has a knack for indulging in automotive fantasies and capturing it all on video, such as a tug-of-war battle between two Ferrari F50s, drifting a Ferrari Enzo on gravel roads and even powersliding a Rolls-Royce Phantom on a field of wet grass. This latest video features a Jaguar XJ220 and a kid with an iPad, who somehow is able to control the old supercar with the Apple product.
No, there's no app for that (yet), and we lied - the boy isn't actually controlling the car - but it sure is nice to see the XJ220 in all its turbocharged, six-cylinder glory doing donuts and sliding across a grassy field. It jolts us to see the old Jaguar - capable of 217 miles per hour and once described by Jeremy Clarkson as having no brakes and massive turbo lag - thrown about like a rally car, but then we never imagined anybody would abuse a Rolls-Royce like that either. We'll continue to leave the high-stakes antics to Tax the Rich - we're just glad somebody had the guts to behave so badly in such a valuable machine. What else were they made for?
Be sure to check out the video below, if you have a pulse.
The Jaguar E-Type Lightweight is back on the prowl after a few decades away
Sun, 17 Aug 2014Sometimes procrastination has its benefits. Jaguar originally planned to build a run of 18 E-Type Lightweights for racing in the '60s. However, it was only ever to complete 12 of them. It has taken all of the intervening decades to finally get back to the project and build the final run of new Lightweights. While Jag announced the plan recently, the first continuation model was unveiled during the Pebble Beach weekend.
Coming from Jaguar Land Rover's Special Operations unit, these cars are identical to the way they left the factory in the '60s. Jag is even using the same grade of aluminum for the bodies, and the cars are fully compliant for FIA historic racing. Power comes from an aluminum, 3.8-liter inline-six with about 300 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque routed through a four-speed manual gearbox. Who could guess that in 2014 someone could buy a brand new vehicle from a major manufacturer that comes with Weber carbs? Though, Lucas mechanical fuel injection is an option.
While they look old, these new E-types are also a wonder of modern technology. To get things just right, the company laser scanned an original car to create the new bodies. Check out the gallery from the unveiling to see this old cat on the prowl again.
