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). |

Jaguar XFR-S is motor-porn on a mountain road
Tue, 04 Dec 2012The 2014 Jaguar XFR-S might have only been good enough to take the runner-up spot in our Editor's Choice top five debuts at the LA Auto Show, but we'd be hard-pressed to find a car with a more exhilarating exhaust note. As proof of this, Jaguar released a video showing the XFR-S tearing up a windy, European mountain road in close to a minute of hardcore driving footage.
The big blue cat has the same great exhaust note of the XKR-S, and the driver puts all of the car's 550 horsepower to work demonstrating the handling - and drifting - abilities of the new XFR-S. If there's any disappointment to be had, it's the fact that you have to jump to the 30-second mark of the video for any of the action to start.
Scroll down to watch the video, and be sure your speakers are turned all the way up.
Reliving the Jaguar XJ220 with a father-son duo
Sat, Mar 14 2015Jaguar may have canceled the C-X75 project, but there was a time when the Leaping Cat marque did make supercars. Sure, there were the XJR-9 and XJR-15 homologation specials made by TWR, but more famous was the XJ220. Although its reign may have lasted only a year before the McLaren F1 came along, for a brief time in the early 1990s, the XJ220 was the fastest car in the world – which is even more impressive when you consider that it was only powered by a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 when its rivals were using mostly V8s and V12s. That makes the XJ220 a rather noteworthy supercar from the dawn of the 200-mph era. The thing is, while Jaguar has come to embrace the XJ220 as an exceptional part of its history, it doesn't have the time or energy to devote to servicing the 275 that were made between 1992 and 1994. So it turns to Don Law Racing. The father-son team – made up of a master mechanic and his hot-shoe offspring – is tasked with keeping the XJ220 alive both in body and in spirit, and do so with a great deal of well-deserved pride. Drive went out to their workshop in Staffordshire to tell their story.
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.
