1994 Jaguar Xjs Base Convertible 2-door 4.0l on 2040-cars
Saint Louis, Missouri, United States
|
For sale is my beautiful 1994 Jaguar XJS 2+2 convertible. I
am selling this car due to my impending move to Rhode Island, where the climate
isn't quite convertible friendly and I won't have a garage. While not a competitive show car, it is
definitely a head-turning daily driver. The straight-6 motor does not leak oil,
nor does it blow smoke -- common faults familiar to Jaguar enthusiasts. It also maintains idle at 650rpm. The interior and convertible top were replaced by the
previous owner (I bought this car in the Fall of 2011) prior to my
purchase. All of the hoses in the engine
bay were also replaced by the previous owner. The car has been covered and
garaged since I purchased it, and has only been out in the rain on two
occasions. Goods: -- Power windows, seats, and locks still function properly,
as does the automatic antenna. Power
side-view mirrors and seat heaters still work.
You'll note from the pictures that the car comes with a full-size spare
tire on a matching wheel. Tires aren't
new, but have lots of tread left on them.
The 4.0L straight-6 still has plenty of power and is a pleasure to drive
on highways and curvy roads alike.
Battery is < 1yr old. Others: -- Car could use new motor mounts (relatively cheap fix...at
approximately $65). The automatic
convertible top still works, but the pump motor has a leak that I've been
unable to stop. A replacement motor
costs about $350, and takes about 30min to swap out. The car could probably also use some new
front brakes. Air conditioner could use a refill, as it doesn't cope well with especially hot days. Cruise control does not work, and I have never bothered to investigate why. Extras: -- Car comes with an all-weather cover if you don’t have a
garage or haven’t carved out the space yet for a weekend driver in your
garage. Has a custom cover for the
convertible top for those days when you’re going to have to top down all
day. Previous owner mistook blown fuse
for a faulty radio, and purchased a second OEM Jaguar-correct radio and
corresponding security pin…so in the event that the original radio ever goes
bad you’ll have a second one ready to install. |

Jaguar riffs on Super Bowl ad with new F-Type Coupe web short
Thu, 03 Apr 2014Continuing the story of black hearts it began with its first Super Bowl commercial, Jaguar is roaring down the dark and oh-so-magnificently appealing road of villainy with a new spot featuring Tom Hiddleston. Using its new F-Type Coupe to demonstrate, the actor explains the salient features of the best - meaning, English - villains.
However, it's likely that even if you could manage the elegance, the tailored suit, the sharp wit and the distinct sound, you couldn't pull it all off nearly as well as Hiddleston. That doesn't mean you can't try, of course. Might we suggest starting with his excellent lesson in being properly villainous in the video below?
Jaguar producing short film starring Damian Lewis from Homeland [w/video]
Fri, 30 Nov 2012Jaguar is working up a short film to coincide with the US debut of the company's new F-Type. Desire will feature actor Damian Lewis in the lead role opposite Jordi Molla as the main villain in the story. The whole of the action will take place against the picturesque backdrop of the Chilean desert with filming starting early next month. According to Jaguar, the story will follow Lewis as he plays Clark, a man who delivers cars for living. Things get exciting when he crosses paths with a young woman played by Shannyn Sossamon.
With music by Lana Del Rey and some serious production value, Desire sounds keen to take its place among great automotive advertising short films like the BMW Driver series. Jaguar has released a quick teaser, which you can check out by heading over to the F-Type site. You may also take a peek at the full press release below for more information. Expect to see the film debut early next year.
Jaguar opens new engine plant in the UK
Thu, 30 Oct 2014The heads of Jaguar Land Rover are having a busy couple of weeks opening factories. Just days after inaugurating the company's first overseas plant in China, the automaker's new Engine Manufacturing Center in the UK is being inaugurated, as well. The plant near Wolverhampton, England, marks the first time in decades that JLR is building its own powerplants in-house. Further signaling the importance of this launch for the business, Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip were on hand and even tweeted about it.
The factory's first major project is to build JLR's latest Ingenium four-cylinders, starting with the 2.0-liter diesel version. "Our new Engine Manufacturing Centre is an important step in advancing the competitiveness and capability of the UK automotive sector. The production of in-house engines will support the expansion of the UK supply chain providing critical mass for inward investment," said Trevor Leeks, plant operations director in the automaker's announcement.
Opening the doors to the Engine Manufacturing Center has been years in the making for JLR. The plant was first announced in September 2011 and broke ground in June 2012. Building it cost the company 500 million pounds ($800 million) and created 1,400 new jobs. Of course, being a state-of-the-art factory, considerations were made to make the place as energy efficient as possible. That meant installing the UK's largest solar array with 21,000 panels to produce about 30 percent of the site's electricity needs.
