1994 Jaguar Xjs Convertible, 2+2, No Reserve on 2040-cars
Saint Helens, Oregon, United States
|
1994 Jaguar XJS 2+2 convertible, automatic, 110k miles. Clean OR title, current tags. Selling as I've purchased an XJR... which is a little more practical with kids. As anyone who knows the later XJSs will know - the back seats are more of a suggestion than actual seats. They're quite good for keeping boxes of things warm and cosy though.
This car was my daily driver up until a few weeks ago - I wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere. It has no overheating issues, the transmission is smooth, and it starts first time every time. The trip computer even works. Car needs nothing mechanically. Electrics all work, including the power top, power windows, power seats, and yes - even the power antenna. Cosmetically, the paint is pretty good - it looks great from ten feet away - as you'd expect from a 19 year old car, there are a few scratches here and there - there's one or two on the driver's door that have been touched up, and another on the rear quarter panel. I'm guessing it's been resprayed at some point in its life. The A/C works just fine (fairly rare for a convertible, apparently), but the heater takes an age to get warm on a cold day. The front lower spoiler has two 1" cracks in it. The interior headliner needs replacing. I had a new tan headliner made, which will come with the car - I haven't fitted it myself because.. well.. it's cold out. Other than that.. I'll let the photos speak for themselves. Yes, that is snow on the ground - it was 12F when I took the photos! Usual stuff.. I require a deposit within 24 hours of auction end and the balance within seven days. I'm happy to take PayPal for the deposit, but the balance must be paid in cash or by a verifiable bank check / other secured means. I can assist with loading/shipping and I'm happy to store for longer if prior arrangement has been made. Do please ask any and all questions.. it's a great car and I'd love to see it go to someone who can appreciate it... and who is capable of not bidding "by mistake".. twice. Thanks for reading! |

Junkyard Gem: 1990 Jaguar XJ-S Convertible
Sun, Aug 12 2018The Jaguar XJ-S sold for big money, cost big money to keep running, and depreciated hard once its edges got a bit rough. You'll still find examples of the XJ-S in the big American self-service yards nowadays, but this '90 is the first convertible I have found in many years. 4,715 1990 XJ-Ss were sold in the United States; I haven't been able to find a reliable figure for the number of convertibles, but it must have been small. That makes today's Junkyard Gem a real rarity— not as hard to find as a Ford Tempo All-Wheel-Drive, of course, but still a prize. Jaguar kept the 5.3-liter V12 in production from 1971 through 1992, and when it was running properly — which wasn't as often as XJ-S owners wished— it couldn't be beaten for smoothness. By 1990, Jaguar had switched from fuel injection by The Prince of Darkness to a system made by Magneti Marelli. This one is quite rough, and it shows signs of having been parked outdoors with the top down for a few years. Since you can buy nice examples for well under ten grand, restoring this one would have been a money-losing proposition. This content is hosted by a third party.

In it, Bunny Lebowski reveals that none of her toes have been cut off by kidnappers; some suspension of disbelief is required here, because Americans couldn't buy the '90 XJ-S with a manual transmission. Maybe it's a gray-market six-cylinder car. The price tag on a new 1990 XJ-S convertible was a stunning $57,000, which comes to about $113,000 in inflation-adjusted 2018 dollars. Still, BMW shoppers had to pay $70,000 for a new 750iL that year, and that V12-powered machine didn't even have a convertible top. This content is hosted by a third party.

This Jaguar D-Type is what you should spend your multimillion-dollar holiday bonus on
Tue, Dec 5 2017The end of the year is fast approaching, your holiday shopping is done, and the mutual fund you help manage is paying out some serious bonuses. What do you do with all that sweet cash? Well, if it's over seven figures, we suggest hanging on to it until January when it could help you buy this amazing 1954 Jaguar D-Type race car. The D-Type, for those of you unfamiliar, is Jaguar's famous race car that gave birth to the road-going XKSS, one of which was owned by Steve McQueen. The D-Type was known for its successes on the track, and frequent appearances at Le Mans, with a victory at the endurance race in 1956. This particular car also raced there in 1954 with the Jaguar factory team, and behind the wheel was Sir Stirling Moss. According to RM Sotheby's, it led the race for a major chunk, but eventually retired due to brake issues. The car was campaigned at other events through the year, and it also saw time at the hands of a privateer team that bought the car in 1955. Many decades later, the car is being offered for public sale for the first time in its life at the RM Sotheby's auction in Arizona, Jan. 18-19. According to the auction company, the car features the original body, chassis, drivetrain and suspension. Between the history and the originality, the company is expecting the car to bring between $12 million and $15 million, hence the reason this is probably just for those with seriously massive holiday bonuses. But if you have the means, you could do way worse than spending it on this Jaguar.

Jaguar says F-Type sales off to flying start
Fri, 31 May 2013As we noted in our recent first drive, Jaguar's luscious new F-Type roadster is a bit of a tweener in both size and cost, lining up in between rival Porsche's Boxster and 911. That one-for-two-segment strategy is showing early signs of paying off, with Automotive News reporting that half of the car's 2014 production allotment is already sold. We're not talking huge numbers - sports cars in this segment only "have a global annual volume of about 75,000 units and a market share of 0.1 percent," notes Jaguar brand director Adrian Hallmark. Yet the company figures the F-Type will work out to about 15 to 20 percent of its total volume of around 60,000 units.
From where we sit, this is all very encouraging news, but it's way too early to call the F-Type a smash hit. The sports car segment is known for its fickleness and its front-loaded sales curve, so the real measure of success will be how it fares over the next few years after early adopters get their cars. Jaguar will have to work to keep the F-Type fresh with new variants, and we hear it's prepared to do just that. The British luxury marque hasn't confirmed a hardtop coupe variant yet, but patent images and spy shots suggest one is on the way shortly, and it ought to extend the model's appeal greatly. A four-cylinder option and a manual transmission have also been rumored, and presumably Jaguar will eventually launch higher-performance R and R-S variants as it has done with various model lines, including its other sporty two door, the XK grand tourer.
