1954 Jaguar xk-120 green w/red interior 61000 miles. This car has been in our family since 1961. When my father purchased the car it was white with red interior. Some years later after the car sat in the garage for a while he decided to have it restored. In the early 80`s he sent it to Kane Motor Cain North Kingston,R.I. for a chassis on restoration. I have many invoices to show the work done. The Interior, trunk and top were done by Bill Bassett Jaguar of Wyoming R.I..Since then the car has been in a heated garage. We would use the the car occasionally car shows, sunday rides, etc. The car is in excellent running condition.The body has some imperfections the hood has paint that has sunk into the body work and a few bubbles. The fenders, doors, rear quarters and trunk are fine.The front right fender under the side vent where the body rolls under is scraped, but can`t be seen unless you get under the car to see it. All the chrome is in good shape . The interior has almost no wear, just where the ignition key sits the key chain rubbed the leather bead a little. The leather on top of the two doors are a little dis colored. Last year the car had a small anti freeze leak so I went to Bill Bassett and purchased a new water pump,hose kit, original rebuilt radiator and installed them. While installing the water pump I noticed the motor mounts were a little worn so I replaced them and the ground strap also. One of the carburetor had a bad float so I replaced it. Also there is a tonneau cover and floor mats that Bill Bassett did. There is the original manual with a few pages missing, also the full service manual. The car has 15 inch wire wheels on it now. I have the original 16 inch painted wire wheels mounted on an old set of tires. My name is Orlando, cell phone # 401-523-5738 you can call if you have any questions between 5pm and 8 pm Monday thru Friday and 10am and 5pm Saturday and Sunday Eastern Standard Time.

Jaguar XK and F-Type meet for final sibling faceoff

Fri, 08 Aug 2014

There's nothing that real, dyed-in-the-wool car geeks love so much as to say "Old Car X is actually a lot better than New Car Y." For reasons that defy both logic and science, we all (your author included) are able to, almost simultaneously, bitch about needed advancements in current vehicles and then bemoan character lost in the next crop.
Mitsubishi Evo models have been supremely prone to this bifurcation of opinion in recent years (ask an Evo IX fanboy about the Evo X sometime... ), and performance cars wearing WRX, Mustang, and M3 badges have been deeply subject to it, as well.
The Jaguar XK and F-Type are not exactly in the same one-model, generational-changeover form as those mentioned above, but that doesn't mean that there aren't defenders of both the old dog and the new joint. Autocar seeks the truth of the matter in this new video, and we're just happy to come along for the ride. May the best sib win.

Jaguar Land Rover gives Lyft $25M and a fleet of cars

Mon, Jun 12 2017

Lyft recently raised $600 million in a massive funding round, and now we know that $25 million of that came from Jaguar Land Rover, via its mobility services subsidiary InMotion. The car maker's investment in Lyft goes beyond just funds, however; it's providing Lyft drivers with a fleet of Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles as part of the tie-up, and it's also going to work with the ride-hailing tech company on autonomous vehicle testing. This is yet another high-profile partner for Lyft after a spate of recent new collaborators, including Waymo and, just last week, Nutonomy. Now, Jaguar Land Rover is also joining the company's Open Platform for autonomous cars: The collaboration with InMotion will see the Jaguar Land Rover-owned company "develop and test its mobility services, including autonomous vehicles" using Lyft's platform. Lyft's ability to rapidly bring on a lot of partners in the car maker space, specifically around autonomy, may have a lot to do with rival Uber's ongoing problems, which now also include mounting calls for CEO Travis Kalanick to step back, at least temporarily, from his leadership role. Lyft has also been pretty clear about seeking to partner on autonomy, rather than pursue its own tech, which is likewise different from Uber's current approach. Uber, too, has brought automakers to the table around self-driving services and making use of its ride hailing platform for mobility service offerings. Both Uber and Lyft seem interested in being the layer that connects riders and these future services, and for automakers, it means leaving a complex and challenging part of the picture to partners with experience and expertise, rather than having to spin up that part of the tech business themselves. The fleet provision in the deal is also interesting, and suggests the partnership between the two could involve more strategic cooperative service offerings ahead of the advent of commercial self-driving tech. Lyft gaining more ground among automakers beyond longtime partner GM also explains why it was reported that the ride hailing company turned down overtures regarding a potential acquisition by the Detroit-based automaker.Written by Darrell Etherington for TechCrunch.Related Video:

This Jaguar D-Type is what you should spend your multimillion-dollar holiday bonus on

Tue, Dec 5 2017

The 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.
