1955 JAGUAR XK140 FHC. 70,343 Miles, Matching Numbers, Running engine, Complete and ready for restoration. Clear North Carolina in my name in hand. For your consideration is my 1955 Jaguar XK140 Fixed Head Coupe. I purchased the car 18 years ago and have kept it in inside storage. The individual I purchased it from, drove it into his garage and parked it ten years before I bought it. After making my living in the repair and restoration of Jaguar's, my life's course has changed and I will not be able to restore it. Engine # G 2230-8 The engine runs well, and has good oil pressure. (I am running it on an auxiliary fuel tank and pump. The fuel tank and lines need cleaning). Services just completed: Cooling system flushed, New Water Pump, Thermostat, Fan belt and Coolant. Points, condenser, rotor replaced. Carburetors rebuilt, new carb insulators. Oil changed (Castrol 20W-50), new oil filter. Gearbox # JL27193 The gearbox shifts and pulls in all gears. Shift knob missing. The Clutch works. Body # J4133 The body is in overall good condition with some rust on the door lower edges. The right door has had some minor body repair and the filler has fallen off. The rear fender front doglegs and sills were replaced by an amateur and shows! The inner sills and left battery supports need replacing. The car was originally White, and was painted Navy Blue. All the glass is good. The rear window chrome trim is in the trunk, but broken in the curve. The right window regulator needs replacing. The wheels are in good condition, and the tires hold air. The Interior is complete and all original. The seat slides operate. All wood and trim is intact. The headliner has a small rip. The sun visors are intact. Most of the Lucas electrical systems work! The car starts with the ignition switch and starter button. The warning lights and gauges work, instrument lighting works, most exterior lights work. Wipers work. The trunk has the Spare Wheel with hold down, Tire tool, Complete tool set, Jack and Grease gun. The tool for opening the spare wheel compartment and package shelf is in place. The chassis is solid, with only surface rust in some places. The Brake Hydraulics need replacing. The exhaust system needs replacing. Overall this is an excellent car for restoration. It is hard to find a Jaguar XK140 this original, so complete, and running. The washer bottle, original air filter assembly, reverse and right park light lens, and gear knob are the only items missing! I have done my best to accurately describe the car. Please don't hesitate to ask questions. Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. I will assist in whatever way necessary. A $500.00 Paypal deposit is due within 24 hours of auction end. Final payment must be made in Cash at time of pick up, or Bank Wire Transfer or Certified funds.

Porsche tops JD Power APEAL study for 12th time
Wed, Jul 27 2016JD Power's 2016 Automotive Performance, Execution, and Layout (APEAL) study hasn't changed much this time around with Porsche coming in at No.1 for the 12th consecutive year, while BMW was close behind in second. Jaguar and Mercedes-Benz tied for third with Land Rover, Lexus, and Lincoln tied for No.5. The APEAL Study, according to JD Power, measures owners' level of excitement and emotional attachment across 77 parameters. Brands and cars are rated on a 1,000-point scale. The study found that new cars with modern safety features including low speed collision avoidance and blind spot monitoring have higher APEAL scores than vehicles without the features. The overall industry score increased from 798 to 801, which JD Power claims was helped by the launch of a variety of new vehicles. This year, 22 out of 30 new or redesigned cars received a higher score than the vehicle's respective segment average. Porsche is once again at the top of the list as the automaker's score increased by three points to 877. BMW outscored Jaguar to take second place with a score of 859, while the British automaker dropped three points from last year with 852 points. Volkswagen overtook Mini to become the top-ranked non-premium brand with 809 points, while the latter automaker trailed behind by one point. At the end of the scale, Smart came in at the very bottom for the second year in a row with a score of 745 points, which represents an increase of 62 points over last year. Fiat's score increased by six points to 755, but still confined the automaker to second-to-worst place for a consecutive year. Mitsubishi's score increased to 770, up from 755, to become the fourth-worst brand, while Jeep fell to third-worst with a decrease in seven points to 756. General Motors received six segment-level awards, followed by Hyundai with five, and BMW and VW earning four apiece. Surprise segment victories include the Chevrolet Camaro, which outscored the Dodge Challenger, and the Lexus RC which ranked above the BMW 4 and 3 Series. For more information on how the automakers ranked, check out the official release on the 2016 APEAL Study below or visit JD Power's website to analyze the graphs.

Jaguar trademarks EV-Type nameplate
Mon, 17 Nov 2014Green may have been a popular color choice for the classic Jaguar E-Type, but even in Lightweight form (pictured above), it was hardly what you'd call environmentally friendly. Not by today's standards, anyway, with six-, eight- and twelve-cylinder engines displacing between 3.8 and 5.3 liters. But Jaguar looks to be preparing to revive the nameplate - or at least one similar - with a new electric vehicle in the works.
According to the latest intel, Jaguar has applied both in the US and in Europe to trademark the name EV-Type. The implication that it's developing an electric vehicle is clear, as is the reference to its iconic sports car of yore. But more than that, we don't know. We could be looking at an electric version of the current F-Type, a project to convert original E-Types to electric power or a different model altogether.
It wouldn't be the first time, of course, that we'd see Jaguar toying with the idea of electric propulsion. A couple of years ago, the British automaker demonstrated a plug-in hybrid XJ_e prototype, and showcased both the C-X16 and C-X75 concepts with advanced hybrid powertrains. But it has yet to put any such system into production, relying instead on the small diesels it sells in Europe to keep its carbon footprint small.
