2000 Jaguar Xk8 Base Coupe 2-door 4.0l on 2040-cars
Rockwall, Texas, United States
|
Named "ONE OF THE 10 MOST BEAUTIFUL VEHICLES EVER BUILT" by Motor Trend Magazine. This elegant coupe is one of only approximately 1800 to ever come to the States. It is easy to see that this beauty has been pampered from day 1. In addition, I had a well known Jaguar dealer fully service the car. Being a perfectionist, I then had an award winning shop set up the car for her next 100,000 miles. To sell a great car like this one, I think you should know the seller somewhat as well. I have had a great love for cars and trucks for over 60 years. Since 1982, I have built, customized, or restored 657 fine cars, trucks and SUV's. I have 6 cars in national museums. A Chevy SSR I built was named BEST IN THE WORLD by the General Motors team that actually designed the car for Chevrolet. I built a series of 25 commemorative vehicles as a tribute to my friend, automotive genius, Don Yenko. I am the only builder ever to have two cars featured in a single issue of Car Restomod Annual. In brief, I love cars and believe in striving for perfection. Please have a look at my website just to give you a better idea as to the car I offer now. yenko-wildfire.net This is a nice Jaguar!!! I wanted the car as close to new as possible. I had them perform all things preventative, including struts, shocks, knock sensors, wheel bearings, brakes, transmission, differential, and a thorough tuneup including plugs and wires. In short, I call it my 84 point inspection and correction of all things mechanical, electrical, functional and safety oriented. After all things were upgraded or completed, I am able to include a 36 month/unlimited mileage warranty through CARS. This Ultra-rare and pampered piece of rolling art has only 98,854 actual miles or less than 6800 miles per year! This car is the final descendant of the legendary E-Type and features Jaguars first use of an incomparable V8 engine with just under 300 HP. The power is there. The handling is exhilirating and in my latest 2400 mile "test drive", I got 24.9 mpg AND that's with my lead foot. The major negative for this vaunted speciman is that it may take up to 10 minutes to fill the gas tank........3 minutes to fill it and 7 minutes to field comments and questions from interested parties. A hoot to drive and ready for the road course or concourse. Lovely piece of road art that you won't pass on the highway like your Corvette, Mercedes or BMW. A very realistic reserve lets you own this wonderful car for well under its true value and its neo-classic increasing value. Glad to answer your inquiries at 814-229-3402 or billrea33@comcast.net The car resides most of the time near Dallas, Tx. Shipping is possible. I reserve the right to end the auction early, as I am advertising the car locally. The first person to see and drive her will definitely be the next owner. |

Road & Track names its 2013 Performance Car of the Year
Thu, 14 Nov 2013Road & Track recently staged its first annual Performance Car of the Year test, pitting 13 new and updated performance cars against each other on track, then graduating the top six to a road test before picking a winner. Additionally, the magazine staff picked the best automobiles of the year in eight categories.
But first, let's cover the PCotY segment. Here's the list of cars brought to the comparison test: Audi R8 V10 Plus; BMW 435i; BMW M6 Competition Package; Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z51; Ferrari F12 Berlinetta; Ford Fiesta ST; Jaguar F-Type V8 S; Jaguar XFR-S; Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S-Model Wagon; Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series; Mini John Cooper Works GP; Nissan GT-R Track Edition; and Porsche Cayman S.
To find out the results of the comparison, head over to Road & Track's website or check the press release below, where you'll also find the magazine's top-rated vehicles in eight categories. Want more? Head over to the 2013 PCotY hub. But before you do that, take a stab at guessing the winner of PCotY (we'll give you one hint: it isn't a Porsche).
Jaguar bringing all-wheel-drive F-Type to LA Auto Show [w/video]
Thu, 06 Nov 2014Jaguar's big splash at last year's Los Angeles Auto Show was showing off the slinky F-Type Coupe; perhaps one of the loveliest car shapes on the road today. This year the company won't have a show-stopping new design to offer, but the news that all-wheel drive is coming to the F-Type range is, nevertheless, pretty spectacular.
Mixed in with news about a technical partnership between Jaguar and the Bloodhound SSC World Land Speed Record program, the British brand announced this morning that it will show the first AWD F-Type Coupe at the 2014 LA show later this month.
Jaguar tells us that the sure-footed cat, in AWD F-Type R Coupe form, will run from 0-60 miles per hour in just 3.9 seconds, with a limited top speed of 186 mph.
2014 Jaguar XFR-S is the power and the fury
Thu, 29 Nov 2012If there's something wrong about a sedan with a 550-horsepower supercharged V8, we don't want to hear about it. Instead, we want to marvel at the car in person, which is fortuitous because Jaguar has officially unveiled the 2014 XFR-S at the 2012 LA Auto Show. That blown 5.0-liter V8 dishes up a full 502 pound-feet of torque, which is good enough to shuttle the four-door to 60 mph in a scant 4.4 seconds. And, thanks to a start stop system and a few other fuel-saving tricks, the 2014 XFR-S gets away without being hit by the gas guzzler tax.
That's all good news, but we're just as excited about the fact that engineers managed to crank up the vehicle's chassis stiffness by a ludicrous 30 percent. Stiffer dampers and springs also give the car a little more poise, and a wide-open exhaust lets the whole world know you're kicking down their door. You know, in case the electric blue paint and wild body work didn't tip your hand. Check out the full gallery above for a closer look.
