2007 Jaguar Xk Base Convertible 2-door 4.2l on 2040-cars

Year:2007 Mileage:52857 Color: no noticeable dents
Location:

Brunswick, Georgia, United States

Brunswick, Georgia, United States

Nothing is perfect, but this car is about as close as you could expect for a used.  It looks practically perfect, it drives practically perfectly, and everything works.  The factory chrome wheels had some rust spots, so I just installed $5,000 worth of brand new chrome wheels and Dunlop SP Sport MAXX TT tires - they have less than 1,000 miles on them.  I drive the car to work daily, so the mileage will change from the listing accordingly, but the round trip is only 16 miles, so it's not mounting up quickly.  The car is located in Brunswick Georgia, and can be seen and driven at just about any time.

This car is equipped with the Luxury package, which includes a full leather-covered dash (which you'll see in the photos I've protected with a dash mat), and 16-way adjustable seats on both the driver and passenger sides, as well as the upgraded "surround sound" stereo system.  You can't find a more comfortable, custom-fitting seat in an automobile at any price.

It's difficult to appreciate from the photos, but this car has a metal flake paint that makes the dark blue come alive like deep water, and the finish is outstanding.

I am the second owner, and have had the car 18 months.  I'm only selling because I'm retiring within 2-3 years, and while I thought this would be a fun retirement toy, I now am too afraid of the economy to keep such an expensive toy - got to downgrade to something cheap and practical.  The first owner was a lady who receives a new car from her grandfather's trust every 5 years.  She put 42,000 miles on it in 5 years, and it was pampered by the dealer.  I have had to do nothing to the car but replace the front brakes, and I do keep it garaged and serviced.

Disclosure:  several months ago, a fellow backed into me.  There was very light damage to the fender and door.  There was no body putty/panel repair work done.  The fender, vent opening, side light, and door shell were purchased new from Jaguar and replaced.  The body shop did an excellent job:  they blended in the bumper, hood and rear quarter panel, and pulled off both front and rear bumpers so the new paint would go completely around front and rear edges of the parts being painted, leaving no masking lines or weak points for fading or peeling to start.  If you come see the car, I'll challenge you to find any indication that will reveal to you which side was damaged.

There is a loan on the car, so you or your lender will need to work out the details of money/title exchange with my credit union.


NOTE:  Please don't be put off by negative feedback on another car I sold on ebay a few months ago.  That was a car that had been wrecked and rebuilt, sold with a "rebuilt" title, clearly disclosed as such, with everything described that I knew about the car's damage and restoration, and the caveat:  this car is being sold as-is, where-is, so please come and inspect it before bidding.  The fellow who eventually bought it bid without inspecting the car.  I sent him an email and said that I would prefer he come inspect it, because I didn't want any misunderstandings.  He said at the price offered, with the photos included, and my description, he was satisfied to buy without inspection.  So of course, after he bought the car and had it shipped to him, he began to nag me about "things wrong with the car that you didn't disclose."  I knew this was bogus, because he claimed several things such as, the car not only needed a front-end alignment, but the shop where he took it told him that "it couldn't be aligned."  I sent him a copy of the receipt where the car had been aligned at a local new car dealership only two weeks prior to the sale, including the sheet showing the in-spec results of the alignment.  He claimed the convertible top wouldn't work, so I sent him a copy of the receipt where I had taken the car to the Lexus dealer in Jacksonville only 3 weeks prior to the sale, where (all clearly shown on the invoice), I asked for a diagnosis, for "convertible top operates by does not always close and latch securely," and the report was, "right rear top position switch adjusted, top now operates properly."  I could go on.  While this is a much different automobile that has never been damaged (other than the minor dent I described above), and it has a clear title - STILL - TO PROTECT BOTH YOURSELF AND ME - please come inspect and drive the car.  I will be perfectly happy to go with you to take the car to any shop or dealer you want to perform a complete inspection.

Jaguar XE bares its claws in 74 images [w/video]

Wed, 01 Oct 2014

The XE may prove to be the most vital new model to Jaguar's expansion. But to date we've only really seen it in top-spec, supercharged XE S form. That ends right here and now, however, as Jaguar releases details, photos and even a brief video clip showing the entire range - including those most customers are bound to buy.
Globally speaking - or at least in its home market - Jaguar will offer the XE with five different engines and in four different trim levels. The new Ingenium engine family includes two diesels and two turbocharged gasoline options along with the top-of-the-line supercharged V6 that will serve as the XE's performance flagship model, at least until a new SVR version comes along. Both six-speed manual and eight-speed automatic transmissions are on offer, and overseas buyers will also be able to choose between base SE, mid-range Prestige, opulent Portfolio, dynamic R-Sport and range-topping S trim levels.
Of course not every engine is available in each trim level and with either transmission, so instead of 40 combinations we're looking at 22. Once the XE reaches American showrooms, we'll likely be looking at even fewer, as we're not expecting the manual and diesel versions to be offered Stateside. Stay tuned as well for our live impressions from the floor of the Paris Motor Show. But in the meantime you can scope out all the details and UK specifications in the press release below, along with the short video and the gallery of 74 high-resolution images above.

Jaguar Land Rover opens winter testing facility in Minnesota

Wed, 12 Dec 2012

As it begins the rollout of the all-wheel-drive Jaguar XJ and XF models, Jaguar Land Rover has just announced that it has opened a new facility in northern Minnesota for winter testing. Located in International Falls, MN (on the US and Canadian border), the British automaker says it is one of the coldest locations in the Continental US. Jaguar's new Instinctive All Wheel Drive system was developed primarily to help sell more cars in the northern US, so it only makes sense to open a testing area in the US as well.
With temperatures that can drop to minus 55 degrees Fahrenheit, International Falls was chosen to mimic some of the worst weather a Jaguar or Land Rover will ever see. The grounds house testing chambers, various road surfaces and even a frozen lake. This new facility complements the hot-weather testing grounds in Phoenix, AZ.
The official press release is posted below.

Jaguar F-Type Coupe unveiled with range-topping R model

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

This is the Jaguar F-Type Coupe, the long-awaited hardtop counterpart to the F-Type roadster we tested earlier this year. Besides adding a roof, it shuffles up the engine range that we saw on the Convertible model, and in two of three cases, it cuts the cost of entry rather quite nicely (a happy contradiction to earlier reports).
The big change is that the F-Type Coupe does away with the Convertible's V8S trim (although the 495-horsepower variant will still be available in the droptop), and adds an even more potent letter to the top of the range. The $99,000 F-Type R Coupe is the latest member of Jaguar's R Performance line, and despite being down a letter on the XFR-S and XKR-S, it features the same 5.0-liter, 550-hp supercharged V8. With all that power on tap, the F-Type R will sprint to 60 mph in just 4.0 seconds (if it doesn't break into the 3s in independent testing, we'll be shocked) and on to a top speed of 186 miles per hour. If you need to get to freeway speeds quickly, the F-Type R will also go from 50 to 75 mph in just 2.4 seconds.
As the top tier model, the F-Type R is loaded down with performance-oriented tech. The suspension features adaptive dynamics that manage the car's body movements and adjust accordingly, while the suspension itself is 4.3-percent stiffer in front and 3.7-percent tighter in the back than the F-Type V8S Convertible. Drivers can dial up an even stiffer suspension setting in Dynamic Mode, which will also tweak the steering, the shift schedule of the eight-speed SportShift automatic and the throttle response of that brawny engine.
