Jaguar 1951 Xk120 Open Two Seater on 2040-cars
Hanover, Massachusetts, United States
|
This is a true upper state New York fully matching number XK120 barn find. It was sitting in a barn on jack stands for 35 years. It is a two owner vehicle, the most recent owner passed away and the family sold the car. The engine turns freely and you can see in the photos it is an early edition car with the smooth cam covers, the chrome side lights on the top of the fenders and there are quite a few more small details indicating the early edition features. The body on the car is in excellent shape, the frame is super dry. When we received the car in the body was stripped of all paint, so a brown primer is on the car to protect the open metal. This XK120 originally was Sherwood Green, with a green interior. There are very few parts missing. What we can see missing is the rear skirts, the cigarette lighter, the jack, the tools, the spare wheel, the emblem that sits on the dash in front of the passenger seat and the side curtains. If you don't see something in the photos it is missing. In the photos you will notice two boxes of miscellaneous pieces that come with the car. Two of the tires are the original Dunlops. This could be an original 10,000 mile car as indicated on the odometer. The buyer of this car will be very impressed with everything on this XK120. Obviously the car will need to be restored. It rolls, steers and goes into gear so it can be transported easily. We ship worldwide. Transport to the port in New Jersey is $400.00. We can assist a buyer with locating a shipper. Additional photos available. If you have any questions please email or call Ray at 001-617-838-3728 or Dan at 001-781-630-0185.

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
Here's what a front-row seat looked like in 2014 Mille Miglia
Tue, 26 Aug 2014From 1927 to 1957, the Mille Miglia was one of the great, romantic European road races of the golden era of motorsports. The cars were fast, beautiful and loud but also extremely dangerous and regularly claimed drivers' lives. After two fatal accidents in '57, the event finally had to reform and came back in 1977 as a historic rally held over the course of several days. That didn't make things boring, though, and Xcar found that out firsthand with a front-row seat to this year's race in a 2015 Jaguar F-Type R Coupe.
Xcar was actually following the Jaguar team this year that included Ian Callum and Jay Leno in an XK120, which we previously got a glimpse of when it was covered on Jay Leno's Garage. Where Leno focuses on a more personal story of competing, this one takes a more macro view. You really get an idea of how crazy the Mille Miglia still is, and while the F-Type is way too new to actually compete in the rally, it can still wear an event sticker and drive with the vintage racers.
One amazing fact about today's Mille Miglia is that if you're competing in the event, there are basically no rules. The roads are technically still open to traffic, but the police shut down intersections and provide a rolling roadblock. Xcar's F-Type alternated between following on the course with the classics and snipping off chunks of the route to watch the participants arrive at each stop. Check out the video to experience fantastic historic rally.
2013 Jaguar XF 2.0T
Fri, 10 May 2013Jaguar is moving to modernize its XF engine lineup - once the exclusive territory of V8 mills - with a range including a turbo four, a supercharged six and supercharged V8s of various potencies. Personally, I'll miss the combination of this smooth looking and driving XF sedan, and the lazy power of the naturally aspirated 5.0-liter engine, even if the super six has earned some praise in other applications.
The truth is that the four, six, eight lineup for the XF makes a lot of sense, and this 2.0T version of the sedan is far better than I expected it to be. In fact, there's a legitimate argument to be made for it as the XF that works the best for the largest group of customers. Here's why:
