Check out the cheapest 4.2L XKR Convertible on the internet period! I am helping my friend sell his car as he is moving back to New York and will have no need for a vehicle especially a convertible with winter coming! I have had a chance to have the car in my possession for a couple of weeks now and have gone through it and this is a VERY solid car.
My friend Bought the car in March of this year from the original owner in Alpharetta Georgia. The car was purchased with 146,000 miles on it and was serviced for its ENTIRE life at Nalley Automotive - Jaguar. I have over $13,000 worth of receipts dating back from when the car had 29k miles on it till when the car was purchased in march where it had another $700 dollar service done before it was sold. The previous owner used the car almost exclusively for highway driving as he commuted a long distance to and from work every day. Do not let the miles scare you the maintenance records alone show the care and money put into the long term maintenance of this car.
Body
The body is almost flawless which completely amazed me. I could not find a single ding on the entire car and the back bumper (thanks parking sensors!) looks brand new!
The front bumper because of the highway driving does have rock chips on it as well as one small crack that looks to be easily repaired from behind. If someone painted the current bumper or put a new front bumper on it the exterior of the car would really be almost perfect!
Interior
The interior is black leather with wood gran trim surrounding the dash. It has the Alpine sound system with CD changer in the trunk. From what I can tell everything works on the inside including the power retractable top. It has the black leather Recaro seats in it. They have no tears or rips in them and besides being a big dry are in good shape. The back seats are in excellent condition. It does have the factory navigation. When it is turned on it says something a bout the navigation CD. I did not try and look into this but my friend said that when he did use the factory navigation it worked fine.
Drive train
After driving it the transmission seems perfect. No slipping or issues that I am aware of. I have not driven an XKR before this so I am not sure how they are supposed to feel but the transmission seems to shift fine.
I made sure to NOT clean the engine bay for the new owner. This is exactly how the motor was given to me and I feel this is important to show how it is rather then trying to dress it up. All fluids look clean and filled. I recently checked all intake plumbing and vacuum hoses for leaks and besides tightening a few clamps found no issues as well. I also hooked up my OBD 2 scanner to the car to check for engine codes (engine light was off) and there were no stored codes either.
Brakes and tires
The tires are the original equipment Pirelli PZERO tires. Two of them were replaced in March and the other two were in excellent condition. these are very expensive tires and they look to be almost new!
The brakes come with the large red calipers and slotted rotors. I know the owner let me know the brake rotors need to be cleaned often to make sure they stopped properly. The pads and fluid looks good but the brakes seem to not stop as fast as I thought they might. This could be perfectly normal as I am not used to driving a very fast heavy touring car. There is no noise from the brakes and seem to be in good condition.
Only known Issues I have found
The Airbag light is on on the vehicle. It blinks two times when the car is turned on and after some research it seems this is an indication of a one of the airbag sensors either on the back of the seat or the bottom of it. The HAL sensor is known to go bad and this seems to be the issue. I had the capacity to reset the code but I decided against this so the new owner knows of this small issue. Because of the mechanic checking this out the back of the leather seats were un clipped to have access to this. New clips are needed to put the small trim sides back on but since these will probably be taken off again to fix the issue I decided to leave it as is. Besides this issue There are NO other lights on the dash, warning lights or any other issues that I can find. This well maintained car looks to be in very solid condition and you can get a 90k dollar super car for a fraction of the cost!
Terms and Shipping.
I have no problem shipping the car anywhere in the continental USA for the new owner. The new owner will pay for all shipping cost but I am familiar with doing this and will assist where I can. A $500.00 deposit is due within 48 hours of the close of auction. The remaining payment will need to be sent to me either through bank transfer or overnight cashier check. The title will then be mailed with a copy of the owners front an back of his driver license. I have 100% Ebay feedback and will make sure this transaction is VERY easy and quick to ensure everyone is happy! If you are local and want to check the car out please message me to set up an appointment I have no problem showing the vehicle!

Jaguar shows off production XE body in camo
Sun, 18 May 2014Jaguar turned to Twitter and Facebook to reveal the production form of its coming XE sedan that we'll see for real at the Paris Motor Show. This is the first of a series of show-offs, Jaguar planning to wrap the bodywork in see-through camo that shows off the aluminum monocoque and other internals the company will use to promote the XE over its German rivals. That aluminum structure, which Jaguar calls iQ[Al], will also be used for other Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles.
Underneath that long bonnet and ahead of that terribly short trunk will come a series of Ingenium engines, the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engines in diesel and petrol forms that will come in a variety of power options, and the 3.0-liter supercharged V6 that can also be found in the F-Type. Before the XE goes on sale early next year, you can click the image above to get a slightly larger view of what the The Leaping Cat's near future looks like.
Watch this bad parker get what's coming to him
Fri, 02 Aug 2013If you're lucky enough to have a nice vehicle, do your fellow gearheads a favor and don't park like a clown. Seriously. Not only will you anger everyone who is trying to find a place to park, but your nice car is a billboard reinforcing the stereotype that car people are self-important and inconsiderate.
Take this gentleman for example. He has a Jaguar XK, and understandably wants to take care of it. Rather than parking it far, far away from any other cars and getting a bit of exercise by walking to his building, he takes up two spots (albeit barely) close to the structure. From the cameraman's narration, we can tell his coworkers are less than thrilled about his inability to stay between the lines.
Naturally, they wanted to teach him a lesson, so they parked a bigger vehicle as close to his driver's door as possible. Mr. XK's attempts to enter his vehicle are rather amusing, culminating in his climbing through the passenger side and scooching over to the driver's seat. While we can debate this sort of treatment all day long, it was effective. The video includes a follow up at the end showing where the XK driver parked the next day, and as you might guess, it wasn't in the same spot.
Jaguar F-Type meets America in first TV spots
Wed, 15 May 2013With its new "Your Turn" global ad campaign, Jaguar has introduced its 2014 F-Type to the world of broadcast media. The effort takes aim at the monied 25-54 demographic, which makes sense of Jaguar recently shacking up with the 2013 Playboy Playmate of the Year Raquel Pomplun and San Francisco NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick. You'll also be seeing the new roadster on ESPN's SportsCenter, late night ABC talk show Jimmy Kimmel Live, the USA Network show Covert Affairs, the Sundance Channel and theaters, magazines and everywhere digital. On top of all that, a social media campaign includes a contest called #MyTurnToJag that will reward four winners with a custom drive in the new convertible.
You'll find the first two spots below, along with a press release on the roaring red marketing onslaught headed your way.
