1966 JAGUAR E-TYPE XKE 4.2 LITER SERIES ONE ROADSTER. PRIMROSE YELLOW WITH BLACK TRIM AND SOFT TOP. 4-SPEED. CHROME WIRE WHEELS. BLACK FACTORY HARDTOP. 19,690 ORIGINAL MILES. TWO OWNERS.
KURT TANNER RESTORATIONS offers for sale, here on Ebay, a 1966 Jaguar E-type Roadster with a believed 19,690 original miles. This car is a stunning discovery just out of a 35-year hibernation. It was purchased last year from the second owner, who purchased the car in April of 1969. It appears to have been delivered new in Oregon. The second owner purchased it in California needing some front end/bonnet repair when it was only three years old. It was subsequently repaired with a new factory bonnet at that time and repainted once again in the original Primrose color. The carpets in the interior were replaced. Over the next several years, it was driven very little. Because of family commitments, it was put into permanent indoor storage in the late 1970's, then later moved to outdoor storage, and resided there until recently (the last photo shows it's discovered resting place). The last registration sticker on the California blue/yellow license plates is from 1979. A California car for just about all of it's life... This correct and full matching numbers car is a well-preserved and original example needing only light restoration. The body exhibits perfect panel fit and gapping all the way around. The body is extremely straight and all of the panels close well. All of the chromework is original and in very decent condition. The factory hardtop has been recently added and is partially restored with a newer headliner. The car still retains most of it's original interior trim and the original softtop. The engine turns, but no attempt has been made to start it. It has perfectly clean oil on the dipstick and full up to the mark. The car would need a recommissioning on it's fuel and braking systems to make it roadworthy. The radiator/cooling fans have been updated to 1968 specification. Overall, this car presents a unique opportunity to purchase a very low-mileage, highly desirable E-type 4.2 Liter Series One Roadster. The new buyer can decide on which route to take on it's restoration. This car could be a good candidate for a light cosmetic restoration, or a perfect donor car for a ground-up, nut-and-bolt, Concours rebuild. In either case, this car probably would not require much in the way of mechanical work. This car is sold with a clear and current California title and a small collection of associated receipts, old registrations, and other paperwork history. It is located in Southern California and can be viewed by appointment. $85,000. KURT TANNER RESTORATIONS. 909-920-9221, work. 909-241-1051, cell. |

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.
Jaguar Land Rover considering Mexican plant
Mon, Apr 27 2015Jaguar Land Rover has been expanding its production out of the UK and into overseas markets, and according to the latest word from Bloomberg, the British automaker is considering spending more than half a billion dollars to build a new assembly plant somewhere in Mexico. Since the Range Rover Sport and Evoque are two of the company's top sellers in the US, those would reportedly be the most likely to be manufactured at the Mexican plant, although Jaguars could follow as well. The automaker was previously said to be leaning towards a location in the Southern US, and while it could conceivably proceed with plans for both, it would be more likely to go with one or the other. State and local authorities below the Mason-Dixon line have been soliciting the business with various incentives, but lower labor costs South of the Border could prove more attractive to JLR and its parent company Tata. It wouldn't be the first, after all. Over the past month alone, General Motors committed to building the next Chevy Cruze in Mexico, Toyota did the same with the Corolla, Hyundai was reported to be considering a similar step, and Ford announced two new plants in the country amounting to a $2.5-billion investment. Luxury automakers like Audi, BMW and Mercedes have also been delving into Mexican production as well, blazing a path that JLR could potentially follow. The British automaker recently opened a plant in China and another in Brazil, while investing in additional facilities in the UK as well.
Jaguar recalling XK Convertible and XF 2.0T sedan for unrelated issues
Fri, 16 Aug 2013Jaguar has announced that it will be recalling 1,989 XK Convertibles produced between October 1, 2010 and August 1, 2013. Model years ranging from 2011 to 2014 are part of the recall.
The issue has to do with one of the switches the switch that controls the opening and closing of the convertible top. The switch also has to do with the operation of the power windows. According to the Feds, the switch doesn't move down to close the power windows, meaning that the window could accidentally close on the finger or arm of an inattentive person.
In related news, Jaguar is also recalling 940 2013 XF sedans powered by the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine for a hose that can detach underhood, which could cause the engine to stall or could leave the driver without power steering or brakes.
