I purchased this cars years ago from my brother. He in turn had purchased it from an elderly man that had kept the
car garaged in San Diego. There is no significant rust on the car. The paint was stripped early in the life of the
car. The body was lead filled and repainted the original factory color. There is one small thumb side indention in
the side of the right front fender. You cannot pick it up in the pictures. The original engine was rebuilt about 8
years ago by Walt's Jaguars in Idaho. It was built back to stock specs with the addition of some nice Iskaderian
cams. The car idles nicely and you do notice the cams in the higher rpm ranges. A standard upgrade to the car is
the addition of the T5 5 speed manual transmission. You run about 2700 rpm at 70 to 75 mph in fifth gear. Very
relaxed. There is about 3500 miles on this set up. I upgraded the clutch to a center force unit and it has a good
feel. I have a stack of receipts that go with the car. Maintenance has been kept up on the car. The work has ben
professionally done by Auto House of Clovis. They maintain my other British Cars and they do quality work. The
pictures should speak for them selves. There are small items to attend to as is there is with any older British
car. The choke knob needs to be reattached and the oil pressure gauges needs to be upgraded to a mechanical unit. I
have had mechanical oil pressure gauges fitted and the pressure is good. I drive the car once a month on a 150 mile
round trip to visit my mother in Merced, Ca. The pictures were taken after my return last Sunday.Car runs great and
has never overheated on me. The aluminum radiator was fitted when the engine was rebuilt. The fans were rebuilt at
the same time. The interior is original and is worn in spots. There are no rips or tears. It is just a well
maintained old car. I hate to see it sit. Somebody else should be enjoying it. I have too many other cars and I
just do not drive this one enough.

Jaguar and Land Rover to consolidate dealerships
Thu, 29 Nov 2012Jaguar and Land Rover are set to merge their sales facilities, according to Inside Line. Jaguar Land Rover North America President Andy Gross says 45 percent of Jaguar owners also have an SUV in their stable, so it makes sense to give customers as much exposure to the cat's high-riding cousins and possible. The number of overall outlets will remain the same, and the brands will reportedly remain separate on the showroom floor, however.
So far, just one dealer has made the move to combine under the roof of one 68,000 square-foot facility in Paramus, New Jersey (above), though a further 20 are ready to make the shift and become Jaguar Land Rover outlets. Gross believes the shift is necessary so that his company's dealer network will accurately reflect the company's products. We'll see how cozy the brands are when Jaguar starts rolling out its own SUVs in a few years.
Jaguar Land Rover creates new Special Operations division for halo vehicles, bespoke commissions
Fri, 13 Jun 2014Jaguar Land Rover has announced that a new division of the British manufacturer will be dedicated to "bespoke commissions," as well as heritage products and apparel. Oh, and the new Special Operations division will also be behind JLR's halo cars from now on.
It's that last one that is the most tantalizing, as the last real halo product to see production from Jaguar was the XJ220. The Range Rover, meanwhile, has always had its own kind of halo reputation, although the Land Rover brand itself has never really gotten into the game with a dedicated model.
According to JLR, the new halo models will focus on ultra-high performance and luxury with a limited run of vehicles. The bespoke models, meanwhile, will give the wealthiest customers full sway over how vehicles are outfitted, with unique paints, trims and other accessories. The new SpecOps division will be run by John Edwards.
Jaguar Land Rover opens winter testing facility in Minnesota
Wed, 12 Dec 2012As 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.
