1974 Jaguar E-type E-type on 2040-cars
Brush Creek, Tennessee, United States
Available here is a 1974 Jaguar XKE V-12 roadster. It is an excellent vehicle that drives out as well as it shows.
A very flashy color combination, along with the smooth power of the V-12 and 4-speed transmission, makes this
Jaguar a pleasure to drive. BODY: Bright red exterior paint that is in wonderful condition. The car was purchased
out of the southern California area where I believe the car was painted. Estimated that the car was painted about
15 years ago but that is unknown. The chrome and trim is in excellent condition and shows well. Lights, glass, and
rear window are all in very nice shape. The body is very solid, there is no rust that I am aware of on the car.
Also, no known accidents. With all this being said, this is NOT a 100 point car. The restoration was believed to be
15-20 years ago but is undocumented, therefore I do not know the age of all areas of the car. There is some wear on
the car in certain areas. I've tried to show all those areas in the pictures I have. Several additional pictures
that I can send to you. INTERIOR: Beautiful tan interior in the car. Seats are very nice and do not sag. Carpets
are in good shape and fit well. Gauges all work and the dash is in excellent condition. Very nice convertible top
on the car with a solid and clear plastic window. Car has spare tire, tools, jack,hammer for knock offs. Once again I have several detailed pictures I can send you. This is a very nice driving car with the desirable 4-speed. Engine pulls strong and runs out well. The clutch feels great and
transmission shifts up and down with ease as it should. There is an updated ignition box that was installed by
previous owner. Makes the car very reliable. Headers through the exhaust is solid and sounds wonderful. I have never had any overheating issues with the car.
Overall, it performs very well and is a blast to drive. SUSPENSION/BRAKES: Car handles as it should and brakes work
great. Power steering works and the car drives straight down the road. There is some mild squeaking in the brakes
that happens occasionally. Overall this is a great car and excellent to drive to shows or just around town. There
are about $20k in receipts that come with the car from miscellaneous maintenance and restoration work completed by
previous owner

David Brown Speedback GT marks US debut at The Quail
Sun, Aug 16 2015The British invasion has officially deployed another expeditionary force to these American shores with the arrival of the David Brown Speedback GT. The classically styled English grand tourer debuted nearly a year and a half ago, and has been racking up orders from discerning customers in the UK and across continental Europe. As promised, it has now made its American debut at the swanky Monterey event known as The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering. The Speedback GT is a coachbuilt grand touring coupe made by British startup David Brown Automotive. It's based on a Jaguar XKR, but reskinned inside and out to give it the look and feel of a classic Aston Martin – little wonder given the name it shares with the former Aston chief whose initials still adorn the DB model line. Underneath the retro bodywork lies Jaguar's celebrated 5.0-titer supercharged V8, giving the Speedback thoroughly modern levels of muscle with 510 horsepower and 461 pound-feet of torque. The resulting 0-60 time of 4.6 seconds and top speed of 155 miles per hour are suitably quick – not quite time-warping, but the performance is certainly nowhere near as old-school as the design would lead you to believe. Call it the best of both worlds, then, if you dig the styling. But don't expect everyone to be jumping on this particular gentlemanly bandwagon. At nearly half a million pounds sterling – over $750k at current exchange rates – it's sure to keep out the riffraff of which "the rest of us" are most certainly part.

Is Jaguar's 3 Series-fighter the brand's last chance?
Wed, 16 Oct 2013The upcoming line of compact 3 Series-fighters from Jaguar, often referred to as the Jaguar XS, could consist of a sedan, wagon and possibly a coupe and GT model (think BMW 5 Series GT). The car's all-aluminum architecture also will provide the basis for two new sports utility vehicles. Just how important is the much-touted "baby Jag" project to parent company Jaguar Land Rover? A JLR executive reportedly says the brand's survival is directly linked to the success of the XS, codenamed X760, Autocar reports.
The brand's survival is directly linked to the success of the XS.
"If the X760 fails, it will probably be the end for the [Jaguar] brand," the executive says. But Adrian Hallmark, Jaguar's global brand director, claims Jaguar will "build the most advanced, most efficient, most refined car in that [compact luxury sedan] segment. Not almost as good as, but better than the best in the world."
Jaguar Land Rover's InMotion takes a stab at carsharing
Wed, Apr 13 2016Jaguar Land Rover's new InMotion mobility business aims to capitalize on the growing carsharing boom and develop other forms of alternative transportation. The first pilot programs kick off in the coming months in North America, Europe, and Asia. JLR owns InMotion, but the company acts independently from the automaker. "As a start-up business, InMotion combines the flexibility and pace needed to compete in the ever-changing mobility sector. It allows us to react quickly to new tech and ever-changing customer demands," Adrian Hallmark, JLR's Group Strategy Director, said in a statement. The 30-person firm intends to develop its own answers to upcoming transport problems and also invest in entrepreneurs to develop those solutions. InMotion isn't yet providing many details about what projects the firm expects to tackle, but the Website mentions carsharing and on-demand delivery services. Establishing InMotion shows that JLR doesn't want to fall behind the current trends in the auto industry. Practically every major automaker is currently pursuing future transportation ideas. For example, Ford recently took a very similar approach when it spun off Smart Mobility into a separate startup. BMW also rebranded its DriveNow carsharing service into ReachNow to also add a future ridesharing service.
