Selling a very nice 1989 Jaguar Vanden Plas. The car is generally in good condition- has 127K miles. The jag has been parked for the past year - it should have a thorough inspection, fluids flushed, etc. and I'm confident it will come back to life nicely.

The body is very straight, accident free, with no rust. Power windows and door locks work fine. The original black paint is in good condition - before photos show condition when pulled our of garage.  After photos show condition after wash and light buff.  Windshield is in great shape.

Mechanically the car is also sound. Despite not being driven for the past year, it still starts right up and drives very well. I just put a new battery in as the old one had lost its charge. The in line 6 engine appears strong and runs smooth when warm or at running rpm.  Car surges and stumbles a bit at idle.  I suspect a function of bad gas + sitting. We have seen some coolant leakage after driving and heating up the car to operating temp. I suspect a cracked radiator hose  - does not appear to overheat (have not driven long durations/ distances over 15 miles), only leaks occasionally under pressure when system is full.  Dash computer/indicator shows "coolant low" indicator as well as "open circuit". Radio, HVAC, and sunroof have recently stopped working.  Everything was working when I replaced the sunroof switch- then the sunroof, A/C, and radio stopped functioning, although the radio still shows the time.  I don't have time to sort it right now- just looking to let it go.

This will be a nice car for someone who puts a little time and elbow grease into it.  I believe it is priced to sell - very low reserve set.

Clean Colorado title in hand.  Will assist with any shipping service but that is buyers responsibility.  Sold as-is.

Jaguar's XF diesel isn't just fuel efficient, it's the cheapest XF available

Tue, Sep 6 2016

Jaguar announced the 2017 Jaguar XF will now offer the 2.0-liter turbocharged diesel the company introduced on the XE. In addition to returning an impressive 42 miles per gallon on the highway and 31 in the city, the diesel is the cheapest XF available at $48,445. This means that picking the oil-burner will save you $3,040 over the cheapest gas V6 version, which only manages 29 mpg on the highway and 20 in the city. With 180 horsepower, the diesel is significantly down on power compared with the base V6 model. As a result, the diesel moves slower. Jaguar estimates the base V6 is good for a 5.2-second 0-60 time and the diesel should be able to do the same in 8 seconds. However, that's the only real downside. Even with the slower acceleration times, the diesel still has a very usable 317 lb-ft of torque available from 1,750-2,500 rpm. Based on our test drive of a diesel-equipped XE, the engine also breaks the old diesel stereotypes. It's both quite smooth and responsive. Unless you seriously need that straight-line performance, the Jaguar XF diesel arguably makes the most sense. It provides significant price savings and better fuel economy. The diesel XF also joins the XE and F-Pace diesels, leaving just the XJ and F-Type as the only Jaguars without compression-ignition engines. The British automaker is planning to remedy that, as a Jaguar Land Rover executive said the company plans to also add a diesel XJ variant in the US, even in the wake of the VW diesel scandal.

Jaguar Land Rover opens new $1.6 billion factory in Slovakia

Thu, Oct 25 2018

BRATISLAVA, Slovakia — Jaguar Land Rover is opening a new, $1.6 billion plant in Slovakia, the luxury car maker's first in continental Europe. The U.K.-based company, owned by India's Tata Motors, built the plant near Nitra, about 65 miles east of Bratislava, to initially produce 150,000 cars a year. The Slovak government is giving the carmaker investment subsidies of up to 130 million euros ($148 million). Slovakia is a regional car-making powerhouse. Germany's Volkswagen AG, France's PSA Peugeot Citroen and South Korea's Kia Motors all have a major plant in this Central European country of 5.4 million people. The company said it will shift all production of its Discovery model from Birmingham, England, to Slovakia amid falling diesel sales, vehicle taxes and uncertainty about Britain's Brexit departure from the European Union.Related Video:

Jaguar F-Type Project 7 takes the D-Type to the 21st Century

Sat, 16 Aug 2014

One of the many big name debuts during the 2014 Monterey car week is this, the Jaguar F-Type Project 7, a stunning roadster inspired by Jaguar's legendary, finned D-Type sports car.
The Project 7 expands on the already appealing F-Type Convertible formula, further boosting the Jaguar Land Rover 5.0-liter, supercharged V8 to its most potent form yet - 575 horsepower - making this the most powerful production Jag in history. So equipped, the Project 7 is more cheetah than jaguar, roaring to 60 miles per hour in a rapid 3.8 seconds before reaching its electronically limited peak speed of 186 miles per hour.
Prices for the F-Type Project 7 start at $165,000, with customer deliveries slated begin in spring of 2015.
