 Jaguar XJ12s of which there are very few (less than 60 made for the US) pop up on eBay once every 6 months or so.

This XJ12 will be for sale once and it is the best of all of them.

Last year of Jaguars infamous V12. Incredibly rare, you will never see another on the road.

This car has ABSOLUTELY NO - leaks, overheating, noises, rattles, tears, stains, wear. Period.

This is a show car, owned and operated by me for the last few years. I collect cars as a hobby and repair cars as a business owner. In fact this car is even on the sign for my auto repair facility, euautoworksmn

Every inch of this car has been inspected, thousands (9-10K to be fairly accurate) in receipts for parts (not counting labour) are pictured in the glove box. Everything and anything that may have been needed was done. This was my personal car and cost was no object as with any of my cars. I built this car to last forever and be endlessly reliable, thus nothing needs to be done.

The only modification I made is the addition of the Lattice wheels at a cost of $2300 or so, and a set of Pirelli P600s at 1K a set. The original 16" Vanden Plas wheels are on a pile with nearly new Michelins on them and are included if desired. Aside from the wheels this car needs no modification. Of all the cars I have owned this car is the closest any manufacturer has come to the perfect sport luxury sedan. Low, Lean, Long, Fast, and on a level all its own for looks.

I added on a set of ultra plush LLoyd floor mats $249 and had a professional tint the windows to 30% like all of my other cars.

The state you see the car in is the state in which I keep it every day, no quick detail and buff right before the pictures. If you look closely the whole car is covered in dust as I haven't driven it in a few weeks. And that is the problem, I don't drive enough to keep this car. They need to be used and I have to many cars to use them all... So all in all this car needs an owner that can enjoy it.

On a final note, this car impresses and honestly looks alot better in person than in pictures. The camera for some reason doesn't convey the low long stance as it looks in person. An absolutely stunning car from any angle or perspective.

Good luck bidding and please relay any questions to me before auction end


You have right to inspect the vehicle or have an inspection carried out at your expense before auction end, not after. If you have questions feel free to ask. If you cannot afford this car or for any other reason cannot smoothly perform this transaction please refrain from bidding. Once the auction is won you have entered a contract to purchase the car. Those are the eBay rules in a nutshell.

The story behind Bridgestone's new tires for the rare and beautiful Jaguar XJ220

Wed, Jun 7 2017

The Jaguar XJ220 is a beautiful, fast, and arguably under appreciated supercar from the early 1990s. While contemporaries like the Ferrari F40 and Porsche 959 garner more than $1 million at auctions, the XJ220 might pull in half that. Maintaining an older car requires work, a task made more difficult when parts aren't available. Last year, Bridgestone announced it was producing new tires specifically for XJ220s. The Japanese tire supplier has released a 42-minute video documenting the process. There were only 275 XJ220s ever built, fewer than both the F40 and 959. Until recently, no supplier made four same-spec tires that would fit the XJ220. Early Dodge Viper owners suffer from the same problem. Thanks to both Bridgestone and Pirelli, owners now have two options to choose from. Bridgestone worked with Don Law Racing, the go-to shop for all things XJ220, when developing the right tire for the car. It isn't simply a reproduction of an older-spec tire. Bridgestone tested a number of new compounds. With so few cars available, from the beginning this was going to be a money-losing prospect for the tire maker. Enthusiasts within the organization fought hard to get everything approved. Watch the full video to hear how much time and effort went into the project.

James Bond Spectre villain to drive never-was Jaguar C-X75 supercar

Tue, Dec 16 2014

James Bond is used to being outgunned. Often working alone, 007 has developed a knack for taking out major criminal syndicates and terrorists despite this routine disadvantage. But in his latest film, Spectre, we suspect Mr. Bond will have met his match in at least one regard – the car being driven by his nemesis, Franz Oberhauser, played by Christoph Waltz. For the 24th Bond flick, Spectre, the chief baddie will reportedly be driving the oft-fancied Jaguar C-X75 Concept car, which will star opposite of the hero's new Aston Martin DB10. As you'll recall, Jaguar flirted with actually producing the C-X75 before calling it off just over two years ago. According to Autocar, which spoke to people involved in the film's production, Herr Oberhauser's C-X75 will be powered by Jaguar Land Rover's popular 5.0-liter, supercharged V8, rather than its original complex hybrid powertrain (which relied on four electric motors recharged by a pair of diesel-fueled micro gas turbines). Jaguar would not confirm its role in the upcoming film, although Autocar has pieced together a few powerful signs that the company will be donating the services of its concept to the new flick. First, supplying the villain's car for the latest Bond film fits in nicely with the company's "Good to be Bad" campaign, despite the fact that the villain, in this instance, is Austrian, rather than British. Moreover, Autocar points to Aston's use of the tagline "It's good to be Bond" since the reveal of the new DB10, as an indication that the Jag will be opposing its former corporate cousin in Spectre.

Jaguar I-Pace EV has a new pedestrian warning sound: Listen to it here

Thu, Oct 11 2018

Jaguar's production of its first electric car means it also has to deal with a problem everybody else has been trying to solve: noise, or rather, the lack thereof. People can hear an engine at low speeds when they're walking along a sidewalk. The same can't be said for silent-operating electric cars. We wrote about Chevrolet's latest solution to the noise problem a few weeks back, and now Jaguar is sharing what it came up with for the I-Pace. The noise it didn't use is almost more interesting than the one it did, though. Jag says its first iteration was meant to be spacecraft/UFO inspired, but apparently it was so convincing that people tended to look up at the sky instead of at the road. Engineers switched it to what seems like a pretty general hum sound for production. Take a listen yourself in the video above — you'll hear the noise at the 40-second mark, and a few other spots after that. The sound is emitted from a speaker behind the grille at speeds up to about 12 mph. It'll change in pitch and volume to correspond to the increasing or decreasing speed of the vehicle — it even changes tone when you shift into reverse to signal a change in direction. Jaguar says the noise is no longer needed at speeds above 12 mph because tire and wind noise become sufficient enough at that speed. Chevy turns the noise off on the Volt at about 20 mph, however, showing that manufacturers haven't really come to a consensus on what should be happening. A U.S. law that hasn't gone into effect yet will ask manufacturers to keep the noise at up to 18.6 mph, though. We happen to be partial to the jaguar growl heard right at the end of the video as a warning sound. That's how you make an entrance with a Jaguar. These kinds of systems are necessary to warn those who might be blind or visually impaired, but distracted walkers are a huge demographic of people needing a warning too. Everybody walks around with their head buried in a phone nowadays, making silent vehicles a hazard of our own habits. Jaguar says it specifically engineered the noise so that it doesn't intrude upon the cabin, so only pedestrians are bothered by the hum when slowly plodding through cities.
