1989 Jaguar Xjs Cabriolet, V12, All Orginal. 41k Miles! Immaculate Condition. on 2040-cars
Mattituck, New York, United States
1989 Jaguar XK-S Cabriolet (Convertible) Only 40k miles! Completely Original. Mint. The Jaguar XJ-S is a luxury grand tourer that replaced the legendary E-Type (or XK-E) in September 1975, and was based on the XJ saloon. It was an exceptional grand tourer, more aerodynamic than the E-Type, and was built over an amazing 21-year production life. This longevity is a testimony to its excellence and makes parts availability easy and reasonable. The XJ’s amazingly ultra-smooth power comes from the legendary Jaguar V-12 engine, with notable other V-12s coming from Italian luxury sports car makers Lamborghini and Ferrari. The specifications of the XJ-S compared well with both Italian icons; it accelerates to 60 mph (97 km/h) in 7.8 seconds and reaches 142 mph (229 km/h). The heavy-duty GM Turbo-Hydromatic TH400 transmission is bulletproof and can be serviced widely. Besides the silky smooth power of the V-12 and the unmatchable Jaguar ride, the XJ-S delivered luxury on a par with Bentley and Rolls Royce, with rich leather sport seats, high-gloss wood accents throughout the interior, and a host of amenities: Power Top, Power Steering, 4-wheel Power Disc Brakes, Climate Control A/C, AM/FM/Cassette Stereo, Power Windows, Power Seats, Power Lumbar, Power Door Locks, etc., etc. This particular car is one of the finest examples of the XJ-S Convertible in the States. That is not an exaggeration. It is a 41k original mile, two-owner specimen that was garaged from new, and waxed, serviced and detailed religiously. Nothing has been changed or needed to be restored. No accidents or rust... in fact, very little separates this car from the day it was delivered. The engine compartment is immaculate, the paint and interior as perfect as a 25-year old car can be. (By the way, this like-new car nonetheless qualifies as an antique for insurance, inspection and registration.) The mechanics of the car are noting short of superb. Everything on the car, from engine and transmission to the stereo and power accessories, operates exactly as they should. Given the proper care, this car should last a lifetime. Its built-quality is of the highest standard and its condition, unrivalled. Everything that came with the car originally, including the leather-bound owner’s manual, books, jack, boot, etc. are supplied. Whether you are a Jaguar enthusiast, a collector, or someone looking for an affordable rare and distinctive automobile in perfect condition, this Jaguar is available for far less than the book value*, and will provide immeasurable driving and ownership pleasure. Offered for sale or interesting exchange. Please Call Michael at: 631 553 5300 *NADA Book Value: $14,300 *CPI Value Guide: $14,950 |

Dick Van Dyke escapes his flaming Jaguar on the 101
Wed, 21 Aug 2013Actor Dick Van Dyke was caught in a dangerous situation on a Los Angeles highway (who are we kidding, every situation on an LA highway is dangerous), when his Jaguar XJ spontaneously caught fire. The 87-year-old actor/comedian pulled to the side and attempted to call emergency services when another motorist pulled him from the car. There seems to be some confusion as to whether Van Dyke was passed out or merely calling emergency services.
According to the photos and video from NBC and The Today Show, the car was thoroughly cooked in the blaze and is now a total loss. After the incident, Van Dyke's wife, Arlene, posted that the actor was "fine," sharing a Vine video of the star, the car, and a few CHP troopers that were on hand. Later in the day, Van Dyke tweeted a photo of his toasted sedan, saying, "Used Jag for sale REAL CHEAP!!"
You can view the Today show segment on the incident as well as Arlene Van Dyke's Vine video, below.
Jaguar F-Type Coupe proves sexy can't be disguised
Wed, 19 Jun 2013Jaguar's new F-Type is a pretty potent little pouncer. And while we do love a good roadster, many of us at Autoblog are perhaps more excited about the upcoming hardtop version of Jag's stylish new entry-level sports car. Why? Because even here in heavily camouflaged prototype form, the thing looks really, really good - the sleek roofline blending rather nicely into the F-Type's shapely rump, allowing for better distinction of its pronounced hips over the rear wheel wells.
Mechanically speaking, the F-Type Coupe should be identical to its droptop sibling. That means the supercharged 3.0-liter V6 and 5.0-liter V8 engine lineup should carry over unchanged, though we've heard rumors about a four-cylinder application as well. There's also talk of hotter R, R-S or R-S GT models coming down the pipeline, and based on what we've experienced in things like the XKR-S, we certainly can't deny the allure of such a model.
It's unclear exactly when Jaguar will show the production F-Type Coupe (at the Frankfurt Motor Show, perhaps?), but the car is expected to go on sale sometime in 2014. Check it out in our latest spy gallery, above.
