1993 Jaguar Xjs Base Coupe 2-door 4.0l on 2040-cars
Chicago, Illinois, United States
|
1993 Jaguar XJS Coupe- This is a special car as only 30 coupes and 70 roadsters were imported with a factory installed 5-speed manual transmission. Except for 1993 and 1994, Jaguar did not equip export vehicles with manual transmissions. With a 4.0 liter engine and the manual transmission, it is a great driving car. Overall condition is very good. I am a mechanic and I’ve owned this car for 10 years. I have over $4800 in receipts for parts that have been installed, not to repair, but to make it better. Suspension has been all redone with bronze racing rear bushings as well as poly front bushings and rack bushings. I also have (which is included, a new clutch kit $1200 in the original package, and new front seat leathers $800 and new steering hoses. It does not need a clutch or steering hoses, but I figured it would be a good idea to have them just in case. The car has two very small bubble areas in the paint that would be pretty easy to fix, the headliner is brand new. The “ski slope wood” on the console is brand new (bought for $350 NOS from Jaguar) The rear end has been completely pulled from the car and the brakes have been done, including emergency brake pads and new rear pinion seal installed. Transmission and differential has had Royal Purple Synthetic Gear oil since I’ve owned it, the engine is very strong and has had only synthetic since I’ve owned it. I was planning on keeping this car forever, since I’ve owned 4 XJS’s in the past and it took a long time to find a manual transmission car. But I bought a newer XK8 and this car just sits in a garage, which is just a shame. All brakes are new, including front calipers, rear calipers have been rebuilt. Clutch master and slave have been rebuilt with a new rubber clutch line. This car needs nothing more than a new home…..a good home. Asking $7950 OBO. Quinn Marcom |

Evo pits Jaguar XKR-S vs. Mercedes SL63 AMG in heavyweight droptop fight
Wed, 12 Mar 2014We recently received the sad news that the Jaguar XK is ceasing production by the end of the year, but what better way to bid it farewell than with some big, smoky powerslides? The retirement of the sporty GT isn't actually the topic of the latest video from Evo - it's on hand to compete against the Mercedes-Benz SL63 AMG to see which is faster around a track. Still, we can think of it as a wonderful sendoff for the Jag.
Both convertible grand tourers get their laps around the course, and they couldn't be more different. Driver Jethro Bovingdon gets some grins out of them both, but absolutely giggles while behind the wheel of the XKR-S convertible. The SL63 AMG is the more powerful of the two, but as we know, that doesn't always matter at a racetrack. You'll just have to scroll down and watch the video to see which of them is actually the winner.
Xcar drives Jaguar C-X75, other Spectre villains of 007
Thu, Oct 29 2015James Bond returns to US theaters very soon in Spectre, and with the action-packed film wrapped, the producers are lending out the keys to some of the movie's automotive stars. We've already seen Jay Leno behind the wheel of Bond's Aston Martin DB10. Now, Xcar's Alex Goy has taken a turn in some of the flick's villainous rides from Jaguar Land Rover, including a very special Jaguar C-X75. The crew from JLR's Special Vehicle Operations team certainly did an impressive job of giving the movies baddies some appropriately nefarious rides. To challenge Bond, they turned the Land Rover Defender into a beast with chunky, off-road tires and blinding-spot lights. They also made the Range Rover Sport SVR even more diabolical than normal with a blacked-out look and LED lightbar. Of course, the king of Spectre's villain cars is the C-X75. According to Goy, most of the ones in the movie use the company's 5.0-liter, supercharged V8, but two are actually original prototypes with the hybrid setup. He gets to drive one of those special examples in this clip. While limited to some low-speed cruising, the coupe still looks wonderfully menacing on the road. Related Video:
Jaguar Land Rover may buy Silverstone racetrack for new HQ
Thu, Dec 3 2015Jaguar Land Rover might add another chapter to its venerable motorsports legacy by purchasing the revered UK racetrack Silverstone to use as its new company headquarters. JLR could reportedly offer 22.7 million pounds ($34.1 million at current rates) to buy the circuit, according to Automotive News Europe, which cites several British media sources. The British automaker would then invest the equivalent of $78 million to turn the historic track into a celebration of the brand, including a museum, experience center, and hotel. The company would also construct space for its marketing team and engineers, Automotive News Europe reports. Motorsports would still continue there, too, which means the course's Formula One legacy is safe. Neither JLR nor the British Racing Drivers' Club, which leases the track, have confirmed the rumors. The BRDC only suggested that it received several confidential offers to purchase the circuit. Silverstone has a motorsports history that goes back to the late 1940s and is often the home to the Formula One British Grand Prix. The track's organizers have a long-term deal to continue hosting the F1 race, too. Today, the course also features major events from MotoGP and the FIA World Endurance Championship. In November, Jaguar released a video that celebrated some of its legacy at Silverstone by bringing the modern XJR and Le Mans-winning XJ-R9 LM at the track. If the company's purchase happens, you can expect to see a lot more Jags and probably some Land Rovers lapping the course. Related Video:
