For sale is my beautiful 1994 Jaguar XJS 2+2 convertible. I am selling this car due to my impending move to Rhode Island, where the climate isn't quite convertible friendly and I won't have a garage.  While not a competitive show car, it is definitely a head-turning daily driver. The straight-6 motor does not leak oil, nor does it blow smoke -- common faults familiar to Jaguar enthusiasts.  It also maintains idle at 650rpm.

The interior and convertible top were replaced by the previous owner (I bought this car in the Fall of 2011) prior to my purchase.  All of the hoses in the engine bay were also replaced by the previous owner. The car has been covered and garaged since I purchased it, and has only been out in the rain on two occasions.

Goods:

-- Power windows, seats, and locks still function properly, as does the automatic antenna.  Power side-view mirrors and seat heaters still work.  You'll note from the pictures that the car comes with a full-size spare tire on a matching wheel.  Tires aren't new, but have lots of tread left on them.  The 4.0L straight-6 still has plenty of power and is a pleasure to drive on highways and curvy roads alike.  Battery is < 1yr old.

Others:

-- Car could use new motor mounts (relatively cheap fix...at approximately $65).  The automatic convertible top still works, but the pump motor has a leak that I've been unable to stop.  A replacement motor costs about $350, and takes about 30min to swap out.  The car could probably also use some new front brakes.  Air conditioner could use a refill, as it doesn't cope well with especially hot days.  Cruise control does not work, and I have never bothered to investigate why.

Extras:

-- Car comes with an all-weather cover if you don’t have a garage or haven’t carved out the space yet for a weekend driver in your garage.  Has a custom cover for the convertible top for those days when you’re going to have to top down all day.  Previous owner mistook blown fuse for a faulty radio, and purchased a second OEM Jaguar-correct radio and corresponding security pin…so in the event that the original radio ever goes bad you’ll have a second one ready to install.

Jaguar design boss Callum reinterprets classic Mark 2 for himself [w/video]

Fri, 29 Aug 2014

As the man behind the styling of basically every Jaguar since the mid 2000s, two things should be known about Ian Callum - he's a big fan of the brand, and he can bloody well get whatever kind of Jag he wants.
His newest car, though, is not what you might expect. Rather than an F-Type or an XJ, Callum has gone old school, and commissioned a custom, resto-modded Jaguar Mark 2.
Designed by Callum and built by Classic Motor Cars in Shropshire, England, the Mark 2 was an 18-month project between the designer and the garage. The essentially new car draws its power from a 4.3-liter engine that's been pilfered and modified from an XK. It's mated to a five-speed manual transmission.

Jaguar gives us our best look yet at the XF Sportbrake wagon

Wed, May 17 2017

Not quite a month after the first official teaser, Jaguar has provided a much clearer look at the new XF Sportbrake. Instead of the overhead shot, we get to see front and sides almost completely unobscured. Almost. The official reveal isn't until June 14, so the car is still covered in camouflage. Since Jaguar will be the vehicle supplier for Wimbledon, and Andy Murray will reveal the car, Jaguar fitted a tennis-ball vinyl wrap. Despite the vinyl wrap, we can still get a pretty clear look at the car. Unsurprisingly, from the B-pillar forward, the XF Sportbrake is identical to its sedan counterpart. From the rear-door back, the roof is obviously extended, and the rear window's rounded corners lead us to believe the previous model's blacked-out D-Pillar has been ditched. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Jaguar also released a video about driving the XF to a remote Scottish tennis court. We don't particularly care about that, but the video does provide some brief glimpses of the Sportbrake's backside. From the looks of it, the taillights are the same between the sedan and the wagon. The rear bumper and exhaust treatment look very similar, too. As previously mentioned, the Sportbrake will be completely revealed on June 14, and the car will be available later this year – and in the US, as a Jaguar representative confirmed to Autoblog. So if you've been eying an F-Pace, maybe wait just a little longer to try out an XF wagon. Related Video:

Take a trip down Jaguar's memory lane with Xcar

Sat, 19 Jul 2014

For decades, Jaguar has been a company of two minds. On one hand, there are its luxurious, British saloon cars. They might be quick, even sporty, but when it comes down to it, they usually put a focus on comfort and accommodations above all. On the other hand, Jag has its sports cars to really get its buyers' blood pumping. Think about it: the XJ might look pretty sweet, but you know deep down that you would rather take the F-Type for a spirited drive, reveling in its snorty exhaust note. In its latest video, Xcar Films takes us on a very enjoyable history lesson covering some of the Brit brand's most exciting models ever.
Xcar hits all of the highlights, starting with the often-overlooked C-Type from early '50s with its somewhat bulbous shape. Things then progress to the drop-dead gorgeous D-Type. The one in this video is actually the first ever made and therefore worth a fortune. Because of that, the host isn't really able to get too aggressive, but it's fantastic to get an idea of what it's like to experience being behind the wheel of this icon. Finally, it ends with a Series 1 E-Type. This was when the classic model was still something of a sports car; instead of the grand tourer that the E-Type became in its later days.
All three of these cars are legends in their own right, and maybe one day the F-Type could be too. Scroll down for a history lesson on some of Jaguar's best sports cars.
