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.

Next-gen electric Jaguar XJ could pack as much as 800 horsepower

Mon, Mar 4 2019

A report in Car magazine puts more meat on rumors about the next-generation Jaguar XJ. As has long been expected, the flagship English sedan is still predicted to move to an all-electric platform. The report says the XJ could be the first to move to Jaguar Land Rover's new Modular Longitudinal Architecture (MLA) suitable for ICE, hybrid and battery-electric vehicles. That's the same platform that's supposed to be used for the XJ's twin, a more car-like Land Rover nicknamed the Road Rover by outsiders. The XJ could inherit I-Pace powertrain internals, with a couple of twists. The I-Pace hides a 90-kWh battery sending juice to two electric motors, one on each axle. Total system output comes to 394 horsepower and 512 pound-feet of torque. According to Car, the XJ could upgrade battery capacity to 100 kWh, and use it to power four electric motors placed at the wheels. Each of those motors could be rated up to 200 horsepower. This reads like pie-in-the-sky concept spec, but if Jaguar were to do such a thing, the XJ would immediately claim the power trophy among its luxury electric competition. Arguably the bigger question is when are we going to see it? Various corners have predicted a launch in 2019 for at least three years, and most recently just a year ago. Unless spy photographers have decided to ignore Coventry, we haven't seen a single mule or camo'd prototype, making the sedan seem no closer now than in 2016. What's more, Car's use of conditionals makes it sound like Jaguar hasn't nailed down the final specs. We know — or think we know Â— the XJ exterior will stick with the five-door liftback style. We get the feeling all else, as with so many things at JLR these days, is TBD. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.

Jaguar C-X17 crossover concept revealed, hides new lightweight aluminum architecture

Mon, 09 Sep 2013

Just as Jaguar teased earlier this month, the luxury marque is debuting its first-ever sports crossover concept at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show, which begins this week. In addition to previewing what a soft-roading Jag might look like, the C-X17 concept also showcases the brand's new advanced unibody aluminum architecture, which it calls the future of its brand.
The British automaker touts the new technical foundation as high-strength, lightweight and extremely stiff, and notes that it incorporates sustainable technologies such as a high-strength alloy made from recycled raw material. The architecture's flexibility means Jaguar will be able to simultaneously manufacture several vehicles on the same production line - a change that will ultimately help the automaker grow its product portfolio.
Indeed, if the C-X17 concept sees production, it would represent a completely new direction for Jaguar, which has previously focused on luxury sedans and sports cars. However, while Jaguar says a range of future models will be built using the new architecture, it hasn't yet mentioned a crossover. The first model to be built on the new underpinnings will launch globally in 2015, and it's - you guessed it - a premium midsize sedan.

Jos? Mourinho shares his fear in Jaguar F-Type R Coupe spot

Fri, 09 May 2014

Jaguar is in the middle of an image makeover. It wants people to know that it makes more than just big, comfy luxury cars. Underneath that there is an edge. In its recent ads, the company wants to be associated with a more tailored, witty form of villainy. The next step is showing that it's also fearless.
Many Americans might not be familiar with José Mourinho, but he's one of the premier soccer, or football, coaches in the world. He's nicknamed "The Special One." Mourinho worked his way up from an assistant coach to lead small teams but eventually took over international heavyweights like Real Madrid and Chelsea.
In a new ad for the Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, Mourinho talks about what it means to be afraid. You might think such successful people overcome their fears, but successful men are driven it, he claims. But being scared doesn't make a man weak - it makes him dangerous. Scroll down to understand what Mourinho is talking about and get an earful from the wonderful exhaust of the R Coupe.
