1995 Jaguar Xjs Convertible 2-door 6.0l V12 on 2040-cars
Andover, Massachusetts, United States
|
This is a unique and rare opportunity to obtain a true collector car. This is the last year of the 6.0L V12 XJS. If you are not familiar with the 6 liter V12, it was a new engine developed by Jaguar under Ford ownership, and so is both more powerful than the previous 5.3L V12, and also extemely reliable, with modern electronic ignition/fuel injection and Ford's wiring harness removing the old Lucas-based electrical problems. Jaguar only built 243 V12 XJS in 1995 and only about 80 of them came to the US market. Only a handful of those have the rare turbine style wheels and this example was fully optioned with a rear spoiler, CD changer and coldweather pack. This cat has the much sought after Black exterior on Cream leather interior with beige piping and Elmwood paneling. It is in virtually new condition, and you will not see another one like it. As
new, it has never been driven in the rain, and you can see the beauty of the
original black paint in the reflectivity of the trees in the photos. As well,
this cat's cream colored leather interior with beige piping has been regularly
cared for with leather conditioner, and kept well preserved in its heated
berth.
There
is not a scratch on any one of the rare turbine style alloy rims and the
original tires are still holding English air.
Even the original wool carpet mats have never been stepped on.
Fluids
were regularly changed by a Jaguar specialist, and so this beautiful classic
car can be driven without reservation, or shown at your local Jaguar club
concourse immediately. This is the last year for this special car in perfect condition, and with only 10,500 miles on it, I can safey say it is one of a kind, and the best investment XJS you can buy. The original window sticker price on this car was over $85,000. I am only selling this appreciating classic because I decided to stop showing it and instead have bought a new XKR to DRIVE!! (seen in the last photo) I am listing this on ebay for a week or two before I consign it to a classic car auction. You can save yourself some money by bidding on it now before the price increases to include the consignment fees and commission! My reserve price is at or below the prices bid recently for some lesser 94/95 V12 XJS, so you can be assured that if you submit a realistic bid, you can own this spectacular Jaguar.
I will repond immediately to any questions.
Good Luck! |

2016 Jaguar F-Type debuts available manual transmission, AWD
Wed, 19 Nov 2014If you're like us, you fell in the deepest, darkest sort of love with Jaguar's F-Type the moment its voluptuous form first surfaced. The car's full-bodied engine specs only furthered our ardor, and the droptop Jag sealed the deal before we even turned a wheel - all it took was hearing its engine bark to life.
And yet, even after driving the original convertible and the subsequent coupe, we've never quite shaken the notion that Jaguar erred a bit too heavily on the Grand Touring side of the equation for a proper sports car. That's partially because even the base model comes with a boatload of weight-adding luxury features. But perhaps more importantly, it's because the F-Type has only been available with an automatic transmission. Admittedly, the gearbox in question is a damned good paddle-shifted eight-speed ZF unit, but it's always chafed a bit that Jaguar wasn't committed to offering purists a manual - even if such a model would never be a high-volume proposition.
Apparently we weren't the only ones bothered by three-pedal omission. According to Russ Varney, F-Type Vehicle Program Director,
Jaguar Land Rover opens winter testing facility in Minnesota
Wed, 12 Dec 2012As it begins the rollout of the all-wheel-drive Jaguar XJ and XF models, Jaguar Land Rover has just announced that it has opened a new facility in northern Minnesota for winter testing. Located in International Falls, MN (on the US and Canadian border), the British automaker says it is one of the coldest locations in the Continental US. Jaguar's new Instinctive All Wheel Drive system was developed primarily to help sell more cars in the northern US, so it only makes sense to open a testing area in the US as well.
With temperatures that can drop to minus 55 degrees Fahrenheit, International Falls was chosen to mimic some of the worst weather a Jaguar or Land Rover will ever see. The grounds house testing chambers, various road surfaces and even a frozen lake. This new facility complements the hot-weather testing grounds in Phoenix, AZ.
The official press release is posted below.
Jaguar releases C-X75 concept build story
Thu, 27 Jun 2013If you want to know what was going through the minds of decisionmakers at Jaguar when the company decided to build the batty C-X75 Concept, look no further than the quick video after the jump. Jaguar set about building a car with the performance of a Bugatti Veyron, the electric range of a Chevrolet Volt and the emissions of a Toyota Prius, and they turned to a legendary engineering firm to help make it happen. Williams, the same crew behind Williams F1, helped Jaguar stitch the concept car together, and the result is unlike anything we've seen before.
The twin-charged 1.6-liter four-cylinder mounted amidship is paired with an electric motor at each wheel for a combined output of over 850 horsepower. And, since the whole chassis is hewn from carbon fiber, a production version would've been light enough to give machines like the McLaren P1 and Ferrari LaFerrari a run for their money. Shame they apparently couldn't make the business case work. Watch the concept build story in the video below for yourself.
