Check out the video Click on arrow to go to full screen. 1955 Jaguar XK-140 First before describing this fabulous Jaguar XK-140 Roadster, MissChiTown would like to give a little of its philosophy on post war European sports car collecting. Many collectors have found that while the pre-war cars are very attractive in their styling and design, the idea of driving them on modern roads and highways is cumbersome and sometimes dangerous. Many of these collectors have turned to post-war sports cars, as they are the beginning of the standard of meeting modern road speeds, handling and stopping requirements. The XK-140 Jaguar roadster in this ad is not only visually voted
one of the ten most beautiful European post-war sports cars ever designed but
it has also been upgraded by its owner so that it is a full, reliable,
comfortable and dependable tour car with such improvements as an upgraded
larger Jaguar 3.8 liter 220 bhp Jaguar MII engine. Upgraded bucket leather seats (a Jaguar
option). A fabulous paint job in
one of the most striking colors, Ecurie Ecosse (Scottish Flag Blue) a Jaguar
LeMans racing color. Yes this is a car that has it all – design, road capabilities and charisma. While this car looks like a first place winner and the upgrades are improvements for modern and fast highway speeds in a very comfortable manner. The seller has provided the following description of the 1955 Jaguar XK-140 Roadster in detail and we suggest that you also view the video to get a flavor of just how attractive this Jaguar roadster is to the eye of the beholder. The seller has told us that the car has been upgraded with a Jaguar 3.8 liter 220 bhp Jaguar MII engine and is a strong engine with excellent oil pressure. There are 67,350 miles showing on odometer - actual unknown. The seller has told us that this is a fun driver and he enjoys winning awards with the car at the British Car Club shows.

Jaguar working on lighter F-Type with C-X75's twin-charged engine?
Wed, 09 Jul 2014Every automaker has its own agenda when it comes to concept cars. Some roll them out just to showcase where it's heading. Others create them to gauge public opinion for a potential production model. Still others only showcase a concept car to preview a model that's already well underway. Jaguar is just such a company.
In the last several years, Coventry has only produced a handful of concept cars, and each of them - the C-X16 that foreshadowed the F-Type, the C-X17 that previews the upcoming crossover and Project 7 that is now entering limited production - has led straight to the introduction of a new, commercially available model. Except for one: the C-X75.
The extreme lightweight supercar was set to succeed the XJ220 with a number of advanced technologies, but unfortunately Jaguar ended up pulling the plug to watch from the sidelines as McLaren, Ferrari and Porsche got all the attention for their new hybrid hypercars. But that doesn't mean that some of the technologies initially developed for the C-X75 won't find their way into other Jaguar products.
Jaguar-Land Rover will use recycled waste to make parts for future models
Thu, Oct 1 2020Jaguar-Land Rover's future models will be partially made of junk. The company announced it's working on integrating a recycled material named Econyl into its manufacturing process in the coming years. Created in 2011 by Italy-based Aquafil, Econyl is a fiber made with a blend of recycled industrial plastics, fabric offcuts sourced from clothing manufacturers, and discarded fishing nets aimlessly floating around the ocean. It's more eco-friendly to produce than oil-based fibers, according to Jaguar, and it helps clean up the planet. Jaguar and Land Rover will use Econyl to make floor mats in the not-too-distant future. Neither company listed the models they'll put the material in, but it's reasonable to assume recycled floor mats will be available in the next-generation XJ, which will be electric, and the next-generation Range Rover. Both will be released in 2021. Eco-friendly materials are slowly but surely spreading across the luxury car segment. Jaguar already offers the I-Pace with a Kvadrat upholstery that combines regular wool and up to 53 recycled plastic bottles per car. Audi's fourth-generation A3 is optionally available with an upholstery made largely using recycled plastic bottles, and Volvo estimates at least 25% of the plastics in its cars will be recycled starting in 2025. Environmentalist organizations are putting an increasing amount of pressure on carmakers to deliver so-called vegan interiors. A group called EarthSight recently accused several companies (including Jaguar-Land Rover and BMW) of using leather from cattle raised on illegally logged lands in Paraguay. Representatives for the British company stressed they found no evidence to verify EarthSight's claims. Related Video:
Xcar experiences the 2015 Mille Miglia from a Jaguar C-Type
Fri, Jun 12 2015Xcar Films has returned to the Mille Miglia this year for another trip from Brescia to Rome and back. However, unlike the last survey of the historic rally from the comfy seat of a Jaguar F-Type, it did things properly in 2015 with a first-person look at the entire event from a somewhat temperamental Jaguar C-Type. As you'd expect, you get to check out 1,000 miles of beautiful Italian roads and similarly gorgeous vintage sports cars, but the reporting here is great, too. Alex Goy alternates between navigating and learning to drive the C-Type with its tricky gearbox over the four-day rally, and he narrates the entire video, as well. From what we can tell, participating in the Mille Miglia is essentially a license to break every law of the road imaginable. The police not only allow this to happen; they encourage it. Goy does a fantastic job of giving viewers an idea of what's it like to take part in the historic event. Being in a 50-year-old racecar for that long looks absolutely exhausting but also completely worth it.
