98987 Miles

This Jaguar is a great looking car with the paint in great condition. It seems to of always been an inside car as there is no sun damage to any of the paint, dash, convertible top, or leather. It runs and drives great with effortless amounts of power. The two front tires have wear and are nearing the end of their lives and causes some vibration. The interior is in great shape with no major rips or stains. There is some age related ware and a small split along a seem on the bottom of the drivers seat. please see photos.  A set of real sheep skin seat covers is included with the car in this auction.

The convertible top is in excellent shape with no rips. the back glass window is also in good shape and the top doesn't leak when the car is washed! The power top moves quickly and quietly. All power windows and seats are functional. The radio has been upgraded to a CD player but the original is avalible in the truck. The Climate control operates as it should, the lcd screen can be hard to read at times depending on the temperature out side. The AC doesn't blow cold constantly. I have only had it come on once. There is NO check engine light and NO air bag lights on while the car is running. All the lights come on upon start up of the car and then go off just as they are intended to do.

Under the hood all fluids are full and appear to be the colors that they should be. I have also been told that the bakes are in good shape as they have lots of pad left. When you put the car in park there is a sensor that tells the computer it is in park. This sensor often is unable to tell and it makes a beep when you exit the car. The beeping stops in a few seconds. It does not cause any other issues as the car is in park, It just beeps to tell you that you may not be as you exit the car.

This car is titled in my name and holds a rebuilt Nevada title. I received this car as a form of payment from a client so my knowledge of the car is fairly limited. it lived in his garage for many years and he rarely drove it. I have driven it from California and around Vegas without any problems. It seems to be a great car and just needs a new owner. I am not an expert on cars so I hope i have described everything. I hope the photos speak for them selves. Please contact me with any additional questions.

PLEASE NOTE:

A bid is a commitment to buy, not a conditional offer. If you bid and win, the car is yours! Any non paying bidders will be turned over to E bay.

A $500 Deposit is required via money transfer or pay pal within 24 hours of auction close. NO exceptions.

Pick up is with in 1 week of action close. unless previously discussed. After one week there will a daily charge for storage and insurance.

I have described the car to the best of my abilities. However it is a used car. All inspection must be done prior to auction end.

Best of luck! She is a great car!

Jaguar Land Rover gives Lyft $25M and a fleet of cars

Mon, Jun 12 2017

Lyft recently raised $600 million in a massive funding round, and now we know that $25 million of that came from Jaguar Land Rover, via its mobility services subsidiary InMotion. The car maker's investment in Lyft goes beyond just funds, however; it's providing Lyft drivers with a fleet of Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles as part of the tie-up, and it's also going to work with the ride-hailing tech company on autonomous vehicle testing. This is yet another high-profile partner for Lyft after a spate of recent new collaborators, including Waymo and, just last week, Nutonomy. Now, Jaguar Land Rover is also joining the company's Open Platform for autonomous cars: The collaboration with InMotion will see the Jaguar Land Rover-owned company "develop and test its mobility services, including autonomous vehicles" using Lyft's platform. Lyft's ability to rapidly bring on a lot of partners in the car maker space, specifically around autonomy, may have a lot to do with rival Uber's ongoing problems, which now also include mounting calls for CEO Travis Kalanick to step back, at least temporarily, from his leadership role. Lyft has also been pretty clear about seeking to partner on autonomy, rather than pursue its own tech, which is likewise different from Uber's current approach. Uber, too, has brought automakers to the table around self-driving services and making use of its ride hailing platform for mobility service offerings. Both Uber and Lyft seem interested in being the layer that connects riders and these future services, and for automakers, it means leaving a complex and challenging part of the picture to partners with experience and expertise, rather than having to spin up that part of the tech business themselves. The fleet provision in the deal is also interesting, and suggests the partnership between the two could involve more strategic cooperative service offerings ahead of the advent of commercial self-driving tech. Lyft gaining more ground among automakers beyond longtime partner GM also explains why it was reported that the ride hailing company turned down overtures regarding a potential acquisition by the Detroit-based automaker.Written by Darrell Etherington for TechCrunch.Related Video:

Thieves stole $3.7 million worth of Jaguar Land Rover engines

Fri, Feb 3 2017

This past Tuesday was not a good one for Jaguar Land Rover. According to British news source Birmingham Mail, just over $3.7 million worth of engines were stolen from the company's factory in Solihull, England. Reportedly, the thieves drove up to the facility in a stolen semi-truck, found a trailer full of engines, hooked it up, and drove off. The thieves did this twice in one night, with the same truck, and got the first trailer in just six minutes. Perhaps more shocking is that Birmingham Mail reports this is the second time a theft of this type has occurred at the facility. The previous time happened in almost exactly the same way, but the engines taken were valued at just over $1.2 million, and five people were convicted of the crime. Currently, local police are looking for the latest suspects and the engines. The trailers were found, but were empty. We got in touch with a Jaguar representative who provided us the company's official statement: "We can confirm that we are working closely with West Midlands Police to investigate the theft of engines from the Solihull manufacturing plant. A reward is on offer to anyone who has information which leads to the successful recovery of these engines. It would be inappropriate for us to make any further comment whilst this investigation is ongoing." This was the only statement he would provide, and didn't provide answers as to what engines were stolen and if there would be any impact on manufacturing or vehicle deliveries. But if you're in the UK, and you've got a tip, let the cops know.
