2007 Jaguar Xk Base Convertible 2-door 4.2l on 2040-cars

Year:2007 Mileage:52857 Color: no noticeable dents
Location:

Brunswick, Georgia, United States

Brunswick, Georgia, United States

Nothing is perfect, but this car is about as close as you could expect for a used.  It looks practically perfect, it drives practically perfectly, and everything works.  The factory chrome wheels had some rust spots, so I just installed $5,000 worth of brand new chrome wheels and Dunlop SP Sport MAXX TT tires - they have less than 1,000 miles on them.  I drive the car to work daily, so the mileage will change from the listing accordingly, but the round trip is only 16 miles, so it's not mounting up quickly.  The car is located in Brunswick Georgia, and can be seen and driven at just about any time.

This car is equipped with the Luxury package, which includes a full leather-covered dash (which you'll see in the photos I've protected with a dash mat), and 16-way adjustable seats on both the driver and passenger sides, as well as the upgraded "surround sound" stereo system.  You can't find a more comfortable, custom-fitting seat in an automobile at any price.

It's difficult to appreciate from the photos, but this car has a metal flake paint that makes the dark blue come alive like deep water, and the finish is outstanding.

I am the second owner, and have had the car 18 months.  I'm only selling because I'm retiring within 2-3 years, and while I thought this would be a fun retirement toy, I now am too afraid of the economy to keep such an expensive toy - got to downgrade to something cheap and practical.  The first owner was a lady who receives a new car from her grandfather's trust every 5 years.  She put 42,000 miles on it in 5 years, and it was pampered by the dealer.  I have had to do nothing to the car but replace the front brakes, and I do keep it garaged and serviced.

Disclosure:  several months ago, a fellow backed into me.  There was very light damage to the fender and door.  There was no body putty/panel repair work done.  The fender, vent opening, side light, and door shell were purchased new from Jaguar and replaced.  The body shop did an excellent job:  they blended in the bumper, hood and rear quarter panel, and pulled off both front and rear bumpers so the new paint would go completely around front and rear edges of the parts being painted, leaving no masking lines or weak points for fading or peeling to start.  If you come see the car, I'll challenge you to find any indication that will reveal to you which side was damaged.

There is a loan on the car, so you or your lender will need to work out the details of money/title exchange with my credit union.


NOTE:  Please don't be put off by negative feedback on another car I sold on ebay a few months ago.  That was a car that had been wrecked and rebuilt, sold with a "rebuilt" title, clearly disclosed as such, with everything described that I knew about the car's damage and restoration, and the caveat:  this car is being sold as-is, where-is, so please come and inspect it before bidding.  The fellow who eventually bought it bid without inspecting the car.  I sent him an email and said that I would prefer he come inspect it, because I didn't want any misunderstandings.  He said at the price offered, with the photos included, and my description, he was satisfied to buy without inspection.  So of course, after he bought the car and had it shipped to him, he began to nag me about "things wrong with the car that you didn't disclose."  I knew this was bogus, because he claimed several things such as, the car not only needed a front-end alignment, but the shop where he took it told him that "it couldn't be aligned."  I sent him a copy of the receipt where the car had been aligned at a local new car dealership only two weeks prior to the sale, including the sheet showing the in-spec results of the alignment.  He claimed the convertible top wouldn't work, so I sent him a copy of the receipt where I had taken the car to the Lexus dealer in Jacksonville only 3 weeks prior to the sale, where (all clearly shown on the invoice), I asked for a diagnosis, for "convertible top operates by does not always close and latch securely," and the report was, "right rear top position switch adjusted, top now operates properly."  I could go on.  While this is a much different automobile that has never been damaged (other than the minor dent I described above), and it has a clear title - STILL - TO PROTECT BOTH YOURSELF AND ME - please come inspect and drive the car.  I will be perfectly happy to go with you to take the car to any shop or dealer you want to perform a complete inspection.

Tata confirms JLR is looking at NA for new plant

Thu, Feb 26 2015

Despite recent rumors to the contrary, Jaguar Land Rover is considering building a factory in North America, though not necessarily in the United States. The confirmation comes directly from former Tata Motors boss and still chairman emeritus Ratan Tata in a conversation with Automotive News. "The company is indeed looking at North America as a location for another plant. Where they locate that plant, in which country or which state they locate, is something they will need to decide," Tata said to AN. The magnate indicated that he wasn't taking part in the decision, though. Rumors of JLR's plans to open a factory in the US go back to at least to 2014. The automaker was reportedly looking to open a plant in the South to produce around 200,000 vehicles a year, and at the time, South Carolina was considered a possible location. However, later speculation made Georgia a likely contender, especially after the state's governor reportedly flew to the UK to pitch the company on the idea. Recently, the business had allegedly changed its mind and had turned the sights towards Austria or Turkey as potential alternatives. JLR is seemingly on a factory building binge at the moment. It opened a new engine plant in the UK late last year and its first manufacturing center in China at about the same time. The latest Land Rover Discovery Sport will also get assembled in Brazil for the local market.

Stirling Moss' Jaguar C-Type could bring $7.5M in Monaco

Mon, Nov 23 2015

With little over 50 examples made and a decorated racing history, the Jaguar C-Type is one of the most sought-after models ever made by the famous British marque. Bonhams has a very special one coming up for auction – one that Sir Stiling Moss drove at Le Mans in 1952. Jaguar built chassis number XKC 011 for its works racing team in 1952. It made its debut at Silverstone at the hands of pre-war racing legend Peter Walker. Then the factory outfitted with specially elongated bodywork for Le Mans, where Moss teamed up with Walker to split driving duties. Sadly it didn't make it to the finish line thanks to an engine failure, marking the second of eight DNFs that Moss would suffer in ten campaigns at the French endurance race. Moss drove this C-Type in several more races after it was converted back to its standard bodywork. It was then raced by Ecurie Francorchamps before being sold to run in British club racing. The current owner acquired it in 1963, and has held onto it until now. XKC 011 is scheduled to highlight the upcoming Bonhams event at the Fairmont Monte Carlo during the Monaco Grand Prix Historique next May. Bonhams has not published a pre-sale estimate for how much it expects this example to sell for. However in correspondence with Autoblog, the company's auction specialist James Knight revealed: "We certainly feel the car will exceed GBP5m and has the potential to achieve much more." That base estimate works out to over $7.5 million at current exchange rates. We'll be watching to see whether the final sale price comes closer to the $3.7 million for which - according to the Sports Car Market database - Gooding sold one C-Type in 2012, or to the $13.2 million which RM Sotheby's raised for another this past August.

Timed to coincide with the Monaco Grand Prix Historique, the sale will take place on 13 May 2016. "Already renowned in motorsport circles for its annual Monaco Grand Prix and Monte Carlo Rally, the glittering Mediterranean Principality is now to host the Bonhams Monaco Sale," said James Knight, Bonhams Group Motoring Director. "The auction will be carefully curated, tailored to offer only the most desirable models to the market.

Jaguar Land Rover moves closer to building Slovakia plant

Tue, Aug 11 2015

Jaguar Land Rover has announced its intention to build a new assembly plant in Slovakia. Though it has yet to make the final decision, the British automaker has signed a Letter of Intent with the Slovakian government. Its next step is to launch a feasibility study before committing. If the company does go ahead with plans, it wouldn't be the first automaker – or even the first European luxury automaker for that matter – to start producing in Slovakia. Nor would it be the first Jaguar Land Rover plant outside the UK, either. The Volkswagen Group, PSA Peugeot Citroen, and Kia all manufacture in the Central European country. VW's Bratislava plant in particular handles production of the Touareg, Audi Q7, and Porsche Cayenne. In the past few years, JLR has expanded its production capacity to new locations outside of the UK. It has a new factory in China, one under construction in Brazil, and has been manufacturing in India – home country of its parent company Tata – since 2011. It recently announced a manufacturing contract with Magna Steyr in Austria, and is investing in its facilities back home as well. Though yet to be finalized, the prospect of manufacturing in Slovakia has proven more favorable to JLR than other locations in Europe or in the United States or Mexico – all possibilities that the company says it looked into. It has yet to reveal just what it would produce there, saying only that "the plant would manufacture a range of aluminium Jaguar Land Rover vehicles," that the plant would be earmarked to come online in 2018 and eventually ramp up production to 300,000 vehicles. The prevailing wisdom would seem to indicate, however, that the site is being considered for the next-generation Land Rover Defender.
