Jaguar Xk8 Convertible on 2040-cars
Princeton, New Jersey, United States
My wife's XK8. Great running car, very reliable, fast and comfortable. New front brakes and rotors. I would drive it to California and back. Black paint still nice with normal wear. Nice original interior with normal wear , see pics. Tires have 50% left. One small dent on passenger side front fender (see pic).
Clear "lemon" NJ title: it means that the car was bought back early in its life by Jaguar because of a recall. The car was fixed and re-sold by Jaguar. There is a sticker in the door that shows the recall. The car kept the lemon title since but that doesn't affect the ability to drive and register the car anywhere. The power top is disconnected and the top has to be open and close manually which is an easy operation. The Jag dealer said it's due to a faulty safety module that I found to be available for $208 on ebay. The car has intermittent faulty message warnings: ABS, Stability control and sometime Rear bulb. Jaguar Ray Catena in Edison diagnosed a faulty ABS module and one wheel speed sensor. I have found both these parts easily available on ebay for $50 and $59, much cheaper than at the Jag dealer! I am selling the car as is and will not make these repairs. Spare wheel has the original brand new Pirelli spare tire. The car just passed the NJ inspection good for 2 years. We are driving it everyday, millage may change a little. Please call or email for any question: Chris 609 865 3989. The car is available for test drive in Princeton NJ. No reserve auction so be prepared to buy the car and pay for it if you bid. Deposit is expected immediately at the end of the auction. Thank you |

2016 Jaguar XF mule spied in Germany
Wed, 30 Oct 2013From our best guess, the Jaguar test mule shown in these spy shots could very well be our first glimpse at the next-generation Jaguar XF, due out around the 2016 model year. The current XF has been around for five years already (launched in 2008), and this mule is likely testing powertrain or chassis components for a new version of the midsize Jaguar sedan.
With what seems to be a stretched wheelbase and wider track, this is almost certainly not a mule for the 3 Series-fighting Jaguar XS. That being said, though, there is also the outside chance that this could be a mule for other future Jaguar Land Rover products including a production version of the Jaguar C-X17 crossover or the Jaguar-based Range Rover Grand Evoque. Only time will tell what these images truly foretell, but if nothing else, it proves that Jaguar is definitely staying busy these days.
London skyscraper caught melting cars
Tue, 03 Sep 2013A new skyscraper under construction in London is apparently to blame for some mysteriously melting car parts on the city's surrounding streets. The 37-story building at 20 Fenchurch Street, nicknamed the "Walkie Talkie" for how it looks, features a convex side of glass windows that apparently concentrates the sun's rays like a kid with a magnifying glass. Instead of smiting ants, however, the building was caught focusing its sun-sourced laser death beam on an innocent Jaguar XJ parked on Eastcheap street. The intense heat managed to melt a sideview mirror, plastic C-pillar cover and Jaguar emblem (scroll down for an image of the damage).
Fortunately, the construction company, Land Securities, had some scruples and reportedly left a note on the car for its owner reading "Your car's buckled, could you give us a call?" They've also since apologized and agreed to pay for the £946 done - about $1,500 - in damages by their blazing hot building. A joint statement with the Canary Wharf district in which the building's located was also released. In it, the developer acknowledges concerns about the reflected light and says it's looking into the matter. The city has also decided to close a few parking bays that could be in the building's line of fire, so to speak, until a solution can be engineered. Since news of the melting Jag broke, other vehicle owners have also come forward claiming the building, re-nicknamed the "Walkie Scorchie," has damaged their cars, as well.
This isn't the first shiny-new-building-attacks-cars story we've heard - architect Frank Gehry's Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles was built amidst concern that its polished ribbons of stainless steel were blinding motorists and causing accidents, along with raising the temperatures of nearby buildings with its reflected light. The building's surfaces were later given a matte polish.
Ian Callum, Brian Johnson and Lord March pick 10 top Jaguars
Thu, 11 Sep 2014An automaker with as rich a heritage as Jaguar is bound to create a few experts along the way... and some divergent opinions, too. So on the eve of the debut of the new XE, Jaguar brought together three experts to whittle down the long list of classic Leaping Cats to just ten.
For this gargantuan task, it brought in Ian Callum (who, as the company's chief designer, knows a thing or two about Jaguars), Lord Charles Henry Gordon-Lennox (the Earl of March and founder of the Goodwood Revival) and Brian Johnson - who may be better known as the frontman of AC/DC, but also a classic car enthusiast, collector and racer in his own right.
So what did the designer, the nobleman and the celebrity choose? The SS100, XK120 (namely number NUB 120), the C-Type that competed at the 1953 Mille Miglia, the D-Type that won at Reims, the Mk II sedan, the E-Type that served as the Geneva show car, the one and only XJ13, company founder Sir William Lyons' personal XJ6 S1, the TWR XJS touring car and the 1988 Le Mans-winning XJR-9.
