Condition: Used: A vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections. ...

Condition: Minor scratches and nicks in the paint, tires are excellent, recent front end alignment with new bushings, VERY low miles, new coil, new wires, new spark plugs, new windshield (windscreen for English), new turn signal switch, new wiper switch, and additional electric fan installed for the radiator. The soft top needs to be replaced but the frame is in good condition. The soft top still works but it splitting by the rear windows. The car is not original but with some TLC it could be a great car to show. However, it still gets everyone's attention even in it's current condition.

Features: This model is the North American version with pointless distributor, hardtop (makes it nice in the rainy season), and overdrive (4 speed with electric switch for 5th).

History: I am the third owner of this wonderful machine, car has been in Arizona and New Mexico almost all of it's life making rust a non-issue, and since I've had it I have changed the oil regularly, and kept up with other minor repairs including the new parts listed above. It's a wonderful car and I hate to see it go.

Shipping: Pick up only, buyer is responsible for coming and getting it. Any other arrangements have to be agreed upon before hand.

Additional: This is an 'As Is' sale since I'm a private owner and cannot provide a warranty. That and I'm moving to England and cannot take the car with me. Thanks for looking!

Jaguar F Type V6 S vs Triumph Street Triple R in open-air track attack

Sun, 21 Sep 2014

Typically, these track battle videos pair up car against car or, in more disparate circumstances, car versus crossover, as we saw the other day. While the outcome of that battle was quite predictable, what'll happen when an equally fetching (and fast) four-wheeler is put up against one of the icons of the two-wheeled world? Evo just had to find out.
Matching up a Jaguar F-Type V6 S Convertible against a Triumph Street Triple R is at least more of an even fight than the last battle between the Porsche Cayman GTS and Macan Turbo. The Triumph has a 675-cc engine to work with, and is very light. Meanwhile, the Jag has a thumping 380-horsepower, 3.0-liter, supercharged V6 to haul about it's considerably heftier heft. Who will come out on top?
You'll need to watch the full video to find out.
