This 1966 Jaguar XKE is a barn find in rural Georgia. It is the 294th 2+2 covered headlight car out of more than 2,600 Series 1 cars made. It is a project car, but is in good shape for its age and ready for restoration. It comes with 4.2-litre engine with 3 carbs, automatic transmission and dealer installed A/C. The odometer reads 57,993 miles. It was last registered in Puerto Rico in 1984, and was shipped to Georgia not long after. Since then it has been sitting (30 years) in a barn with a concrete floor.

This classic is white with a black interior. At one time in its history, it had been repainted maroon, then the last owner repainted it in white lacquer, which has crackled. The paint has been partially stripped, then left in storage while the owner moved on to other projects.

The car is missing the exhaust system, and it has some rust, mainly in the driver's side rocker, door bottom and floor (all pictured). There's also a little rust at the bottom of the hatch and a few other spots. I can see Bondo work in several places. The turn signal lenses are cracked and one is missing. With that said, I've seen much worse.

The spare tire well is in great shape, however, and the tire may be the original Dunlop. The motor turned over 3 months ago. The interior is in very good shape with some normal wear. There are no cracks or tears in the door panels, dash or console. The seats are pretty nice. The headliner and most of the carpet has been removed to check floor condition (all 4 shown). All the glass is present.

The rest of the car appears to be complete, except for the front bumper, which the previous owner is trying to locate.

The last picture shows the car as found.

Please let me know if you would like to see more pictures or if you have any other questions. Call me at 912-257-5333.

This car will be sold with a Bill of Sale ONLY, as Georgia does not title cars this old. I also have the 1984 Puerto Rico registration.

High bidder to pay $1,000 non-refundable through PayPal upon completion of auction. Balance to be paid within 7 business days. The car will not be released until all funds have been cleared.

Thanks for looking and Happy Bidding!

Playmate of the Year Raquel Pomplun gets a Jaguar F-Type

Sun, 12 May 2013

The Jaguar F-Type is slinking its way into vastly divergent corners of the celebrity world. Lana del Rey is its songstress, Englishman-playing-American-terrorist Damien Lewis lead its cinematic debut in Desire, San Francisco quarterback Colin Kaepernick gets the athletic endorsement, and now it's just been driven behind the "Adults Only" doors at the Playboy Mansion: Raquel Pomplun was gifted a year's use of an F-Type for being named 2013 Playmate of the Year.
There's a video below of Pomplun and her F-Type getting 'camera ready,' and a press release below that in case you want to, you know, "read the article."

Is the Jaguar XFR-S really worth $17k more than the XFR? [w/poll]

Wed, 22 Jan 2014

Adding performance to a car is rarely cheap - whether you're looking to do it yourself or rely on the factory to do it for you. In the case of the new Jaguar XFR-S, the cost differential over an already-impressive (and somewhat expensive) XFR is a stout $16,800. Auto Express recently got a hold of both cars to see whether that price pays off on the track.
For that price, Jaguar gives the XFR-S an extra 40 horsepower and 41 pound-feet of torque - for a total of 550 hp and 502 lb-ft - to go with a stiffer suspension, beefed-up differential and, of course, meaner styling. We don't want to ruin the results of the AE video, but right off the bat, the host says that you can feel the extra power of the XFR-S, but that it's not a "night-and-day difference."
Scroll down to see what happens when two high-powered Jags go head-to-head on a track. And then be sure to let us know whether or not you think the added money is worth it for the XFR-S in the completely informal poll below.

Jaguar Land Rover details JustDrive connectivity suite

Tue, 18 Nov 2014

JustDrive will allegedly deliver on the long-promised idea of natural communication between driver and car.
Jaguar Land Rover's all-new InControl system is set to get a big bump as the British company will add a new service called JustDrive, which expands on the smartphone-focused infotainment system by adding a singular voice controller for a wide array of the system's currently available apps.
