1990 Jaguar Xj6 Sovereign Sedan 4-door 4.0l on 2040-cars
Concord, North Carolina, United States
|
This is a very nice mechanically and bodily sound all original no rust 24 year old Jaguar that still continues to amaze people on its condition. There is an acid rain blemish on the hood and the right rear door has a ding that has been painted. I am a Jaguar enthusiast and member of the JCNA and can be very anal about the condition of my Jaguars. Within the last two years this XJ6 has had all four brake rotors replaced with Centric Rotors and all disc pads replaced with EBC red stuff brake pads. All fluids have been drained and flushed including the differential and transmission, the problematic self leveling suspension has been replaced with standard springs and new Bogue shocks and mounts. Both front shock mounts have been renewed together with the two rear sub frame bushings. All five tires were renewed with Falken ZIEX ZE-912 in the plus zero size of 215/65R-15 in February 2013. The drivers side heater/air blower motor has been replaced, and the R12 refrigerant renewed,yes cold air-conditioning, distributor cap, rotor,plug leads and spark plugs are all upgraded and new. The high pressure hydraulic hose from the steering pump to the steering rack is new, the fuel pump and filter are new along with the EGR valve and oxygen sensor All systems are working mechanical and electrical, however, although I have replaced the oil pressure sensor twice( it reads 40 psi ) the instrument gauge is still not working correctly, but all is well. The in-line DOHC 6 cylinder Jaguar engine is the best and virtually indestructible, treated to premium gas and 20w-50 Castrol oil and filter changes every 3000 miles it should last up to 300,000 miles before a real inspection is required. This engine loves to be driven and will cruise all day long at 75mph and return about 23/24 miles per gallon, I am only selling because I have my eye on a 1994 XJ40 V12. I will throw in a set of 4 Dayton wire wheels that are good but need some refinishing. This vehicle is sold as is where is with no warranty expressed or implied buyer must arrange pick up |

Jaguar F-Type pitted against Porsche 911 Cabriolet by Tiff Needell
Wed, 24 Apr 2013You knew it wouldn't take long and it looks like EVO is first onto YouTube with a battle between the 2014 Jaguar F-Type and the 2013 Porsche 911. Tiff Needell spends a few laps warming up the tires (read: drifting like mad) in each droptop before getting in a timed run to see who's champion and who's second best.
Before the bell rings, its the Porsche that's got everything to lose, the 50-year-old era-defining sportscar getting on with a 3.4-liter flat-six, 350 horsepower, a seven-speed manual and a 3,197-pound curb weight. Other sportscars, like the F-Type, continue to eye the 911 like a flag atop Everest that they plan to first touch, and then rip from its socket. The mid-trim Jaguar rolls into the contest with a 3.0-liter supercharged V6 with 380 hp, an eight-speed automatic with paddle shifters and a curb weight of 3,521 pounds.
The video below shows you what happens when you let all those numbers fight it out on the same stretch of curvy track. Check it out.

Audi, Jag, Kia and Tesla top Strategic Vision 2014 Total Quality Index
Sun, 06 Jul 2014A couple weeks ago, J.D. Power released its latest Initial Quality Study, which gave high marks to Porsche, Hyundai and General Motors, with the latter earning more individual IQS awards than any other manufacturer. Now, it's Strategic Vision's turn, and it's doling out its praise not to Porsche, but to Tesla, which wasn't even included in the JD Power IQS.
The Model S was named the best vehicle overall in total quality, while Porsche's corporate brother and endurance-racing rival, Audi, was named the best premium brand, alongside Jaguar. Strategic Vision cited the Q5 and the ancient Q7 for individual segment awards, as well as the A5, which was a mere point off the top of its segment. SV also handed out compliments for the Audi's interior work. The win for the German brand is a nice improvement over its IQS score, with which it landed above the industry average, but solidly mid-pack.
Jaguar was without a segment winner, although SV did say that the Indian-owned English brand had a number of vehicles very near the top of their segments. This is the second significant win for Jag in two weeks, after it finished second overall on the JD Power IQS a few weeks ago.
