 This listing is for a very rare 1987 Jaguar XJSC. For those not familiar, the XJSC is a low production 2 seat targa / convertible. This Jag is red with a black interior and black top. The car was originally sold in Canada and the odometer is in kilometers. The vehicle has been in the US since 2002 and in California since 2009. and will be sold with a clean California title and current California smog. The current odometer reading is 60,100 kilometers (about 37k miles). I believe this to be the original mileage but have no way of knowing for sure. The vehicle will be sold "mileage exempt" (all cars over 10 years old sold in California are sold mileage exempt).
 
The Jag runs and drives well. The engine is strong and smooth and the transmission works like it should.
 
The exterior of the car looks great. There are no dents or signs of rust. Paint looks nice with good shine. There may be a couple of very small paint blemishes, but the overall appearance is excellent. The top appears to be original and shows its age. It is fully functional and there are no tears, but the rear window is cloudy and the material is worn and discolored in some spots.
 
The interior is very nice. The black leather looks great with no tears or signs of wear. Dash, door panels, and carpet are all in good shape.
 
Negative issues: AC doesn't seem to be cold, oil pressure gauge doesn't work, and the radio recently stopped working. The car could probably use an alignment and the convertible top is worn.
 
Overall this is a nice rare car that runs well.  With  a new top this car would be a "9" cosmetically.
 
Winning bidder must pay a $500 non refundable deposit via paypal within 24 hours of the auctions end. The balance is payable in cash or certified funds within 1 week. Car must be picked up within 10 days. California buyers are responsible for registration ($130) and sales tax and will be issued title and registration in their name.

Say goodbye to Jaguar's vestigial oval grille

Tue, 10 Dec 2013

Jaguar has been on a campaign to replace any and all retro cues with modern ones. Just look at the current XJ and the one it replaced, or the XF and the S-Type that came before it and you'll know what we mean. The one remnant is the XK and its oval grille, in and of itself a throwback to Jags of old (which started to look more like a certain Star Wars alien in above-pictured XKR-S form). But don't expect it to hang around.
Newer Jaguars have been ditching the oval aperture for a more squared-off one, and the next XK will have to fall in line. But don't expect that to be the only change in store for the next-generation Jaguar coupe and convertible.
With the new F-Type now holding the more enthusiast-oriented ground, the next XK is expected to grow bigger, softer and more luxurious. That will likely mean a more commodious back seat as well, though that shouldn't be hard to do considering the lack of space in the back of the current model...

London skyscraper caught melting cars

Tue, 03 Sep 2013

A 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.
