 This 1994 XJS coupe is in very good condition. Before I bought it, it had been repainted in the original metallic green (not British racing green) which I believe is called Brooklands green. It has the European style headlights and the optional headlight washers. There is a small area on the "fin" (connecting area) that runs from the roof to the trunk lid on the passengers side (this is inside that area - cannot be seen when looking at the car from the side - you need to look at that area from the rear of the trunk facing the rear window) where the clear coat has peeled. This area is approximately 5 inches long by 1/2 inch to 1 1/2 inches in height in the shape of a capital "M". It is relatively inconspicuous. The tires are Michelin P235/60 R15's with a lot of tread left; however there are cracks in the rubber - I was losing air in two of them so I had 4 Coker tubes installed - the problem was solved. I didn't want to buy new tires as the ones on the car have lots of tread. The car runs fine - I drive it on the highway at 65 mph. If it sits in the garage for several weeks without being run, I need to trickle charge the battery. There seems to be a small electrical drain somewhere. I did have my mechanic check this out, but he couldn't find anything specific. When I drive the car regularly, there is no problem with this. The interior of the car is in very good shape - the rear seat is in excellent shape (as no one can fit back there in my opinion). Headliner is fine. Wood panels on doors have cracks - none on the console or elsewhere. Dash is not cracked. I have owned the car for over two years. It is registered, insured, and has a current inspection sticker.

Entry-level Jaguar X-Type successor due in 2015, crossover a year later

Mon, 26 Nov 2012

Jaguar's future product plans keep on slipping, slipping, slipping onto the internet, and the latest on it's entry-level luxury challenger is a 2015 due date. According to Automobile magazine, "most significant game-changer from Coventry" will be arriving on the same PLA platform that supports the Jaguar XJ and 2013 Range Rover. Kacher says the small sedan has already got the green light as codename X760, and will bow first as a four-door sedan, then as a crossover a year later.
This puts a date to a recent Autocar report that a small sedan and crossover were in the works. We've been getting reports of and concepts for a successor to the X-Type ever since Tata bought Jaguar - like the Bertone B99 concept last year, and this enthusiast concept more recently - since everyone knows it's what has to happen for "a new Jaguar" to succeed. We're looking forward to seeing what the English maker comes up with; if it remains true to form, it could be one of the few luxury competitors whose distinct model each look, well, truly distinct.

This classic Jaguar XJ has a 720-hp ungentlemanly secret

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

Forget Tawny Kitaen. If you want to make a Jaguar XJ rock, just do what this guy did: stuff a heavily modified and turbocharged General Motors V8 under the hood, and take it to the track.
The video calls this Series 1 XJ a sleeper, but with its open exhaust and obvious turbo whistle, the once-gentlemanly sedan is anything but. The owner says that the engine is GM LQ9 V8 that has been stroked to 402 cubic inches putting out around 720 horsepower with 12 pounds of boost (in standard form, this 6.0-liter V8 was used in the second-gen Cadillac Escalade). Check out the video below to see what that kind of power does for this classic Jaguar in the eighth-mile.
