Glendale, Arizona, United States

 This Jaguar drives smoothly, smoother than MANY cars you will find.  It's fun to be seen in, classic lines, comfort and prestige, matching tires, power windows, locks, cd player works ( a Jag CD changer in the trunk that works in conjunction with the in dash Jag stereo deck), the top goes up and down with the power button and the top looks nice, cruise control works, horn too of course, a/c works but seems lacking in that last setting to really blow hard.  This final year Jaguar XJS models are very desirable, don't miss out.  Paint shows some fade and oxidation due to Arizona sun.  Maaco quoted me $350 for painting the vehicle but I have NOT done it.  The car is being sold No reserve NO RES NR and starting at only one cent, yes only a penny!  Someone will be getting a deal!  The drivers seat has a decent sized hole in the leather from entry exit rubbings, so you will want to address that with an upholsterer, I have a seat cover over the entire seat currently and here in Arizona it's hot and hardly ever rains, you can have the seat cover.  The wood still looks nice on the interior.  I like the way this cat purs at idle.  I like the way the automatic transmission shifts,  the hood latch sometimes takes a time or two to engage shut, this 18 year old No reserve car is Being sold AS-IS, 100%.  The clock on the dash isn't keeping time.  There is no warranty nor any guarantee on this vehicle.  Simply pay for an inspection PRIOR to BIDDING please.  Here comes a disclaimer: Older used cars can squeak or need a tweak or even repairs.   I am guaranteeing nothing.  If something needs fixing you are the responsible party.  Buyer pays for shipping.  No scams please! Take note: she is an 18 year old automobile and this Mondays high here is to be 111 degrees and hotter in the surrounding areas.  Do not try and drive an 18 year old car across our desert and America, getting stuck in hickville looking for a car part would not be fun.  Please be prudent and have it shipped.  Be smart.  It's just the intelligent thing to do with this car and any older car.  The unforgiving Arizona desert is no place to have a breakdown.  Many feel this is the year to buy because it's the last year of the run.  This Jaguar has the cell phone still on the center console too.  Payment must fully clear MY BANK before the vehicle goes anywhere.  Please have the transporter pick this car up within 7 days of your check clearing Many positive attributes surround this Jaguar, but if you are expecting perfection OR ARE retentive then please look elsewhere. I can't POST THIS JAGUAR ANY CHEAPER THAN A PENNY WITH NO RESERVE, be kind with the feedback.  Take a look at what other 96 jaguar XJS convertables are selling for.  That being said I do enjoy driving and hearing compliments about her.  I hope you enjoy it too.  ABSOLUTELY NO RESERVE !  She sells to the high bidder.

2016 Jaguar F-Type debuts available manual transmission, AWD

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

If you're like us, you fell in the deepest, darkest sort of love with Jaguar's F-Type the moment its voluptuous form first surfaced. The car's full-bodied engine specs only furthered our ardor, and the droptop Jag sealed the deal before we even turned a wheel - all it took was hearing its engine bark to life.
And yet, even after driving the original convertible and the subsequent coupe, we've never quite shaken the notion that Jaguar erred a bit too heavily on the Grand Touring side of the equation for a proper sports car. That's partially because even the base model comes with a boatload of weight-adding luxury features. But perhaps more importantly, it's because the F-Type has only been available with an automatic transmission. Admittedly, the gearbox in question is a damned good paddle-shifted eight-speed ZF unit, but it's always chafed a bit that Jaguar wasn't committed to offering purists a manual - even if such a model would never be a high-volume proposition.
Apparently we weren't the only ones bothered by three-pedal omission. According to Russ Varney, F-Type Vehicle Program Director,

Jaguar C-X75 production run canceled

Tue, 11 Dec 2012

"We feel we could make the car work, but looking at the global austerity measures in place now, it seems the wrong time to launch an 800,000-pound to 1 million-pound supercar."
Those words are from Jaguar Global Brand Director Adrian Hallmark, and as true as they may be, it still stings a little bit. After all, we've been looking forward to the Jaguar C-X75 ever since word came from Jolly Olde that it was green-lit for a short production run.
Some of the cool bits and pieces the world will now be without: a powerful but relatively miserly 1.6-liter turbocharged and supercharged four-cylinder engine, two electric motors driving all four wheels and a carbon fiber chassis developed by Williams F1. Sigh.

Jaguar XE teased in new video, will debut September 8

Fri, 05 Sep 2014

Outside of a major auto show, this might be one of the best times of the year for new car debuts, and we couldn't be more excited. Just this week, the low-slung face of the next-generation Mazda MX-5 Miata showed itself to the world, and Land Rover debuted its new Discovery Sport. Plus, there's a double-whammy of launches on the imminent horizon with the unveilings of the Jaguar XE on September 8 and the Mercedes-AMG GT on September 9.
Jag is teasing the launch of its latest midsize luxury sedan with a few glimpses on video. It's strangely secretive, given the fact that Jaguar showed the XE's face completely un-camouflaged a few weeks ago. Regardless, it's quite a looker up front with a sleeker take on the shape of the larger XF.
Because of the way Jaguar is slowly leaking details about the XE, there are a few other things we already know about this new cat, too. It rides on a monocoque chassis made from over 75 percent aluminum, and the automaker is promising 75 miles per gallon fuel economy on the more lenient European cycle for at least one engine in the lineup.
