Beautiful Low Mileage 2004 Jaguar Xk8 Coupe on 2040-cars
Coudersport, Pennsylvania, United States
This is a very low mileage and hard to find 2004 ebony over cashmere Jaguar XK8 coupe with just 31,585 miles on the odometer. Only 1 in 10 XK8s were produced as coupes and it is very unusual to find one available with so few miles. I am the 3rd owner, having purchased the car from a member of the Pittsburgh Jaguar club in October of 2010 with 21,000 on the odometer. Garage kept, never smoked in and very rarely driven in the rain. Averaging just 3,000 pampered miles per driving season. No wheel rash on factory optional 19" Apollo wheels. Power head rests not working with no other known mechanical issues. The car has been entered in the Watkins Glen Vintage Weekend Concours d'Elegance for the past 3 years. New Continental Extreme Contact tires fitted in the Fall of 2012 with only around 3,000 miles driven. New Interstate battery installed spring of 2013. Extras include an Adamesh Sports Exhaust System with quad tips which gives this Jag a beautiful full throated exhaust note that is commensurate with it's high performance engine. Aftermarket high performance air intake. Aftermarket XKR style mesh grill. Custom British Autowood shift knob with green growler emblem and matching custom burl walnut British Autowood cigarette lighter. I have all receipts for my ownership and the for the second owner as well. To most Jaguar enthusiasts the 1997 through 2006 XK8 series of Jags has the clearest visual lineage to the iconic E-Type of any modern Jag and never fails to attract attention on the road. This car sold for close to $70,000 new and still drives like it. In my opinion it has the very best ride and handling characteristics of any car I have ever had the pleasure of owning. It never fails to impress with it's combination of elegant drop dead gorgeous styling and highly refined grand touring performance. It is the perfect grand tourer. Selling to acquire a low mileage 2005 XKR of the same series. Please email me with any questions. Personal inspection encouraged. Clear title in hand. Buyer responsible for shipping but I will help on this end. Non-refundable deposit of 500.00 due through Paypal within 48 hours of end of auction with balance by certified bank check, cash or wire transfer prior to receiving the title and keys. Thanks for looking.

Jaguar trademarks EV-Type nameplate
Mon, 17 Nov 2014Green may have been a popular color choice for the classic Jaguar E-Type, but even in Lightweight form (pictured above), it was hardly what you'd call environmentally friendly. Not by today's standards, anyway, with six-, eight- and twelve-cylinder engines displacing between 3.8 and 5.3 liters. But Jaguar looks to be preparing to revive the nameplate - or at least one similar - with a new electric vehicle in the works.
According to the latest intel, Jaguar has applied both in the US and in Europe to trademark the name EV-Type. The implication that it's developing an electric vehicle is clear, as is the reference to its iconic sports car of yore. But more than that, we don't know. We could be looking at an electric version of the current F-Type, a project to convert original E-Types to electric power or a different model altogether.
It wouldn't be the first time, of course, that we'd see Jaguar toying with the idea of electric propulsion. A couple of years ago, the British automaker demonstrated a plug-in hybrid XJ_e prototype, and showcased both the C-X16 and C-X75 concepts with advanced hybrid powertrains. But it has yet to put any such system into production, relying instead on the small diesels it sells in Europe to keep its carbon footprint small.
Jaguar testing hardcore F-Type R-S GT?
Wed, 16 Apr 2014Some automakers make a hardcore model, then sit back and revel in its awesomeness. Jaguar does things a little differently. It takes a standard production model, gives it more power, bigger brakes and a tighter suspension and slaps the letter R on it. Then it gives it even more power, even bigger brakes and an even tighter suspension and calls it an R-S. Sometimes the engineers in Coventry don't even think that's enough, so they strip out some weight and dial things up even further and call it an R-S GT.
So far, they've only gone that far with the XK (transformed first into the XKR, then the XKR-S, and finally the XKR-S GT), but with that model on its way out, Jaguar seems to be preparing to give the newer F-Type a similar treatment. Now we can't be sure that what we're looking at is an F-Type R-S GT, especially since the 550-horsepower engine from the XKR-S and XFR-S is already powering the existing F-Type R Coupe, but it does seem to have all the makings of a hardcore performance model.
Compared to the existing F-Type, the development model pictured here has a bigger front splitter (like the one on the Project 7 concept), a big rear wing and a set of what looks like pretty big lightweight alloys. It's also, tellingly, a roadster, which (unlike the coupe) has until now topped out at 500hp with the V8 S model. So while it may be hard to say exactly just what Jaguar has in store for us here (or what they'll call it), one thing's for sure: it's gonna be fast and loud.
2014 Jaguar F-Type V8 S [w/video]
Thu, 14 Nov 2013Withhold judgment on the world's greatest exhaust note until after you've heard the Jaguar F-Type V8 S (scroll down now for a sneak peek). Its cackle, boom and pop under deceleration will have you rifling through its glovebox looking for a tool to remove the stereo as an in-dash audio system.
Combining modern technology with age-old exhaust plumbing, Jaguar's British engineers have developed a way to propel spent combustion gases into the atmosphere in a manner that elevates the complete driving experience. At idle, it purrs. Under acceleration, it roars. During cruise, it soothes. Perhaps most compellingly, during deceleration, it titillates.
Thankfully, the newest two-place convertible from Jaguar isn't only defined by its mesmerizing soundtrack - the F-Type would be an impressive sports car even if the world went silent.
