2005 Triple Black Convertible Jaguar Xkr on 2040-cars
Shannon, North Carolina, United States
Thanks for looking at my really nice Jag XKR with low miles, huge factory optional tires and wheels, also equipped with many high tech features such as nav system, traction control,speed limiter, trunk located cd player and much more, I constantly had to read owners manual for operational guidance.Make no mistake about it this car has equipment like a luxury car but has the horses and performance of a hand built Jag.I purchased the car from Crown Ford in Fayetteville NC about a year and a half ago, car still had the original battery so I recently replaced battery with a high cranking amp Diehard. Also had the shifter linear control unit replaced as the manual shift mode wasn't working properly when I bought it.Other than those minor replacements I've had no problems.Searched for years for a XKR with low miles and in great condition and when this one was found I jumped right on it, hate to part with her but recently took early retirement and need to make financial adjustments so she needs a new owner. Also, car is insured through Hagerty Collector Car Insurance, they consider it an exotic, beat all others for price too.Finally, don't miss your chance to buy an originally priced at around $100K sports car at a fraction of that with production numbers around 800 units.Thanks for your interest.

Lapping Le Mans with 1956's version of a dash cam
Wed, 01 May 2013Mike Hawthorne and Ivor Bueb won The 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1955 driving a Jaguar D-Type. The following year, a few days before the race, a British broadcaster put cameras on Hawthorne's car, hung a mic from a plate on his race suit and had him narrate a lap of the Circuit de la Sarthe.
It is compelling viewing. A new pit complex was built after the massive accident on the front straight in 1955, but this was still a time when crews prepped for the race on roads that were open to the public. Hawthorne's lap includes maneuvers to avoid bicyclists and cars, and gems like letting us know that doing 185 miles per hour down the Mulsanne Straight was where you could "relax a little, recover your energy." Watch him work it like the men of old in the video below.
Jaguar Land Rover building new Special Vehicle Operations facility
Sun, 17 Aug 2014It's only been a couple of months since Jaguar Land Rover announced the formation of its new Special Operations division, and we've already seen a number of vehicles to come out of it. But now the British automaker has announced a new facility that will house its elite skunkworks department.
Set to be built at Prologis Park in Ryton, England, on the outskirts of Coventry, the new Special Vehicle Operations Technical Centre will encompass dedicated production lines, F1-style flexible workshops, a dedicated paint studio and VIP suite for commissioning bespoke projects. JLR will spend some $33 million on the facility that will be home to 150 specialists - 100 of them being new hires.
The first project which the Special Operations division is working on is the F-Type Project 7, but we've already seen more projects in the pipeline - including the upcoming Range Rover Sport SVR - and you can bet there'll be more. The revival of the Lightweight E-Type also falls under Special Operations, but is undertaken by the Jaguar Heritage department located nearby at Browns Lane.
Jaguar Land Rover may build factory in Saudi Arabia
Tue, 11 Dec 2012The Middle East is one of the fastest-growing markets for Land Rover, so it makes sense that the automaker is looking to set up shop in the region. According to Automotive News, Jaguar Land Rover is in talks with the people of Saudi Arabia to build a factory in the country at an expected initial cost of $1.2 billion. Still in the early stage of talks, the proposed facility could start up by 2017 using locally sourced materials such as steel and aluminum.
Such an arrangement could be beneficial for both entities as Saudi Arabia looks to diversify its oil-reliant economy and Land Rover could get local production capacity of around 50,000 units. The report also says that the agreement talks about the possibility for Jaguar models to be built at the same plant further down the road.
This won't be the first vehicle produced in Saudi Arabia - that honor goes to the KSU Gazal-1 - but it will be the first from a major global automaker.
