Greetings!  I have decided to sell my 1990 Jaguar XJS Convertible. You may say to yourself, oh! another XJS for sale. Well! I follow the XJS market very closely. There once was a time you could have any E type you wanted for these prices also. This is a wonderful car and will serve its new owner for years to come. This is the fourth XJS that I have owned, and definitely the finest one! 1990 was the final full year of production of this model with the beautiful round English headlights, shortened tail lights, and of course the final refinement of the 5.3 V12 engine. 1990 was the first year to introduce a driver's airbag and tilting steering column. The car is finished in Old English White with tan Connolly hides. The interior is totally original and in spectacular condition. The seats show beautiful natural patina for a car of its age, but still look fresh and new. The wilton carpeting and beautiful German tan canvas top show perfectly. The car has fewer than 84,000 miles and two previous owners. This is an unaltered car. It enjoys its original interior, carpeting, glass, radio, etc. The door panels have never been cut so as to instal larger speakers. I have seen them with boom boxes on the rear sill! The body has never completely been re-sprayed. The car enjoys its original paint in areas which include the hood, door jams, engine compartment, and trunk areas. Again this is just a great looking car with the proper amount of wear and use. Of course, the car has never had an accident, nor has it ever been rusted.

Thankfully, the car enjoys its original lattice style 15 inch wheels with matching brand-new tires, including the spare. The car has never been bastardized by the installation of body side moldings, CB or cell antennas, and most importantly, the car was never fitted with those god awful fender flare trim moldings. The windows have never been tinted. This is just a wonderful car to watch appreciate, and enjoy as time passes.

Feel free to contact me at (914) 403-1768. The car is located in the scenic hamlet of Bedford Village, NY, just west of Stamford CT. For you New Yorkers, you might be comforted by the fact that Bedford lies only 42 miles north of Times Square. Tools, owners manual, boot, boot bag, tire cover, etc., all included.In closing,  I am a seasoned collector of only fine cars. I began my hobby in 1978 when as a 24 year old man,  I had the good fortune to study with one of the greats,  Ed Jurist, owner of the Vintage Car Store in Nyack NY.  Mr. Jurist taught me life lessons. Only start with good examples, and with marques and models which inspire emotion to its owner. ( actually we are really stewards of these properties. one day they will be in other hands)  This is why all these years later I follow his advice. Keep it original and as unrestored as possible.

If you have transportation needs,  feel free to contact my dear friend,  Dave Lambert of Transport Masters in Boca Raton FL. He will gladly give you a free estimate for professional and courteous service. 561 504 7030.  Lastly, I have used eBay for over ten years. My approval rating is 100%. I take this privilege quite seriously.  Call me first. Come and see the car or send a representative to check it out. Thank you, John Louis. (914 403 1768)

Jaguar Land Rover opens first overseas factory in China

Wed, 22 Oct 2014

Anyone who's a car fan knows that Jaguar and Land Rover cars and trucks all come from the UK. And while we don't doubt that will remain true for the most part, it won't be an absolute truth for long, as the British automaker has just opened its first factory overseas.
Its new plant in Changshu, China, is the result of a $1.8-billion joint venture between JLR and local automaker Chery. It covers some 4.3-million square feet and will, once at peak capacity, produce 130,000 units specifically for the Chinese market, where JLR sells over 100,000 vehicles each year to make it the company's single largest market worldwide.
Production at what's officially known as the Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Company will start with the Evoque, of which one in five globally are currently sold in China. Production will eventually encompass three models. We already know that the Discovery Sport will be next, but the third model line has yet to be announced. JLR has confirmed, however, that the Changshu plant will produce unique models and derivatives specifically for the Chinese market, so we wouldn't be surprised to see a long-wheelbase version of the forthcoming XE or next-generation XF assembled there to satisfy local tastes.

Jaguar F Type V6 S vs Triumph Street Triple R in open-air track attack

Sun, 21 Sep 2014

Typically, these track battle videos pair up car against car or, in more disparate circumstances, car versus crossover, as we saw the other day. While the outcome of that battle was quite predictable, what'll happen when an equally fetching (and fast) four-wheeler is put up against one of the icons of the two-wheeled world? Evo just had to find out.
Matching up a Jaguar F-Type V6 S Convertible against a Triumph Street Triple R is at least more of an even fight than the last battle between the Porsche Cayman GTS and Macan Turbo. The Triumph has a 675-cc engine to work with, and is very light. Meanwhile, the Jag has a thumping 380-horsepower, 3.0-liter, supercharged V6 to haul about it's considerably heftier heft. Who will come out on top?
You'll need to watch the full video to find out.

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,
