I am selling my stunning 2001 Jaguar XK-8 Sport convertible. This was a one family owned, 36K mile Jaguar that I purchased in Texas in 2011. I had looked for a few years for a low mileage, southern Jag in the ultra rare " Roman Bronze" color. This color was available in only 2001. Upon purchase I had the vehicle shipped to me and put in heated storage. Spring 2012 I put 4 Cooper Zeon RS3A tires on the "rare" 18" chrome Jaguar O.E. rims. ( a $2,000.00 plus option). The Jag was then aligned. It is a staggered fitment application. I drove it about 3k miles last summer. It runs perfectly, has no known issues, and gets up to 27 MPG! The paint and interior are in excellent condition as is the top. The top operates perfectly. I have 1 key/ 2 Fobs/ all original manuals. Autocheck is clean. I truly believe that the combination of low miles, Southern history and rare color will set this XK-8 apart from others in future value. The Roman Bronze color is rare,unique,elegant and gets compliments from everyone. E-mail or call 802-370-4095 if you have any further questions. Good Luck! Philip

Jay Leno's Garage drives Steve McQueen's 1956 Jaguar XKSS
Tue, 27 May 2014Steve McQueen might be the coolest American male of the 20th century. With movies like Bullitt and Le Mans, McQueen established himself as the king of cool of his era, and on the list of actors you would pick for a fantasy racing team - he or Paul Newman are the natural first choices. The latest Jay Leno's Garage video highlights one of McQueen's most special cars - a 1956 Jaguar XKSS.
Just 16 XKSS models were made because a fire at the Jaguar factory halted production. It was meant to be a street version of the company's very successful D-Type racer, with a modified version of its 3.4-liter straight-six-engine and a four-speed manual gearbox. McQueen clearly had an eye for great vehicles. He drove his Jag around Los Angeles years after it was a cutting-edge piece of technology. Since then, it became part of the Petersen Automotive Museum in LA. Autoblog's The List even took a ride in it when the show visited the museum.
The XKSS is one of the pinnacles of automotive design of the '50s, and its association with McQueen makes this example even more extraordinary. Leno is in love with the car from the moment he sees it, and it's hard to argue with him. Between its emphasized curves and raspy exhaust, this is one sexy Jag. Scroll down to get an eyeful and earful from one of McQueen's favorite cars.

2013 Jaguar XF Sportbrake
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Editor's Note: Our reporter was anxious to get some time behind the wheel of the XF Sportbrake, even though Jaguar only had a very small window available for us to drive it. As a result, we weren't able to capture our usual original images to go with the Quick Spin story. Please accept our regrets, and Jag's lovely stock photography, instead.
The last wagon attempt from Jaguar was the X-Type, built between 2003 and that model line's unceremonious end in 2009. That X-Type and its legacy represent a real dog of a chapter for Jaguar, and for the Halewood factory where the barker was built. It was the final joke told prior to the brand's proper rebirth phase - a phase we're enjoying the heck out of today.
Current magnanimous Jaguar owner Tata can be thanked for this new wagon, the XF Sportbrake. Like all newness coming from Jag these days, this new wagon also feels lightyears more serious an offering, ready to compete squarely with established premium wagon makers across Europe. A Jaguar wagon in America is a far-off priority for the company, frankly. Still we deserve to know what we're missing for the time being from this (sometimes overly) cherished British firm.
