Jaguar XJ-S V12 shines in classic MotorWeek road test. “It’s been three years since our last visit with the sail-planed Jaguar XJ-S HE and, to be honest, it hasn’t changed much.” We don’t blame MotorWeek’s John Davis for making that statement. By 1987, the V12 grand tourer didn’t need to change much. Jaguar had long […] More »

Welsh roads and some Jaguar track time soothe the automotive soul. What’s your idea of a perfect day? We suspect it involves your car, presumably a Jaguar, and we presume it looks a lot like the ideal perfect day for Carfection’s Alex Goy.

Our highlighted lots include a couple of E-Types and two 1950s Jags, although you can […] More »

Jim Pace wrings this Jaguar out at Virginia International Raceway. Jaguar’s legendary XKE was built, like most non-saloon Jags, from true racing pedigree. Like the XK120 that kicked off Jaguar’s sports car provenance, the later E-Type could hang with the best of its contemporaries.
