After years of Jaguar XJs that looked more or less the same from model year to model year, it seems as if the Jag traditionalists are going to have a little adjusting to do. This heavily clad mule is the work-in-progress that will become the new XJ and it seems to be breaking with the long-held form...

There should be no arguments over the fact that Aston Martin makes some of the most stylish and gorgeous cars. If you don't believe me, then think of the wonderful DB7. It was introduced in 1994 and designed by Ian Callum based on Jaguar XJS platform. This breath taking car has been made even more glmaorous by the Alchemists. It has been plated with 24-carat gold and platinum leaf and embed seven diamonds...

A member at Jalopnik came across this custom off-road'n, mudd bogg'n, dixie blow'n, lifted Jaguar XJS luxury car at a local Wal-Mart in Ft' Pierce, Florida (so cliché)' Underneath the carriage of this bogger is a straight axle conversion with gas charged shocks, 40 inch Super Swamper mudd tires, custom front and rear bumper guards, side guards with integrated steps, trailer hitch, and a pink star sticker...

Reader Brian spotted this classy Jaguar XJS-HE at a Wal-Mart in Ft. Pierce, Florida over the weekend, leaving us to ponder how something like this comes about. We're also somewhat surprised at how well the XJS body lends itself to jacked-up 4x4 duty — the proportions just seem to sort of work. But what's underneath that gorgeous British coachwork? Judging by the live axle and frame rails, we're pretty...

We're really starting to like Stick Shift , Vanity Fair 's weekly gay car blog. It explains to us the intricacies and variations of the gay psyche in a language we can understand: cars. Take, for instance, that really nice middle-aged guy who runs the local antiques shop. He's always inviting you and your teenage friends over to get high and he lives alone in a big old house that he can't quite afford...

Just today I received the title for the latest car I attracted, a 1976 Jaguar XJS V-12. Not only is the car itself a collectible classic, but it was owned by legendary bodybuilder and movie star, Steve Reeves. It appears I’m starting to collect celebrity cars. The car before this one was the exotic 1998 Panoz AIV Roadster, a rare [...]

Rare 90's V12 XJS Your publisher has a fatal weakness for Jaguar XJS convertibles. But this lust comes with one caveat. It was only after a decade of clumsy execution (the Mark II XJS (1981-1990) convertible earned its rightful place in Richard Porter's Crap Cars ), that for five graceful years (1991-1996) Coventry finally got it right with the gracefully executed drop top GT pictured. During the 80s,...

Filed under: Software , Features , Reviews Some applications remind me of cars. For example, most Java based applications are Volkswagon Things as they're useful in certain situations, but horrifying (or hilarious) to look at. But once in a while you get a Jaguar XJS : a beautiful exterior that doesn't bely its underlying power. That, and you frequently have to spend some time at the mechanic. Leap...

I've always quite liked the Jaguar XJ, but the problem is always the messy, untidy old humans who drive them.
