This is a SALVAGE titled 2012 Jaguar XJL that is a Run
and Drive. The car has NOT been fixed. I have included many pictures and 11 HD
videos (and you should watch them in HD to see all the detail) that describe in great detail the condition of the car (both good and
bad). I have also written up detailed descriptions of many components of the
vehicle below. Please take the time to read the description and watch the
videos. It will really help in you making the decision of whether the car is
right for you. The car has a salvage branded Arizona title.
History
I bought this car 4 months ago from an IAAI auction in
Phoenix AZ. This was bought from an insurance company. You can see the details
in the pictures of the title. My goal was to fix the sheet metal of the car and
use it as my daily driver for the next few years. Unfortunately I now have to
travel outside the US, and I can’t justify the large amount of money locked
into this car.
Condition
Body/Chassis
The accident is in the front of the car only. The Hood, L/H
Fender, Front Bumper and Grill and all its components (headlamp washer, front
parking sensors etc.), Crash Bar and Support, Radiator Support (where the hood
hinges attach) are all destroyed. The R/H Fender is untouched. Everything from
the windshield backwards is untouched. All the other body panels are in
excellent shape with only 1 very small ding in the right rear door. The paint
is super clean. The undercarriage of the car is untouched (see video under
suspension). The chassis rails all seem straight except the Left Hand front
Shock tower might have moved because one of the support bars is very slightly
bent compared to the other side. I have highlighted this in 2 pictures with the
Red circles to showcase the difference. I am told that when fixing the car if
you pull back the Right Hand fender support (which you must do as it’s clearly
bent in the video and is easy to do because its aluminum sheet metal) it should
pull back that shock support to its original position.
Engine/Transmission
These are in perfect working condition. The video shows the
car being driven. I have not included a more detailed drive because I was
running the car with no radiator. This is no cause for concern, because I ran
the car for less than 30 seconds and the engine was stone cold before running.
There is a check engine light on because the thermostat was destroyed and the fan
sensor is disconected. I have a new thermostat that I purchased and will come
with the car. There are no issues with the drivetrain what so ever. There is one broken air filter box that can be seen in the videos above.
Suspension/Wheels
The car in the videos can be seen as riding high on one
side. The Right hand side is sitting at its correct level but the left hand
side is high. The Jag has air suspension in the back and when in an emergency
the suspension goes to maximum height and firm mode. I believe that the sensor
for the front left wheel was disconnected in the accident (which I have since
re-connected) and because of that the computer gave the emergency ride height
order to the left airbag. Re-calibrating the ride height and erasing the error
requires that the car visit a Jag shop with the Jag diagnostic computer. This
video shows that the undercarriage is super clean and there is not a single scratch
on any suspension components. Even all the plastic cladding underneath is
perfect. The wheels are in excellent shape, not scuff marks or anything. The
tires are Pirelli P Zero and are practically brand new.
Cooling System/HVAC
The radiator is broken. The Fan is in working condition
with a few cracks in the shroud (see video). The mounting points of the fan are
still strong and I am certain the fan could be used as is. The A/C condenser
looks slightly bent, but there is no visual break or crushing. It needs to be
tested but also looks salvageable. The thermostat is broken and I have bought a
new one which will be sold with car. The radiator hoses are all in good shape.
The A/C lines are crushed in some places and 2 or 3 will need to be replaced.
The transmission cooler looks bent but I can’t tell if it leaks. Should be
replaced as a precaution (not an expensive part). The radiator support bracket
on top; where the hood attaches; (see video) is destroyed and needs to be
replaced.
Electrics
The headlamps are destroyed. The front parking sensors are
missing and so the rear camera system will not work if parking sensors are not attached. All other
electrics on the vehicle work perfectly. Rear lights, automated trunk opening
(see video), sunroofs, seats, stereo, windows etc work perfectly. There are no
issues whatsoever with the electrics, except for a dead battery. The car comes
with both keys (very rare for an auction car and replacement keys are
expensive). All manuals and spare tire kit etc are stock factory and come with
car.
Interior
The interior of this car is super clean, except for 1 flaw.
There is a crack in the driver side door wood panel (can be seen in video).
Everything else is perfect. The leather has no cracks, everything works. The
headlining is super clean. The trunk area is perfect. The console area is
perfect. This is also the long wheel base version so there is plenty of space
in the back. I have included 3 videos for the interior. Some is redundant but I
wanted to showcase how clean the interior is.
Airbag/Safety
The dash shows an airbag sign but no airbags or seatbelts
have been deployed. This is because I took off the radiator support bar which
has 2 front accident sensors attached and the car logged the sensors as
unplugged so is throwing that warning. Once the car is fixed, you can erase the
airbag light using a Jag computer. In the video you can also see
all the error messages showing on the dash.
Steering
The steering fluid reservoir is broken (I have bought a new
one and it will come with the car). No other issues with the steering at all.
Brakes
In perfect working order
