The highly anticipated Coventry Wheels brand, designer and manufacturer of custom wheels exclusively for Jaguar, has begun shipping their first product, the Hornet wheel.

Coventry wheels http://www.coventrywheels.com have been designed specifically for Jaguar vehicles including the S-Type Jaguar, X- Type Jaguar, Jaguar XK and Jaguar XJ. These custom wheels complement Jaguar’s motoring performance and detailed craftsmanship.

Jaguars are notoriously difficult to fit custom wheels to, due to the precisely engineered fitment specifications required. Coventry wheels have been designed with that challenge in mind; to create a wheel that aligns with the staggering artful style of the Jaguar, and to provide the perfectly engineered wheel fitment that ensures no performance compromises.

“We created Coventry wheels to make the perfect wheel for Jaguar motor cars.” says Terence Scheckter, chief executive officer of Coventry Wheels. “Our first Jaguar wheel, the Coventry Hornet has the perfect look for Jaguar motor cars and has been engineered to fit properly on all late model Jaguar motor cars.”

The new Coventry Hornet wheel for Jaguar, http://www.coventrywheels.com/jaguar-wheels.php, is offered in 17 inch, 18 inch, 19 inch, and 20 inch wheel sizes, and is available in chrome and silver finishes. The alloy wheels are built in staggered applications to allow enthusiasts the opportunity to run wider wheels on the back of their cars and narrower wheels on the front.

All Coventry wheels are created to be hub centric on Jaguar cars, and engineered to fit perfectly. Coventry wheels work with the original Jaguar bolts and caps and are designed with the exact offset for the Jaguar motor car.

Coventry wheels for Jaguar are made to extremely strict quality standards and embody more than 30 years of design experience.

Sales of the custom Coventry Hornet wheel for Jaguar have been strong. “We are very proud of what we have achieved at Coventry Wheels”, says Terence Scheckter “Our first wheel, the Hornet, has had a fantastic response from our customers.”

Coventry wheels are available now at Coventry dealers. Please click here for more information. http://www.coventrywheels.com/dealer_locator/index.php.

Galpin Jaguar, the leading Jaguar dealer in the nation according to Jaguar Cars, inc., launched a new marketing campaign designed to demonstrate their confidence with the new 2011 Jaguar line-up.

Beau Boeckmann, Vice President of Galpin Motors, stated that Galpin Jaguar?s goal is to challenge customers to test-drive a 2011 Jaguar at Galpin before considering selected competitive makes. If a customer buys or leases an eligible comparably equipped Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Lexus or Porsche within 10-days after a new Jaguar test-drive at Galpin, they will receive an American Express

The Jaguar XJR is positioned to take a special spot in the collector car enthusiast market. One of Europe’s best secrets, the Jaguar XJR has the best of all criteria used by the industry’s top investors in the collector car market. A tribute website has been established for owners of the Jaguar XJR, people who are looking to buy one and sellers. The site is exclusive to the Jaguar XJR, the address http://www.xjr-registry.com.

“In the car collector world, European cars never seem to have the same value or collector status of famous American cars unless you go back about 50 years. The keys are always rarity, popularity and reliability. But for the best investment potential, you have to be able to find a car that is selling below its’ competitive market. Americans love raw torque and this is why Big Block V8′s dominate the Muscle Car market. The Jaguar XJR has both, a V8 and a supercharger, plus they are extremely rare, very reliable and are a bargain in the used car market place when compared to their competition”, says Gino Niccoli a leading Classic Car Specialist in Tempe, AZ.

Gino Niccoli has spent almost 30 years studying, buying and selling classic cars. “Every generation looks back about 20 years to buy the cars that were coveted ‘when they were growing up’ and right now the hottest cars, with the best potential for appreciation are cars from the 80′s. Few of these cars could match the performance of the Muscle Car era and this is part of why (Muscle Cars) continue to appreciate at a rapid rate. The cars from the 90′s hold the best future potential for the X-Gen and above because they are the first cars to provide a full level of modern conveniences with the performance of old”, says Mr. Niccoli who believes 90′s cars, including the Jaguar XJR, may be the ‘buy it now’ of modern cars. American cars have always dominated this market, but Mr. Niccoli believes cars like the Jaguar XJR, BMW M cars and the AMG Mercedes may change this trend. Mr. Niccoli established XJR Registry in foresight of this trend. The Jaguar XJR began production in 1995 with a supercharged, in-line six, but in 1998 they produced a supercharged, all aluminum, 32 valve 4.0 liter V8 making 370hp. Built on the popular XJ platform, this car is today one of the fastest production, 4-door sedans ever made. Less than 4,000 per year were ever built worldwide. For the last 8 years, the Jaguar XJR has ranked in the top 5 for reliability by J.D. Power and Associates. The Jaguar XJ sedans have been built for more than 40 years and the XJR has been in continuous production for more than a decade.

Its former UK subsidiaries (Land Rover and Jaguar) were bought by Tata Motors of India in March 2008. In 2007, Ford became the third-ranked car-maker in US sales (being beaten by General Motors and Toyota). It was Ford’s first decline from second position in 56 years.

FORD HISTORYFord was launched in 1903. Henry Ford, the company’s founder, revolutionized mass production by introducing methods for manufacturing cars on a large-scale using highly engineered manufacturing along travelling assembly lines.

But Ford bounced back introducing its compact Ford Falcon in 1960 and the Mustang in 1964. By 1967, Ford of Europe was established, which builds some of the UK’s most popular cars.
