According to the page counter over 2,400 people had looked at the auction and no one was bidding.

The seller added a few more photos in the second auction, but the photographic quality was so different that a person might assume that they were two different cars and something funny was going on. I figured it was probably because the seller had only two very small blurry, low resolution photos of the car, and who is going to bid on something like that? The car was re-listed, and the seller was using the same pictures he used in his first auction: I saw another auction that I liked for a ’68 2+2 that ended as a no-sale because the reserve wasn’t met. Well, his auction didn’t fall through, so I kept looking. But the auction ended before I could arrange financing, so I emailed the seller and told him that I was interested in the car and if the winner of his auction backed out I would buy the car for the high bid price. I looked at several auctions featuring XKEs and found one I really liked, and was in my price range. So I got excited about buying a Jaguar and started looking at XJ-Ss on ebay, and that got me to thinking, why not look for the car I really always wanted ever since I first saw one in the early sixties: the XKE! (The actual name of the car is “E-Type” but it was called an XKE in an advertisement in the US and the name stuck. If the car had been gray or dark green with a biscuit, or tan interior I would have bought it in an instant. I’m not usually turned on by red cars and the interior was chalk white which made it even less attractive, otherwise I might have been tempted. The early XJ-S is a high-performance 12-cylinder 5.7 liter two-door sedan with a back seat fit only for children and little people. That body style is just fantastic in my opinion. (grin) What prompted the purchase of the E-type in 2001 was spotting a Jaguar XJ-S sitting on a local car lot here in Redding. I intend to keep my current C-5 until the end of time. The Nissan I had for over seven years, and the first C-5 Corvette I had for five years before it got totaled (rear ended by a truck). The first Porsche I owned I kept for nearly seven years. I kept the ’63 Volvo I bought in 1969 for over 12 years. The car weighed nearly 5,000 pounds and had more speed in it but I started worrying about a tire blowing out or a deer jumping in front of me – I was in nowhere Montana – and I backed off.

A totally killer 130-mile-per-hour sedan! Yes, I pushed it to that speed. I’ve owned a lot of cars including a 1994 Jaguar Vanden Plas 4 liter and, although it wasn’t a sports car, it drove like one. Since buying the Jaguar I’ve also owned a 944 Porsche, a Jaguar XJ-S, a couple of MG Midgets, and am currently on my second C-5 Corvette. Other sports cars I’ve owned include a 1964 Volvo P1800s, a Porsche 924, a Datsun 280zx, a Nissan 300zxt (turbo), a 1971 Volvo 1800e, and, of course now the Jaguar E-type. Maybe it has something to do with the square dance song I remember my dad singing called “Little Red Sports Car.” Who knows where some of those preferences come from. For some reason, small, responsive cars appeal to me.

I’ve loved and owned sports cars ever since I bought my first Volvo P1800s in 1969. Instead of being granted life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, minority groups such as African-Americans, Native-Americans, and Latino-Americans must work through prejudicial roadblocks and social repression to maybe, one day, possibly earn these gifts.(The saga of buying a 1968 E-type 2+2 on ebay) "Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl" by Harriet Jacobs perpetuates the idea that senseless violence, racial oppression, and double jeopardy gender inferiority complexes are all forms of American life that are insignificant to one group of Americans (whites) and detrimental to one group of Americans (blacks/minorities). Linda learns that if she can’t make her own life better, bettering the lives of her loved ones would be good enough.

However, she does pursue happiness through sacrificing her personal gain for the gain of family, expressing her own sexual freedom, and learning how to remain strong despite adversity. The decades of abuse that Linda withstands and the fact that she is never inferably reunited with her family by in the novel’s end both prohibit Linda from truly being happy.
