1960 Jaguar
Manual with Overdrive
| Launched in 1959 at the Earls Court
Motor Show, London, the Jaguar Mk 2 became an overnight sensation with its
daring design, graceful curves and powerful XK derived six cylinder engines,
including the top of the range 3.8 litre that delivered 220bhp and a top
speed of 125mph. In addition to its supreme road going performance, the Jaguar Mk 2 was extremely competitive on the race track, scoring countless saloon car victories in the hands of greats such as Roy Salvadori and Graham Hill. This particular car, a 3.8 manual with overdrive, was built in July 1960. The original selling dealer was Whipples Ltd of Grantham. The car has remained in ownership within the North East of England since. It has covered a total of 46,288 miles, which would seem to be the correct mileage supported by a substantial history file and historic MOT certificates. The car is finished in Dark Blue, with Red Leather interior, and is in super condition. The car doesn’t appear to have ever undergone a “full restoration”, although the paintwork is likely to have been redone at some point in its lifetime. The interior would seem to be original and is in excellent order. Available to purchase directly from Jaguar Land Rover Classic, prepared in our own workshop and supplied with 12 months warranty and roadside assistance. |
