DESCRIPTION
The XK150 "S' was introduced in 1958 and is widely regarded as the culmination of Jaguar's engineering achievements within the XK series. Indeed, the specification of the XK150 "S' undoubtedly paved the way for the E-Type that replaced it in 1961. The "S" boasted triple SU carburetors, a revised Harry Weslake-modified cylinder head, and a manual 4-speed overdrive transmission. Performance was seriously impressive for 1958 with an enhanced output of 250bhp and a top speed of 132 mph.
This, home market delivered, right-hand drive XK150 'S' 3.4 Fixed Head Coupe was first registered on 2nd January 1958 to a Mr. A. Thomas of Middlesex. Retaining its original registration of '111 EPH', this handsome Jaguar has been comprehensively restored by marque specialists Marina Garage of Bournemouth approximately fourteen years ago, but has stood the test of time well with no blemishes to speak of in the interior at all, and only one or two minor defects in the paintwork to warrant noting.
Included in the history file are photographic records detailing the body-off rebuild. Since completion of the restoration, '111 EPH' has covered only modest mileage in the hands of two keepers and remains in fine condition with excellent shut lines. The car has been well stored, often run up to temperature, and regularly maintained as are all the cars in the modest collection from which this is offered.
Our XK150 "S' is in fine fettle as you would expect from a pampered car. It is offered with the buff log book and some history of its restoration.
