DESCRIPTION
The Mk II 3.8 Jaguar saloon was a handsome, powerful and good handling saloon built from 1959 to 1967. It was a quick car, even by today's standards, with 220bhp on tap, a 0-60mph time of 8.5 seconds and a top speed of 125mph. Therefore, when new, it was one of the fastest four door saloons on the planet and soon gained icon status from both its racing pedigree and its high profile use by both the police and of course the 'get away' drivers of the day!
This 3.8 Litre Mk II Jaguar was purchased by the previous registered keeper in 1974 and has not been used since a tree fell on his garage, damaging that building and denting the car's roof and buyers should note that a second-hand roof is offered with this vehicle. The current owner aquired this example in 2011 and has simply stored the car with a reputable firm ever since.
An automatic transmission model, '5686 TR' has had only seven owners from new and has been preserved in highly original condition. The car is complete and thus an excellent candidate for restoration. Sold strictly as viewed, it comes with its original buff logbook and Swansea V5.
