SUMMARY
Recently fastidiously recommissioned and we can't recall having seen a better one.
DESCRIPTION
- Introduced in October 1967, the V8-250 was a minor facelift of the long-running 2.5 V8 saloon
- Differences were minor; slimline bumpers and over-riders, negative-earth electrics, an alternator instead of a dynamo, padded door cappings, reclinable split-bench front seats and a heated rear window
- This example is delightfully finished in Willow Green with its original Biscuit leather interior
- Automatic gearbox and factory power-assisted steering
- Registered and supplied by Glovers of Harrogate in 1968 to Mrs Phyllis Lockwood of Harrogate
- Purchased by its third owner in 1976. Mothballed in dry storage around 1980
- Service entries at 830, 9,276, 12,017, 15,461, 22,314, 24,006, 25,082, 30,210, 34,690, 37,381, 42,303, 46,095 miles
- Recently painstakingly recommissioned by a much-respected client of ours whose work is simply world class. Full details in the condition report
- Original sills, original interior, stunning engine bay, and factory panel gaps. (probably a tad better)
- Supplied with the original green logbook, owner's manual, original service records, 'running-in' advice, period Sales Brochure, toolkit and two sets of keys
- 59,994 warranted miles. Fresh MOT until July 2022 (no advisories). Very sensibly guided
- It's a funny old world, a Mk 2 Jaguar in similar condition would be guided at least twice as much
