Car History
From The Jaguar XK120 in the Southern Hemisphere (2009) by Elmgreen & McGrath
UK, Australia
John Elmgreen (from Sydney, Australia) and Terry McGrath (Perth, Western Australia) have been extreme XK enthusiasts since the 1970s if not before. In 1985 they published "The Jaguar XK in Australia". It was described by Alan Clark (Jaguar expert, historian, Minister in the UK Thatcher government) as amongst Jaguar books "my own personal favourite" and by Jaguar automobilia expert Ian Cooling as a superb book standing "supreme in the Jaguar library as a testament to years of diligent research and scholarship". Terry McGrath is also co-author of the monumental "Forerunners of Jaguar in Australasia and SE Asia". The new book "The Jaguar XK120 in the Southern Hemisphere" is to be followed in due course by XK140 and XK150 volumes.

submitted to give people a better and correct idea what the light blue component of Duo blue looks like. The lighter of the blues which is really not blue but more a gunmetal colour described by Conolly as Blue-Grey.
This colour remained constant from MKV XK120 140 and 150
