A second car, 670948, appeared in 2014, sold to a Jag enthusiast in Germany. Can somebody solve that mystery ?

Classified ad price: £148,000 seller vandpcars, Northampton, UK, 0 miles stated
1950 Jaguar XK120 OTS Alloy Bodied Race Car
Registration Number: 814YUK
Delivery miles since an open Cheque book builf by XK motorsport. This car cost a small fortune to build & was done to the highest specifications.
The high compression engine is bored out to 3.6 Litres & sports triple Webber twin choke side draught carbutettors. The Cylinder head is gas flowed & ignition fully mapped resulting in an impressive 340 BHP output. This combined with the lightwiegh custom aluminium body makes for a very very rapid machine indeed.
Further features include: full retrim in leather with bucket syle seats; stainless steel big bore exhaust; uprated gearbox with competition clutch; limited slip differential; uprated suspension and brakes; new wheels and tyres. The car is OK for taller drivers due to the bucket style seats & new pedal arrangement.
Resplendent in brand new black paintwork, burgundy hides & carpets complete the look. The car started life as a LHD example & was convertedt to ~RHD during the build process. It is road registered & UK road legal. The car is equipped with all the usual bits such as a roll hoop, aluminium radiator, bonnet strap, aluminium quick fill fuel cap & twin aero screens. The boot still has plenty of space for travel luggage.
Not one for the faint of heart, this car is ready for seriously fast road use where (& probably where not) permitted but will be equally if not more at home on a race track.

If the 3.8 E-type, triple-carb lump made about 180/190bhp DIN, this claim of 340bhp is interesting.
