This is an unrestored example, in excellent condition mechanically, having had over £15k Spent recommissioning it and fitting sensible upgrades ensuring totally reliable motoring. These include, electronic ignition, High output alternator, Positive earth, new Aluminium petrol tank, new fuel pipes, rebuilt brakes, Aluminium radiator, new coolant pipes, new facet fuel pump, fully rebuilt 2" SU Carbs, not the standard smaller carbs, this give a big increase in torque and midrange. Re-trimmed cockpit roll, new tonneau cover, new radial tyres, electric fan, Stainless steel exhaust, heater drained and serviced and works perfectly. Bills for all work provided and work done by the leading XK Specialist.

This example drives beautifully, sounds wonderful and is structurally perfect. Paintwork is crazed and aged.

This car is ready to get in and drive anywhere and enjoy. It is not a perfect restored car. But it retains ALL of its original numbered parts, has the all important Heritage Certificate confirming this. This is U.K, registered car.
