Description:

Lot Number 173 Registration 461 XVB Chassis Number 677267 Engine Number W8593-8 Estimate £68,000 - £76,000

The drophead we have here would have been the most expensive and rarest of the three derivatives at the time of delivery. With a properly fitting lined hood and wind-up windows it was also the far more practical option for use all year round. Extensively restored, this car has been fitted with some of the best concessions for modern motoring including electronic ignition, five-speed gearbox, front disc brakes, aluminium radiator and an alternator to mention just a few. Supplied with a V5C registration document together with a host of invoices. In a beautiful combination of Old English White with red leather trimmed by XK Specialists Suffolk and Turley, this left hand drive Jaguar is ready to be enjoyed by the most discerning of enthusiasts.
