    Having once been part of the Jim Ray collection, this XK 120 was comprehensively restored and is described to be in excellent condition throughout.

    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
