Car offered at:

Location: Los Angeles, California
Transmission: Manual
Condition: Mint
Exterior: Cotswold Blue
Interior: Black Leather

As one of only 3,276 examples built, this graceful, numbers-matching roadster is as rare as it is gorgeous. With just one Los Angeles owner since 1978, it still retains its early California plates and small pink title. Finished in Cotswold Blue with Black leather, it has covered less than a thousand miles since undergoing a full cosmetic and mechanical restoration. Consequently, it is in superb condition throughout.

Complete with a black Everflex soft top, side curtains and tool roll, it is ready to enjoy immediately. On the road, it cruises effortlessly with taut steering and firm, even braking, accompanied by that unmistakable XK exhaust note. An ideal candidate for either show or vintage rallying, this magnificent car would not be out of place in any collection, yet can be driven and enjoyed at will!

Price: $109,500
