Auction description:
Lot Number 196
1955 Jaguar XK 140 SE Roadster
€80,000 - €100,000
Offered without reserve
RM | Sotheby's - THE SÁRAGGA COLLECTION 20 - 21 SEPTEMBER 2019
Chassis No. A 810868

Desirable SE variant
Attractive blue-over-red colour scheme

Differentiated from its C-Type-head-equipped brethren by the ‘A’ in its chassis number, this Jaguar XK 140 SE boasts the crankshaft dampener, wire wheels, dual exhaust, twin fog lamps, and windshield washers as delivered by the factory in the SE (or ‘M’ for North American specification) package. Presently, it sports an attractive blue-over-red colour scheme from an older restoration and is an ideal driver-quality car.

Undoubtedly the most desirable body style for the XK 140, this is a charming Jaguar that has everything one could want in a British sports car—sophistication, performance, and timeless style.
