The XK is finished in factory correct Jaguar Red and its interior is completed in gorgeous black leather. Additional equipment includes: rare original ignition keys, tool roll, spare jack, spare tire, and manuals.

Lot 41
1954 Jaguar XK120 SE Roadster
Chassis no. S675342 Engine no. F2694-8S
Sold for €115,000 (US$ 124,936) inc. premium

This left-hand drive Jaguar XK120 SE roadster was purchased by the current vendor at a US auction in August 2007, since when it has formed part of a private collection. Restored in 2005, the XK has won many concours events as a '99 point' car. The bright red paintwork presents well and both the shut lines and panel fit remain generally very good; brightwork is in good order and the wheels are shod with new tyres. The black leather interior trim is in very nice condition, as is the soft-top. Breathing via C-Type sand-cast SU carburettors, the engine retains matching cylinder block and head numbers and runs sweetly. It was upgraded with hardened valve seats to accommodate unleaded fuel during the rebuild.

Since acquisition, the Jaguar has been maintained by the Light Car Company of Faringdon, Oxfordshire and is currently registered and MoT'd in the UK. Recent works include a rear axle rebuild with new road springs, bushes, etc. Used recently on an Italian road rally, this beautiful XK120 SE roadster is running and driving beautifully, 'on the button' and ready to use.

Presumably the reference above to S675342 is a mistake and it is 675341 as the plate says.
