1954 Jaguar XK120 SE 'Broadsport' Roadster

Goodwood Revival Collectors' Motor Cars and Automobilia

9 September 2023, 13:30 BST

Chichester, Goodwood

£100,000 - £120,000

Registration no. 171 XVM

Chassis no. S 675748

Engine no. F 3313-8S

• Delivered new to the USA

• Broadsport alloy body

• Converted from left- to right-hand drive

• Extensively upgraded in every respect

• Purchased from Guy Broad in 2019

This stunning Jaguar XK120 SE Roadster was sold new via Jaguar's West Coast, USA distributor Charles Hornburg in Los Angeles, California. Manufactured on 9th June 1954, the car was originally finished in cream with red interior and a black hood. Previous owners in the USA were Russ Farmer of San Francisco (early 1980s); Luther Slape of California; and Chip Starr of Portland, Oregon. In 2012 the Jaguar was purchased by Tony Ditheridge of Hawker Restorations fame and imported into the UK. The XK carried an extraordinarily ugly body at the time of purchase, making it look like a 1930s hotrod (see photographs).

The car was next owned by Simon Clinton, who had the Broadsport alloy body made and commissioned the rebuild. In the course of rebuilding the car Guy Broad also incorporated numerous performance-enhancing upgrades. The specification list runs to three A4 pages and thus is far too lengthy to reproduce here. Suffice to say that highlights include the following: original 3.4-litre engine rebuilt to full C-Type specifications with upgraded internals; lightened steel flywheel with 4.2 E-Type 9.5" diaphragm clutch; Broadsport MT75 Cosworth five-speed gearbox with alloy case; latest specification Salisbury 4HA rear axle with 3.54:1 final drive ratio; AVO adjustable suspension dampers front and rear; uprated front anti-roll bar; Broadsport fast road/rally front disc brake conversion using three-piston Girling callipers; C-Type specification 12" rear drum brakes; restored steering box; Broadsport fast road/rally high-flow aluminium radiator with Spal electric fan; Bell larger bore stainless steel exhaust system; WOSP alternator electrics; 123 adjustable distributor; high output started motor; correct cloth-wrapped wiring loom; Facet Red Top fuel pump; Lucas 576 spot lamps and correct Lucas Pf770 headlamps with bespoke 55/60W halogen bulbs; and 72-spoke wire wheels with special offset, chrome rims, and stainless steel spokes.

Our vendor bought the XK120 from Guy Broad in 2019 and used it in Florida for a few years. He has now reimported it into the UK to be sold. New Blockley tyres were fitted in October 2020. The car comes with a large history file, a Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate, and a UK V5C. It is hard to imagine that there is anything more, other than an engine transplant, that could possibly be done to improve this most impressive car, which is worthy of the closest inspection. The original gearbox and drum brakes are included in the sale.

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?
