Our Jaguar XK140:
Fully authentic car of rare beauty, with chassis, engine and gearbox numbers matching Jaguar’s Heritage Trust register.
This beautiful XK140SE LHD roadster is in wonderful condition, finished in a pale cream colour with red leather interior. This is an exceptional unit in the Special Equipment - Fixed Head version for the European market.

The interior is the most refined and exclusive that can be admired in a car of this level.
The massive use of burr wood on the dashboard and on the doors appears almost excessive, in its former glory. The unique design of the Smiths instruments seems to drown embedded in the rich thickness of the precious wood of the dashboard.
The two small ashtrays placed in the burr wood at the top of the dashboard are very refined: one for the driver and one for the passenger. Between the two ashtrays there is a tiny and elegant rectangular rear-view mirror.
The rear seats, of fine craftsmanship, complete the magnificence of this sophisticated living room on four wheels.
The engine has been preserved in excellent condition, with the type C cylinder head capable of developing a power of 210 HP. Close ratio 4-speed gearbox for sporty performance. Over the years, its owner has made frequent overhauls and adjustments, preserving the condition and efficiency of the car with care.
Original headlights with “J” emblem and Lucas fog lights supplied.
Jaguar chrome wire wheels.
For its beauty and sophistication, this car remains one of the most fascinating iconic models of the last century.

Spam prevention question (must be answered):
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?
