This Jaguar XK140 is an FHC (Fixed Head Coupe) & SE (Special Equipment) version. This “SE” specification is rare and sought after. The spoke rims, the fog lights, a double exhaust and the mythical C-type cylinder head bring its power to 213 hp, making it a more powerful and swift car.

With its British Racing Green livery and red leather interior, this coupe is in superb overall condition. Restored from A to Z in 2005 (complete file), the car has since been regularly maintained by a Jaguar specialist.

Equipped with a 5-speed gearbox (original gearbox available), electric power steering and more powerful brakes - Copper Craft - the car is ideal for regular use.
