This car was restored and converted to RHD in 1998

Seller's description:
Price £119,950
1956 Jaguar XK140
Mileage 803 Miles
Country United Kingdom
Region Durham

This particular example was subject to a full nut and bolt restoration to the highest of standards between 1998 and 1999 by Jaguar Specialists Twyford Moors Classic Cars Ltd, and still looks in great condition today. Painted in British Racing Green the quality is excellent with the interior beautifully trimmed in contrasting Biscuit hide bucket seats and the green mohair hood fits perfectly along with the walnut veneer dash complimented by the Moto Lita steering wheel. During the restoration the vehicle has had lots of enhancements fitted such as, bucket seats, spax shock absorbers, anti-roll bar, electronic ignition, spot lamps, upgraded alternator, disc brakes, seat belts, radio/ CD player, battery isolator, bonnet straps, the original 4-speed gearbox been upgraded to a 5 speed, and now shifts and drives well. The car sits on beautiful wire wheels painted green to match the car beautifully, and fitted with Avon Radial tyres.

It's a car which ticks all the right boxes : matching numbers, rare drophead version and a gorgeous colour combination. A test drive will only confirm the quality of this beautiful Jaguar.

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?
