A sought after 'Special Equipment' model fitted with the manual gearbox, this XK150 fixed-head coupé is one of only 1,205 right-hand drive models produced for the UK market. The car was originally supplied by Henlys of London to Mr Charles Reginald Purley of LEC Refrigeration fame (father of Formula 1 driver David Purley) and registered with his private number 'CRP 24'. By April 1959 the XK had passed to its second owner, a Mr Porretta of Coventry, and been reregistered as '652 EPO'. The recorded mileage had risen to only 32,300 miles when Mr Porretta sold the XK to its third custodian, a Mr Baungaard of Dorchester, in October 1988. While in Mr Baungaard's ownership a photographically documented 'last nut and bolt' sympathetic restoration (conserving the original leather interior) to correct factory specification was undertaken, and since its completion the XK has covered only 400 miles.
'652 EPO' is finished in Mist Grey with beautifully patinated original red leather interior and equipped with period spot lamps, a stainless steel dual exhaust system and wire wheels. A three-owner, matching-numbers XK150 that has covered only 33,059 miles from new, the car comes complete with a comprehensive history file, original buff logbook, Jaguar Heritage Certificate, sundry restoration invoices, current MoT and V5 registration document. Surely a unique opportunity to acquire this most desirable 'leaping cat'.
