This original, number matching, three owner from new, righthand drive Jaguar XK150SE fixedhead coupé is fitted with wire wheels and overdrive and is finished with the original paintwork of dark blue with the original matching light blue leather interior. Purchased by the vendor over twenty years ago with a view to carrying out a cosmetic restoration and add the Jaguar to his collection of classic cars, it was parked in his dry storage barn and has been there until very recently, when it was taken to a Jaguar and historic racing car specialist, K & N Classic Cars of Chichester, who checked the car throughout, made sure that the engine is running perfectly and obtained a new MoT test certificate. The car is supplied with a V5 registration document and some history. A fantastic opportunity to acquire a very usable classic Jaguar which just requires cosmetic restoration.
