Sellers description:
1959 Jaguar XK150S OTS Roadster
This well restored example features the 3.4 Liter S Motor that produces an outstanding 250bhp @ 5500 rpms, and it's mated with a 4-speed manual transmission with overdrive.

The details are as follows. VIN: S830566DN, decoding that number shows the S prefix that the vehicle is an early S Model, 830566 falls within the OTS Roadster VIN Range and the DN in the end indicated that it's an overdrive model.

The engine number is VS1080-9, VS indicates that it is a 3.4 Liter S Engine and the -9 is a 9:1 compression ratio.

This vehicle has absolutely no rust anywhere, body is straight and clean, paint is immaculate, and the chrome pieces look spectacular.

For a vehicle of this vintage, the engine and transmission are extremely strong, car pulls the entire RPM range, transmission shifts smoothly and effortlessly.

Recent work on the vehicle was done, including all weather stripping, paint, mechanics and interior. Service history on this vehicle is complete and accurate, everything looks to be matching as well and all original. We have a huge stack of service records, original tools, extra parts and accessories included with this vehicle.
