I have known this car since the late 1960s and it has a huge history which we will record in Jaguar Magazine (jaguarmagazine.com). The truth about it is often confused because of tall stories, but it is a stunning XK150S FHC 3.8S. Since the early 1990s it has gone from Australian to England, returned to Perth Australia, went to Tasmania - minus its D-Type wheels (XKD532) which remained in Perth, then went to New Zealand. It returned to Australia (Melbourne where it was sold new) in late 2018 thanks to Jordan Roddy. He also relocated its original D-Type wheels and refitted them to the famous car. It is very low mileage, has always been pampered, and was used by Mary Lyons (Sir William's youngest daughter) on her honeymoon. It was sold new to one of the most famous collectors in Australia then - Bill Leech.
