1967 Jaguar 420 Walk Around and Test Drive

[@toeroterdoom]

Wow, what a beautiful Jag! My dad had a 1967 420 automatic in the same color scheme. Good to see this wonderful car is preserved so well!

[@JonDingle]

That is a beautiful example of a fine Jaguar. I just wish could bring it back to the UK, I am lifelong Jaguar fan and owner.

Lovely. DH reg. originally registered in the town of Walsall, Staffordshire, England. "E" suffix plates issued between 1st January to 31st July 1967 in the UK.

Very clean car, incredible how well it's held up for being used so little. Runs like a Swiss watch. British gangsters had an affinity for these six-cylinder Jags because of their powerful engines, nice interiors (wool, leather and burled wood) and their ability to carry five or six people with little effort. This was a statement car in general because it was not cheap to buy nor maintain (still isn't) and an immediate reflection of the owner's discerningly good taste.

You Said " Paint Chip on passanger Side " But its a Right hand drive So Technically its driver side,Anyway it is a pretty Thing Great Looking Jag And Thank you For Showing this Special Car.

I noticed your voice has the distinctive Colorado accent. Am I right in thinking you are in the southern part of Colorado between Trinidad and Walsenburg?

[@biroldjoshan3745]

I have just brought the same car in opalescent silver blue...manual /od

[@UberLummox]

So luck to have a manual! Just bought one as well but it was converted from an auto. Good enough!!!

[@biroldjoshan3745]

Yes we are very lucky to have a 420 ...especially manual versión s , a rare car in the day and very rare today .what condition is yours in ?

[@UberLummox]

@@biroldjoshan3745 It's in great shape. A Southern car with zero rust, recently replaced wire wheels & interior. Basically new everything front to back but with a novice type paint job. The HVAC, ignition system, & fuel systems are all of modern parts for a more reliable Jag. Paint is a back yard special, but I don't care, it's a driver! How about yours?

[@biroldjoshan3745]

Hi , sorry for late reply , yours sounds really good , mine has had new suspensión all round , high toque starter motor , Electronic ignition, sports coil, the wood dash restored , drivers seat needs little attention , user friendly clutch (light) to use , and yes the body needs a little work but very tidy still . Keep up the good work and enjoy your car

[@UberLummox]

@@biroldjoshan3745 Sounds great! Thanks. You too ~

[@seangelarden9543]

BMW 2002s have a distinct smell so I know what he's talking about

[@MatejTriska-p4d]

Have one that needs restored will sell

[@seriousros7280]

Nobody will ever persuade me that some generic electric boredom machine is superior to the mighty 420G

[@michaelarchangel1163]

420 G's were a bit too big for British rural areas. I much prefer the dimensions of this 420, but the quality you spoke of still applies. Best regards from Wales.

JAG-YOU-ARE it’s not a Jagwar .

No sun roof - not interested.
