Offered is a 1953 Jaguar XK120 Drop Head Coupe, an original California USA delivered car, with an enormous amount of history accompanying the car.
The car still has the original purchase contract from 1953 and the so-called California Blackplate!
The story of this beautiful English classic; this car was delivered new in 1953 to Mr. S. a pilot and witness this tasteful purchase a car enthusiast.
The car remained in the family until a few years ago.
The car was originally delivered in the color Suede green, but after a few years it was changed from color to the more popular British Racing Green by the first owner. The original upholstery and the original soft top are still present! As well as the hood cover and the tonneau cover. A very original looking classic car, with the right patina which gives this car its charm and character.
In the cockpit of the car, a number of non-original meters catch the eye, did we already tell you that the first owner was a pilot?
The car is technically in a good condition, the engine runs superbly and gives that specific Jaguar growl when accelerating. Civilized, but… still present.
Driving a British classic is a party in itself, what a wonderful car.
This car came to the Netherlands in 2020, the current owner has now decided to let someone else enjoy this car to have more time free for his other cars and hobbies.
As mentioned, an opportunity like this only arises a few times.
Take your chance and allow yourself to enjoy this icon of automotive history.
