Exterior
The body has been extensively restored to concours standard in 2016/17 by XK Classics London Limited.
Painted in the original Jaguar colour of Carmen Red. The paintwork offers a flawless uniform finish which is a testament to the quality of workmanship carried out 8 years ago.
Factory panel fit, shut lines, gaps, and reassuring thud as you close the doors. The underside is equally as impressive as the top, painted in body colour, every component has been meticulously restored and presents to show standards.
All external bright work is either original or replated and looks stunning throughout. Original Lucas lighting all around with the exception of better performing halogen headlights. A new Triplex laminated correct tint windscreen has been fitted, side windows are all original Triplex fitment including the rear opening quarter windows and all unmarked... Wonderful

On the road she cannot fail to impress and what a joy to drive. The original Moss manual gearbox selects with ease, the clutch is light in operation, gear changes slick and precise and starts hot or cold without issue. The 3.8 Series crisp exhaust note is magical through the stainless horned tailpipes.
