The fully detailed engine and engine bay house the incredible Jaguar 3781cc straight 6 engine, 265 bhp at 5500 rpm, 260 ft-lb torque at 4000 rpm with perfectly set up triple Weber DCOE 45 carburettors, by Butlin & Sons, Swadlincote, Derbyshire, and aluminium radiator with electric cooling fan.
On the road she cannot fail to impress and what a joy to drive. The 5-speed 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 full stainless steel exhaust system with horned tailpipes.
