Jaguar - XK 140 - 1955
Jaguar XK 140 Coupé from 1955.
Marvellous XK 140, fully restored, offering you the ultimate English-style elegance with a timeless design and an inline, 6-cylinder, 3. 4 L engine type, really supple and torquey, with 52,000 miles on the clock.
A very rare "Maroon Red" colour completes this model.
This Jaguar has hardly ever been driven by the current owner (only 1,000 since 2019) .
Main updates in 2019-2020:
- equipped with the overdrive option (rare) .
- bodywork stripped, sanded and buffed.
- stainless steel exhaust.
- back axle revision.
- brakes changed in 2020.
- new brake cables.
- installed improved cooling system in the radiator.
- chrome plating on bumpers redone.
- steering rack revised.
- carpet replaced.
- additional insulation installed in the doors and on the floor.
- no rust.
- 2 made-to-measure cases in a burgundy colour.
The bill for this work amounts to over €30,000.
The 6-cylinder engine, completely overhauled (new pistons) , works beautifully.
Same for the gearbox, which is very pleasant to use.
