Description:In Brief:
On the Surface: This 1958 Jaguar XK150 SE stands as a fantastic example of the classic Jaguar XK150 which has been fantastically restored to its former glory. Finished in the very smart Cotswold Blue which is complemented by a newly trimmed grey leather interior. Maintenance: The restoration journey of this XK150 was nothing short of a labour of love. Undertaking a full body-off restoration, every aspect of the car was carefully attended to, ensuring both authenticity and quality. From the replacement of worn parts to the application of its original Cotswold Blue paint, no detail was overlooked. Inside, a new grey interior was expertly trimmed. History: Purchased by the late husband of The Vendor in 2012, this XK150 was the embodiment of his passion for classic Jaguars. Acquired in need of a full restoration, it desperately needed his craftsmanship as a skilled bodyworker and mechanic. With its heritage authenticated by a Jaguar/Daimler Heritage Trust certificate, tracing its lineage back to its original owner, Mr. William Slocombe of Wembley, this XK150 carries with it a rich history. The Model: As the final iteration of the iconic XK series, the Jaguar XK150 was introduced in 1957 and it brought a host of advancements, including a one-piece windscreen, a sleeker, more streamlined profile and a leather trimmed walnut dashboard. Under the bonnet, the 3.4-liter DOHC straight-6 XK engine delivers a quality performance producing 180 SAE BHP at 5,750 RPM. Sale Insight: The decision to part ways with this XK150 is a reluctant one for The Vendor, but it is driven by a desire to see the car find a new custodian who will continue to cherish and appreciate it as her late husband did. Its flawless restoration and storied history make it a rare find. As it seeks its next chapter, this XK150 invites a new owner to write their own tale behind the wheel of this iconic Jaguar. |
