What can we say about this beautiful car.
The final development of the Mk2, the 240/340 range was introduced in September 1967 with the 240 still available until early 1969
Differences from the Mk2 were mainly cosmetic with reshaped rear bodywork, slimmer bumpers and Ambla upholstery
The 240 engine now had a straight-port cylinder head, twin HS6 SU carburettors and offered 133bhp at 5,500rpm and 100mph
Having been enjoyed by four previous keepers, this lovely example was purchased by its owner in 2012 prior to commencing a sympathetic cosmetic restoration.
Subject to a bare metal respray in its original Jaguar Beige (2014) and all brightwork re-chromed by A.C.F Howell (2014)
Re-veneered interior Walnut trim, refurbished original seats, new carpets, door cards etc. from Aldridge Trimming. All looking just as good as they did in 2014. We cannot express how much time and effort has been spent on the car, The interior is beautiful and at this value, surly has to be one of the best.
Overdrive is working perfectly.
A full walk around video of the car will be available on our Facebook page, along with over 50 5* reviews.
We have driven the car for 100 miles or so and it is absolutely superb, So smooth and comfortable, a very usable classic. Runs beautifully.
Correct Dunlop cross-ply tyres on new wire wheels (refurbished originals included), new radiator and heater box
45,500 miles supported by extensive documentation including a photographic record of restoration, receipts/invoices for all work done, 21 MOTs from 1978, nine tax discs from 1986 and its Jaguar Heritage Certificate
Always garaged, driven only in dry/warm conditions and has been serviced and MOT'd each year. Current MOT valid until August 2023, happy to include a fresh one for the new keeper.
We are very sad to have to list the MK2, We would really like to have it as part of our own collection. Unfortunately the timing just isn’t right for another classic.
