The Appeal
The early post-war years were an important time for Jaguar, during which it established world domination as a manufacturer of sports and luxury motor cars. The Jaguar Mk IV 1.5-litre offers the elegance and craftsmanship of its larger-engined siblings in a more accessible package. With its sweeping wings, traditional coachwork, and refined interior, the 1.5-litre model has a devoted following among enthusiasts who appreciate its understated charm and famously sweet-running Standard-derived 1.5-litre four-cylinder engine.
This 1947 example has been in the same family since 1992 and, although it has not been on the road for approximately 20 years, it presents well throughout and reportedly needs only light work before returning to use. It comes accompanied by the original instruction book.image.png4.95 MB

✓ The seller is registered as a private seller which means consumer rights stemming from EU consumer protection law do not come into effect. However, you are still covered by Car & Classic’s own Terms and Conditions..
✓ We request that a non-refundable fee be paid if you are the lucky winning bidder at auction or if your offer is accepted Please refer to our helpful FAQs and T&Cs for specific rates.

✓ VAT is included in the buyer's fee. VAT may or may not be included in the final bid or offer price, as specified in the listing.
✓ We want a smooth transaction just as much as you do and as such we run all UK-registered cars and motorbikes for sale on Car & Classic through an online HPI check to verify that they show no insurance database markers for damage or theft, and have no finance owing, allowing you to bid with confidence.
