The Appeal
Jaguar’s XK120 was developed for Le Mans success but its sleek, aerodynamic styling made it one of the most beautiful cars in the world. For those whose pockets are not quite deep enough to buy an original - or who just prefer more modern, more reliable running gear - then in the 1980s the Antique and Collectibles Automative company of Buffalo New York was on hand.
Alongside a range of other classically styled tribute cars they firm offered this, the dimensionally accurate XK120 ‘Tribute. Very few were built and they could, as here, be specified with beefy 200CI 3.3litre V6 power. Buyers got a rare and distinctive sports car with rot-resistant bodywork and dependable mechanicals.
This 1982 car is classically finished in sports car red with a black interior and has covered only 5,119 miles. It comes with a USA title and European import documentation, with all duties and VAT already paid.
These unusual cars rarely come to market so it is a chance to own a distinctive talking piece with the advantage of modern mechanics.

About Max Bids
The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.
Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.
Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
- If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
- If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
-
- Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
- We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.
| Bid Amount | Increment |
|---|---|
| €0 to €9,999 | €100.00 |
| €10,000 to €49,999 | €250.00 |
| €50,000 to €99,999 | €500.00 |
| €100,000 + | €1,000.00 |
Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.
You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
Pre-authorisation
We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
Problem with your bid
Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
