The roots of the luxuriously equipped and potent MKIX Jaguar lay in the MKVII that had been launched at the 1950 London Motorshow. The MKVIII of 1956 brought added opulence to the interior and a few detail changes to the outward appearance (most noticeably the move to a curved single-piece windscreen), while the MKIX delivered a 3. 8-litre 220bhp version of Jaguar's all-conquering DOHC XK engine, servo-assisted disc brakes all-round and recirculating ball steering. Motor magazine's test of an automatic example returned a 0-60mph time of 11. 3 seconds and top speed of 114. 4mph - no mean figures for a 16ft-plus Saloon weighing in at 4, 000 lbs.
