JXG 300 left the factory in 1959 as a FHC, but was rebodied as a DHC after an accident in the 60s. At this point a crate S engine from Jaguar was fitted. So it is not a matching numbers car. It has a Getrag 5 speed gearbox which was rebuilt 4 years ago. The car presents well, with good paint, the interior is patinated, but in reasonable condition - a new owner might want to refresh the interior. The car has participated in several European rallies and performed well. It failed to finish one event when a clutch slave cylinder failed, this was replaced post the event. The current owner has replaced all suspension bushes and shocks. Upgraded the brakes to Coopercraft and rebuilt the Getrag 5 speed gearbox. The car starts and runs well with good oil pressure and steady temperature.
Classic Jaguar open top motoring
Great performance that copes well with modern traffic
Getrag gearbox is a joy to drive
