Description
This is an immaculate three year old Jaguar XK140 drophead coupé replica by Nostalgia Cars of Taunton.
Completed early 2022 it was certified and registered as a new vehicle on 1/ 3/ 2022. It's had one owner with only 796 miles on the clock. Its first MOT was passed in Feb 2026.
It is powered by a fully rebuilt 3. 6L straight 6 fuel injected Jaguar AJ6 engine which develops a stunning 206 BHP at 5500rpm. A 5 speed Getrag manual gearbox delivers the power to a Jaguar limited slip differential and on to the rear wheels. The wheels are Jaguar wire spoked with spinners.
The engine has an retro-fitted electronic fuel injection system fitted by Swallows Jaguar. This gives the car instant starting and problem-free motoring. It also has a built in electronic immobiliser.
Massive servo assisted disc brakes all round give incredible stopping power. No power steering gives the vehicle a traditional feel on the road.
The interior is fitted in cream leather with colour coordinated dark green piping. The instrument panel is walnut with cream instruments. Carpets in the passenger compartment and boot are also dark green.
The bodywork is constructed of composite panels finished in Metalic British Racing Green. The boot has a chrome luggage rack fitted.
The vehicle comes with a tonneau cover as well as 2 removable side screens and a removable full hood in black which takes a couple of minutes to fit.
It's had one service in 2023 which was an oil and filter change. The vehicle is currently in storage but is taxed and available to test drive. A full service will be given prior to sale.
Full build and certification paper work is available with the vehicle along with 2 sets of keys.
If you are looking for a beautiful looking classic which will give years of trouble free motoring at a sensible price then this is the vehicle for you. The most delightful thing about driving this XK140 is the way it turns heads. People stop and admire it. It has a wonderful 6-cylinder engine purr delivered through twin stainless steel exhausts and a roar when you put your foot down. The lack of power steering, the tradional sports car feel, the wind in your hair and the roar from the engine is the stuff of story books.
