The Appeal
One of history's most iconic 'Big Cats', the Jaguar XK150 was built for success at LeMans - but it proved to be a true motorway explorer through and through. As big express carriageways began peppering Europe, the XK150 became almost synonymous with a comfortable, leisurely cruise on the asphalt - and has since become a fixture of classic rallies worldwide.
This particular car, a 3.4L left-hand drive example, is a rare find and offers a unique opportunity for restoration enthusiasts. previously a fixture in a working museum, the car has spent some time in storage and remains largely original and untouched, making it an ideal candidate for a restoration project.
