The Appeal

The Jaguar Mk2 is one of the most revered British saloons of the 1960s, blending elegant, compact proportions with genuine sporting intent. The 2.4-litre variant, paired here with a four-speed manual gearbox, offers the model's celebrated character in a lighter, more nimble package, a combination that has long held particular appeal among enthusiasts.

This 1962 example has been garaged since 1989 and is presented as a restoration project with a significant amount of groundwork already completed. The bodywork has been restored and painted, and the chrome and interior woodwork have received attention. Work remains; however, the car is a non-runner, currently on SORN, and will require further mechanical and interior refurbishment to bring it back to the road. With no history of total loss or major structural issues, this Mk2 represents a solid basis for completion.
