The Appeal
The Jaguar Mark 2 is near-synonymous with the 1960s, thanks to its attractive styling, palatial cabin and often rather impressive performance. These cars remain hugely popular among classic car enthusiasts for their combination of style, character and rewarding driving experience, and in their era were often the saloon of choice for the well-to-do bank manager, executive or statesman. Is it any wonder they're still so aspirational?
This 1968 example, finished in a very attractive Wedgewood Blue, benefited from a restoration ten to fifteen years ago and has since been carefully maintained. The current owner has invested over £14,000 in improvements and upkeep during two years of ownership, tackling significant mechanical work as well as fitting power-assisted steering through a well-regarded Jaguar specialist. The vendor proudly notes that this provides a marked improvement in drivability without compromising the traditional Jaguar feel. The car was recently serviced and holds a valid MOT until January 2027.image.png1.38 MB
