1952 Jaguar XK120

The story

This very stylish XK-120 roadster is a strikingly well-preserved example with a gorgeous color combination, exuding the pure beauty and elegance that is most often associated with Jaguar's XK-120 models. This example has been driven a scant 18,197 miles since new, and brims with originality and patina throughout. Previously, the roadster was owned by 2 prominent Jaguar collectors who always took great care in preserving the car, while driving it sparingly and keeping it's originality intact. It is exceptionally clean throughout, with a tidy engine bay, clean undercarriage, and a striking Red interior. The car is delivered with it's Jaguar Daimler Heritage Certificate, and includes a jack, rear wing spats, and Lucas driving lamps that more than complement its unique styling, illustrating the very essence of classic British motoring. While the car stands in a fine show-driver level condition, it would make an excellent candidate to be taken to a complete show-level standard of perfection with a Classic Showcase restoration. This XK-120 is sure to provide its new owner with the pristine driving experience that Sir William Lyons had in mind over 60 years ago. — classicshowcase
