Description

Stunning Jaguar 340, the final and most refined evolution of the legendary MK II series. This particular example is far more than a "garage queen" to be kept under a cover; it is an extraordinary vehicle professionally optimized to be driven and enjoyed daily in modern traffic.

Presented in excellent overall condition, this 340 has undergone a series of targeted mechanical upgrades that drastically improve safety, comfort, and driving dynamics—all while meticulously preserving the iconic aesthetics and "soul" of the Coventry marque.

Mechanical Upgrades for Maximum Reliability

Designed to eliminate the typical anxieties of vintage ownership, this Jaguar features:

Electronic Ignition: For instantaneous starts and a smooth, consistent idle.
Advanced Thermal Management: Equipped with a supplementary oil cooler and an automatic electric fan (with a manual override switch in the cabin) to ensure the engine remains cool in heavy traffic or summer heat.
Upgraded Braking: Dual calipers on the front brakes for modern, confident stopping power.
Redundant Fuel System: Dual fuel pumps to prevent any risk of fuel starvation or vapor lock.
Stainless Steel Exhaust: A lifetime system that offers a refined, deeper engine note without being intrusive.
Manual Choke Control: A manually operated starter for precise control during the engine’s warm-up phase.
Maintenance: The car has just been fully serviced and is "on the button," ready for its next journey.

Modern Comfort & Enhanced Dynamics

The driving experience has been transformed to meet contemporary standards without losing its classic character:

Rack and Pinion Power Steering: A fundamental upgrade providing precise, effortless, and communicative steering.
Air Conditioning: A rare and perfectly integrated luxury that makes the cabin a pleasant place to be in any season.
Lowered Suspension: Carefully tuned for a more planted feel, improved road holding, and a more purposeful stance.
Automatic Gearbox: Perfect for effortless cruising and navigating urban environments with ease.
Seamless Technology: A modernized stereo system with Bluetooth connectivity, elegantly integrated to respect the original dashboard aesthetics.
