Description
For sale here is a very well-maintained, partially restored in the early 2000s Jaguar XK 140 DHC SE with Matching Numbers from 1955, finished in beautiful Carmen Red with a black interior.
Introduced in 1954 as the successor to the Jaguar XK120, the XK140 is also equipped with the legendary 3.4-liter XK inline-six engine with a double overhead camshaft. The exterior changes that distinguish the XK140 from the XK120 include the larger front and rear bumpers with overriders, as well as the turn signals above the front bumper. The radiator grille retained the same size, but was changed to a one-piece casting.
The interior was also designed to provide greater comfort for taller drivers by moving the engine, firewall, and dashboard 76 mm forward compared with the XK120, providing significantly more legroom.
This XK140 DHC SE “Special Equipment” was built at the Jaguar factory in Coventry in 1955 and partially restored in the early 2000s by its last owner at a specialist workshop. The SE variant is distinguished by its optionally available wire-spoke wheels, additional front lighting, dual exhaust system, and C-Type cylinder head. The C-Type cylinder head provides an additional 20 hp, increasing the 3.4-liter engine’s output from 190 hp to 210 hp.
As part of the restoration, the vehicle was also fitted with electric power steering from EZ Powersteering, significantly enhancing driving comfort. The vehicle also retains a mechanical tripmaster, which provides precise navigation and time-distance calculations during historic rallies.
Carefully maintained throughout, in very good technical condition, and always serviced and inspected by specialists, this XK140 will be handed over to its new owner with a fresh HU, a major service including a brake fluid change.
The sale is on behalf of a customer.
