Jaguar XK 140 Drophead Coupé with 4-speed manual gearbox and overdrive
Professionally restored
Showing 49,942 miles
Dutch registration documents with E705 document
An iconic British convertible from the 1950s

The Jaguar XK 140 Drophead Coupé is widely regarded as one of the finest British sports cars of the 1950s. Combining elegant styling, refined craftsmanship and the legendary 3.4-litre XK inline-six engine, it offers a unique blend of performance and grand touring comfort. Paired with its 4-speed manual gearbox and overdrive, the XK 140 delivers an authentic and enjoyable driving experience, perfectly suited to long-distance touring.

This example was first registered on 30 June 1957 and has benefited from a professional restoration. It presents beautifully, featuring a well-kept interior, an upgraded cloth convertible top replacing the original vinyl material, and carpets in very good condition. With a displayed mileage of 49,942 miles, this Jaguar represents an attractive opportunity for enthusiasts of authentic British classics. The car is supplied with Dutch registration documents, an E705 document, and a Belgian Car-Pass, providing a transparent ownership history. As is common with a classic car of this age, a number of technical improvements are recommended. These are clearly detailed in the accompanying inspection report.

Xavier's quote:
"The XK 140 is one of the most beautiful Jaguars ever built. The combination of the legendary XK engine, overdrive and the elegant Drophead Coupé body makes it a dream car for every enthusiast of classic British motoring."

Our Oldtimerfarm inspection team has prepared a detailed inspection report for this vehicle.
