Description

The Jaguar Mk. II was a medium-sized saloon built from 1959 to 1967 as a successor to the 2.4 and 3.4 litre models admired for its elegance and refinement. Introduced as the successor to the Mk. I, it featured smoother styling, improved visibility with slimmer pillars, and a more luxurious interior with rich wood and leather trim. Powered by a 2.4 litre straight-six engine, it offered respectable performance for its era, though less powerful than the larger 3.4 and 3.8 variants. Today, it remains a cherished icon of Jaguar's 1960s craftsmanship.

This delightful example has carefully restored around a decade ago, and still presents well, having covered scarcely any miles since. Showing a mileage of 6,594, our vendor has kept it dry-stored and well-maintained throughout his ownership. The Old English White paintwork presents well, with only some minor micro blistering, while the interior is, in his words, in lovely condition - the carpets, wood, headlining and chrome are all fabulous. With an extensive history file stretching back to 1982 when he purchased it, the original bill of sale is included, this car has certainly led a storied life. Mk. IIs are often noted for their involvements in police chases in period, however when he purchased the car in 1982 our vendor was immediately flagged down by the police, who found around £500 hidden under the backseat, and impounded the car as it had previously been involved in a robbery! Our innocent vendor was soon able to retrieve his Jaguar and has cared for it ever since.

Despite showing seven former keepers since 1982, our vendor informs us that the car has been in his care for that duration; however, in 2005 he was forced to sell it to a close friend (though he continued to keep it in his care) before he bought it back in 2019. Now seeking funds to build his dream house, he needs to sell his beloved Jaguar once again. Consigned by Charlie McCreery
