    Description

    An incredibly rare opportunity: just over 1,000 XK140 Fixed Head Coupes were ever built, with only a few hundred believed to survive today. This example retains its matching numbers engine and has a genuine competition history, having started life as a competition car before being modified for road use.

    Matching numbers engine

    Genuine competition history, later modified to be road ready

    Registered and driven in Tasmania as recently as 2015; never registered in NZ

    Resprayed in its original colour

    Unknown kms

    This is a project car being sold as is, currently pulled apart for restoration. Key items to be aware of:

    No gearbox included. A gearbox from a Series 2 Jaguar was trialled but did not fit and is included in the sale for parts/reference; sourcing a correct gearbox will be the buyer's responsibility and may be difficult given the car's rarity

    No windscreen; however, this is a flat piece of glass and can be custom made

    No interior trim

    Almost all other parts are included with the sale

    This vehicle is sold on behalf of the owner via MV Consignment, as is, with no further work carried out prior to sale. Given the scope of this project, we'd encourage serious buyers to view the car in person. Buyers are welcome to contact our mechanic with any questions, just let us know and we'll forward his details.

    Located in Taipa. Get in touch to arrange a viewing.

    Important information for buyers

    A Consumer Information Notice is available for this vehicle. Ask us and we'll provide it before you commit to buy. It sets out the vehicle's odometer reading, year of manufacture and first registration, import status, and whether there is money owing on it.

    • Most vehicles here are sold on behalf of their owner. Specifications, history and condition are as supplied to us. We pass on what we're told and check what we reasonably can, but we can't independently verify every detail.
    • Check it yourself.We encourage every buyer to inspect the vehicle, arrange an independent pre-purchase inspection, and get their own vehicle history and security-interest report. We'll help you arrange any of those.
    • Prices are in New Zealand dollars and, unless stated otherwise, exclude on-road costs and delivery. A listing is an invitation to enquire, not an offer — availability and price can change. See our Terms and Refunds & Cancellations.
