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

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.
