Jaguar MKII 3.8 1960 for sale

Biarritz Sports And Classic Cars (BSCC) is pleased to present this 1960 Jaguar MK2 3.8. Introduced in 1959, the Jaguar MK2 marked a significant evolution from the MK1, with enlarged glass surfaces, a wider rear track, and disc brakes on all four wheels. The 3.8-liter version, produced in 30,141 units until 1967, was the most powerful in the range, appreciated by both law enforcement and sports driving enthusiasts. Under the hood, we find the XK inline six-cylinder engine with a displacement of 3,781 cm³, producing 220 horsepower at 5,500 rpm and a torque of 326 Nm at 3,000 rpm. Paired with a 4-speed manual transmission, this engine allowed for acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 8.8 seconds and a top speed of 210 km/h. The interior, true to British tradition, offers a refined atmosphere with walnut wood and leather seats. The driving position, readable instruments, and quality of materials testify to the care dedicated to the design of this sedan. This MKII has undergone significant restoration work between 2019 and 2024. The engine has been replaced, the upholstery and wood have been restored, new wheels have been fitted, and some modernizations have been made: GPS speedometer GpsX, EZPowerSteering power steering, an electric sunroof, programmable electronic ignition. In total, over 35,000 Euros have been invested. We have an important dossier of invoices and an appraisal. The older paint is in very good condition despite some signs of age. Behind the wheel, you first settle into a Jaguar, with leather and wood being omnipresent. It is comfort and luxury in the English style. Once the engine is started, it presents another story. The sound of the 6-cylinder immediately reminds you of the nobility of this engine, and the 220hp will allow you to cover miles with dynamism. This Jaguar is a great opportunity for classic vehicle enthusiasts. This vehicle can benefit from a warranty of up to 12 months and financing for up to 84 months.
