1955 Jaguar XK140 Roadster … Sold
Have you ever dreamt of owning a legendary, Le Mans conquering Jaguar XK Roadster, but didn’t fancy shelling out the £150 grand these iconic, rare cars normally command if in top condition? If so, we just might have the solution. At less than half that figure is our XK140 Roadster, of which only 73 genuine examples were ever built, however, this XK140 chassis originally carried a Fixed Head Coupe body but has been skilfully re-engineerd into an Open Two Seater Roadster, which is apparently similar to how the Jaguar factory actually produced the early XK120 DHC’s by cutting down FHC body shells. As you can tell from the accompanying pictures, it has been totally restored to the last nut and bolt with overall fit and finish quite outstanding. It is an original RHD Home Market car and reputedly covered only 40,000 miles from new with a mere ten ‘shake down’ miles since the rebuild.
