Description:

This excellent, matching numbers, righthand drive XK150 fixedhead coupé has been the subject of a complete rebuild and up-grade. Works carried out included replacing the brake master cylinder, brake servo and fitting Cooper Craft callipers and discs, new steering rack, rear springs, re-wired, new alternator, instrument overhaul and other electrical items replaced. The car has been up-graded with electric power steering, 72 spoke wheels, spin-off oil filter, electronic 123 ignition, alloy header tank, Kenlowe fan, stainless steel exhaust, Koni shock absorbers and new clutch, master and slave cylinders. It has also recently been re-painted in gunmetal grey then fitted with a new windscreen and trims, new rubbers and seals, many new chrome items and a new mascot. The red interior has been refurbished and a new wooden steering wheel fitted. This XK150 is supplied with a V5C registration document, an MoT test certificate which expires in March 2016, a file with invoices for the work carried out and a Jaguar Heritage certificate. These XK150's are very usable and their time is approaching, it will be the prudent investor that has one or two of these tucked away.

Auction description:
ESTIMATE £65,000-£75,000
Auction 2016 Spring Classics
Lot Number 115
Reg. Number UK Registered
Chassis Number S825235DN
Year 1960
Make Jaguar
Model XK150

First registered on the 19th May 1960, this fully matching numbers, manual/overdrive car was dispatched from new to the dealer Ritchies in Glasgow.

From the 1980s to the present day the car has enjoyed a huge amount of restoration and upgrade work, supported by a thick file of invoices totalling £85,000. Between 2013 and 2014 alone £25,000 was spent on upgrade work, which included a repaint in 2013.

Furthermore the car has benefitted from a number of sensible upgrades to improve performance and usability, such as electric power steering, the fitting of a Kenlowe fan, a stainless exhaust system, Koni shock absorbers with new springs, Cooper Craft brakes, and 72 spoke wire wheels.

This fabulous car is offered with a Jaguar Heritage certificate (number 35709) and original Jaguar Operating, Maintenance & Service Handbook, in additional to a substantial history file containing many invoices, receipts and MoT certificates. The Jaguar was last serviced at 41,487 miles, and currently stands at 44,405 miles.

Finished in a very handsome shade of Gunmetal Grey with a contrasting Wine Red interior, and suppplied with a fresh MoT, this is a great opportunity to own one of the best sorted XK150s in the country.
