A Jaguar XK140 Drophead Coupe (DHC) with “spats’ covering the rear wheels is a rare treat! The lovely Pearl Grey exterior is complimented nicely by the wonderful deep red interior trim. This car has been restored in the past. This Jaguar XK140 was owned by the same person for 25 years and during this time underwent its restoration. A photo album details the whole restoration process together with extensive documentation. This car not only looks authentic it actually is just that. This XK140 has matching numbers and matching colours and has a Jaguar Heritage certificate. In 1954 this XK140 rolled out the factory in the Pearl Grey finish seen in the photo as are the deep red interior and French Grey hood and Tonneau. Just one look at the Jaguar XK140 is enough to convince you that this car has had a good life since being restored. The bodywork and chassis are totally rust-free and the wonderful body panels are correctly aligned. The paint finish and brightwork are in great condition. The deep red interior trim was given new carpets and leather seat covers during the restoration, so it should not come any surprise that it looks better than it when it originally left the factory in 1954. Of course a Jaguar would not be complete with its Burr wood dashboard and our car is no different. The hood is in good condition with an overall tight fit. The grey exterior with close cap wheels, the matching spats and deep red interior trim lend an air of quiet distinction to the XK 140. This may not be a car that jumps out when you drive into the street in happens to be parked in, but it is a car that you just have to keep admiring. The more you look, the more you will appreciate her beauty. This is a gorgeous British convertible for the driver who wants to make a subtile statement. The Jaguar XK140 has a 3.4 litre straight-six delivering 190Hp. The very strong engine delivers masses of torque from the big stroke volume. It has a 4-speed manual gearbox. This beautifully subdued Jaguar XK140 DHC with a fantastically subdued and utterly authentic appearance, is bound to seduce anyone at first sight!
