Jaguar produced this model between 1959 and 1969.
Jaguar made its name by producing a series of successful eye-catching sports cars, the Jaguar XK120 (1948–54), Jaguar XK140 (1954–57), Jaguar XK150 (1957–61), and Jaguar E-Type (1961–75). Founder William Lyons' mantra of "value for money" was intended to be embedded across its full model range. Jaguar was a fan of a slogan and for many years its sales slogan was "Grace, Space, Pace”.
In 2008, Jaguar was sold to Tata Motors. Five years later, Tata Motors merged Jaguar with Land Rover to form Jaguar Land Rover the name the brand remains under to this day.
