• Desirable manual/overdrive transmission • Extensive professional restoration 2020-2023 • All bills and a JDHT Certificate available • Features in the book 'Raw Spirit' by Iain Banks With the Mark 2's arrival in October 1959, the 3.8-litre version of Jaguar's dependable XK 'six' became available for the first time in the company's medium-sized saloon.

Used previously in the Mark IX saloon, this engine produced 220bhp, an output sufficient to propel the top-of-the-range Mark 2 to 125mph.

Transmission options were a four-speed manual (with or without overdrive) or Borg-Warner automatic gearbox, an improved all-synchromesh version of the former being specified from 1965.

Representing Jaguar's top-of-the-rage sports saloon in its ultimate 3.8-litre manual/overdrive specification, the superb example offered here boasts some of the modifications associated with the racing Mark 2 saloons prepared and entered by Guildford-based Jaguar dealer John Coombs in the early 1960s.
