Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1955 Jaguar XK140 Drophead Coupe, owned for 24 years, features a Cotswold Blue repaint, Biscuit leather interior, and a rebuilt 3.4-liter inline-six with a four-speed manual transmission. Although refurbished in the 2000s, the odometer and fuel gauge are inoperative, and true mileage is unknown, potentially affecting its value.

Condition
7
The car underwent a refurbishment that was completed in 2008, including rust repair, a repaint, interior retrimming, and mechanical rebuilds. While the refurbishment suggests a solid condition, the presence of an inoperative odometer and fuel gauge, along with the seller's statement that the odometer reading is inaccurate, indicates some existing issues. The overall description points to a car in 'Very Good' condition, with some wear but no major damage.
