The Jaguar MkIV was Jaguar’s first car following World War II and was produced between 1945 and 1948.
Manufactured using a 120” separate chassis featuring beam front and live rear axle suspension on semi-elliptic springs and Girling mechanical brakes, it was offered with three engine variants; four-cylinder 1½ Litre, or six-cylinder 2½ / 3½ Litres coupled to a four-speed manual gearbox.
The stylish all-steel coachwork was available in four-door saloon or drophead coupe configurations featuring the kind of luxurious interior typically associated with the Jaguar.
In addition, it featured distinguishing chrome headlamps and a prominent chrome radiator grille.
Very few of these magnificent Jaguars were built for the right-hand markets as steel was being rationed for goods for export.

Paxman.
Originally finished in Birch Grey.
