For many the definitive Jaguar sports saloon, the Mk.
II was introduced in October, 1959.
A peerless blend of elegance and muscularity, its sleek lines clothed an evolution of the Coventry marque's first monocoque design.
Powered by derivatives of the same XK DOHC straight-six engine that had swept Jaguar to five Le Mans victories, the Mk.
II was quick to dominate contemporary saloon car racing.
Synonymous with the swinging ’60s and the hit television series Inspector Morse , the Jaguar Mk.
II has been used as a vehicle to transport everyone from dignitaries and politicians to bank robbers and the criminal select.
When released, traditional Jaguar buyers had no need to feel alienated by the new offering from Coventry as the interior was up to their usual standards with leather and walnut being the order of the day.
With 112bhp available, the 2.4 was not overly burdened with pace so, importantly, coupled with a manual gearbox it would be the more frugal of the range.
