This 1950 Jaguar MKV is a rare, right-hand drive model with a 3.5-liter engine, believed to be restored in the mid-1990s, and has been owned by only three people. It features a two-tone Seafrost and Black finish, tan leather interior, and comes with an original toolkit and supporting paperwork, including a Classic Cars magazine feature.

The car is described as having been restored in the mid-1990s, including paintwork and interior. It has been well-maintained, with only around 800 miles covered since 2006.

However, the exact current condition is not detailed, so I'm assuming it is in good condition.
