One of the rarest Jaguars of all, the XKSS was a spin-off from the D-Type racing program.
To satisfy FIA regulations, the D-Type had been built in numbers greatly exceeding the demand for such a specialised piece of racing equipment, and conversion to road trim was viewed as the best way of clearing unsold stocks, hence the XKSS.
Modifications to make the D-Type acceptable for road use included installing a seat and door on the passenger side, fitting a full-width windscreen and shielding the side-exit exhaust system.
A mohair hood and detachable side screens provided weather protection and, as twin fuel tanks and the spare wheel occupied the boot space, a luggage rack was provided.
The 3.4 litre XK engine remained pretty much to racing specification, producing around 250bhp, which made for electrifying performance in a car weighing just 18cwt.
