Price reduction.

A totally correct and exceptionally original example of a rare UK market, RHD drophead, supplied new in 1955 by The Woodcote Motor Co, Epsom.

Sound condition, cosmetically mature and appealing, retaining original, mellowed tan leather interior, and of nicely understated specification with disc wheels and spats.

The paint shows its age in a quite charming way, the chrome work is very good to excellent, and the overall appearance is seductively appealing.

One owner from 1974 to 2015, and one since.

Just 6,000 odd miles covered during that fifty years! Recent work has included a new stainless exhaust, new clutch, complete re-wire and a good deal more besides.

Comes with a Jaguar heritage certificate confirming original specification and colour scheme, and a file of invoices from recent years showing parts expenditure, etc.

Driving very nicely, sounding great, and fun to whizz around in! Very few survive in such undisturbed condition! Part exchanges happily consider...
