In recent years, the owner has carried out conservative restorations that have mainly involved the repainting of the bodywork, the specific cleaning of the interior in original condition and a small mechanical overhaul.

More recently, has been undertaken an extensive service to ensure that this completely original XK120 continues to work as well as the day its first proprietary was delivered again: in particular in June 2018 the car underwent a complete overhaul and more recently in 2020 the tank was cleaned with the replacement of the petrol pump.

The specimen is presented without traces of rust and with chrome plating in good condition.

Luxury and comfort persist in the original interior of the car, of a refined red color that highlight a patina of experience, but are, however, completely original, both in leather saddlery and carpet. The condition of the carpet inside the trunk is also excellent as well as the black capote.

The car is equipped with double keys and "Operating, Maintenance and Service Handbook" and ASI certifications.

This XK120 today offers a very rare opportunity for any collector of the Coventry House, to get hold of an original specimen very well preserved and completely suitable to participate in the most important historical automotive events in the world, such as the Mille Miglia Storica, Le Mans Classic and the Nuvolari Grand Prix.

Model of high collectible value destined to keep its current quotation unchanged at least.
