Exterior colour White
JAGUAR XK 120 OTS (1953)

The vehicle proposed today, a splendid roadster (officially called an Open Two Seater) with left-hand drive, was sold in the United States and probably has a sporting period in its American past: in fact it still has a front bar for rapid lifting, which leads us to think it was used for racing.

The vehicle was restored a few years ago and presents itself very well with the characteristic disc wheels and rear wheel spats typical of the first XKs built. The vehicles were often ordered with wire wheels, or the wheels were subsequently modified, thus losing the wheel covers which give the XK 120 the appearance of a large 1930s custom-built car.

Used by the owner for a series of events and regularity rallies, the XK 120 offered today is a perfectly efficient vehicle ready to give its new owner great satisfaction in terms of the driving experience as well as the admirable overall appearance.

The vehicle is in excellent mechanical condition but, for safety reasons, we advise the purchaser to have it checked over and to replace the fluids, filters and perishable elements.
