    Chassisnr 679111 is one of the very first XK120 in the Fixed Head Coupé version. It is the prettiest body of all XK variants, and this one comes in the very desirable colour combination of British Racing Green with Tan hide. Restored some years ago to concours condition, and little used since. It is in absolutely pristine condition. A matching nrs car, with the powerful 190 bhp engine with C-type head. The fruity sounding single sports exhaust makes the driving experience of this Jaguar even more rewarding. This car benefits from bespoke chrome 16" wheels to allow wider tires. We are sure this is one of the nicest XK120 on the market, and with a very competitive pricing for a concours condition car. Ready to enjoy this summer, and to participate in some historic car events ! A blue chip investment, and it will always be one of the greatest car designs ever made.

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
