This stunning left-hand drive 1952 XK120 fixed-head coupe was fully restored 10 years ago by Dutch specialists, Fokkens Engineering, at a cost of over 100,000 Euros (�90,000 with bills on file). Virtually every part of the car was rebuilt or renewed as necessary, including a full interior retrim in black leather with bucket seats and a Moto-Lita woodrim steering wheel and boss which makes for more leg room so drivers over 6ft tall will comfortably fit inside. To promote cooling it is fitted with a louvered bonnet with leather strap, uprated aluminium radiator and Kenlow-type fan. Other features include 2" sand cast carbs (costing 3,600 Euros) with Facet fuel pump and racing filler cap, dual circuit brakes and new Vredestein tyres all round. Superbly detailed throughout and said to drive beautifully, the car has only covered some 3,000 miles since completion. Although all duties have been paid, the car has not yet been UK registered and is still on its Dutch number plates. With an MOT until June 2012, this is a truly outstanding car that is worthy of the closest inspection.

The car was is in france since 2 years and owned by well known Mr Emile GARCIN and the car was superbely well stored in a quite, dry home during these times.... The car has only done 900 Miles in two years. Mr Emile GARCIN sold the car to Sergio in november 2012. And the car was in a really good state, quite brandnew. I never seen a car as well as this one!!!
Sergio will put a competition exhaust line on the car and an electric power steering wheel to make the car easy and pleasant to drive. Hope it runs well soon and is really good to drive.
The car is now near LYON and well keeped in good hands.
