Heritage Notes

Owner: Felix Binsack

At age15 to 18 I made an apprenticeship as a car mechanic at VW in Germany, went back to school and drove 3 Triumph convertibles at the age 18 to 22. Then studied economics and founded a Software services company. At age 57 I felt the urge to own, drive and work on a classic British convertible again. My choice was a XK140DHC. It has many technical improvements over the 120 and I love the practical wind up windows and the luxurious wood and the chrome.
