    Offered at auction by Bonhams on Feb.5, 2011 in Paris (France).
    www.bonhams.com/
    Lot #305 which description reads:
    Since acquisition the car has been fastidiously maintained regardless of cost and benefited from further extensive work, including a new full leather interior in dark green with lighter green piping, new petrol tank, new wiring and an electric cooling fan. A perfect touring car offering both open and closed motoring in considerable style, the XK120 has been used and enjoyed on private summer tours abroad and closer to home. Kept in dry storage and not used in recent months, the car comes with Austrian registration papers and should require only light re-commissioning before further use.

    Estimate: €60,000 - 80,000

    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?
