    This is a very smart Jaguar XK140 drophead coupe SE with original C-Type cylinder head and overdrive gearbox. This XK was originally exported to Tehran in Iran and has a very interesting history. It has since been returned to the UK, undergone extensive sympathetic restoration work in the 1990's and converted to right hand drive. The car is in its original colour scheme of white with red interior, all the numbers match and benefits from a number of upgrades.

    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?
