The Sept. 2013 edition of the XK Gazette asks the question if the car still exists, last seen in '77.

Two pals of mine - seen in the photo - had started out in the car repair business. After restoring a 3.8 E-type DHC, which had lain by the roadside unmoved for yonks and which they bought for peanuts, they decided restoring cars, particularly Jaguars, was their way ahead. This was in the late 1970s.

Accordingly, in the pub one evening they announced they would find another suitable restoration project by driving around the streets in an 'expensive location'. They chose the Richmond Hill area of Richmond Upon Thames and within 30 mins had found this XK150 in a front garden. Mild haggling ensued and they drove it away for £700.

There used to be a 120 DHC sat in a garden in Richmond Hill in the earl 70's.
