    Current bid US $75,000 reserve not met 1 bid 6 days left in auction. 29k miles.

    Sellers description:
    1959 Jaguar XK 150 Roadster offered with a reserve.

    This exceptional example has been in the current family's care for over 40 years. Once part of a large collection, this car was retained as a favorite, when the collection was dispersed some time back. Maintained in excellent condition throughout its life. and restored a few years back, it has been used sparingly on sunny summer days only. The car starts right up, runs smoothly, shifts well, handles like a Jaguar should, and stops well.

    Finished in its original livery, with its original drivetrain, this car is ready with some minor fluffing for the most demanding concours. This is one of those cars that comes along rarely- a fine example that has been maintained by people who know cars its entire life, a cherished heirloom.

    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?
