Sold for € 126,500 (US$ 140,351) inc. premium

Ex-Fréderic Dor

1958 Jaguar XK150 S 3.4-Litre Roadster

Chassis no. S 830778 DN

•One of only 846 built

•Delivered new to the USA

•Restored in Germany in 1995

Representing the Jaguar XK150 in one of its most desirable forms, with the S-specification engine and overdrive transmission, left-hand drive chassis number 'S 830778 DN' was delivered new to Jaguar Cars, New York, USA. Formerly owned by the famous French racing driver, Fréderic Dor, the car left the factory finished in British Racing Green with Suede Green leather interior and black hood, the same combination it has today, and is one of only 846 of its type completed. Having benefited from a full restoration in Germany in 1995, this rare and highly sought after British thoroughbred is an eminently practical car for touring events, rallies, or simple everyday use. Offered with BMIHT Certificate and Swiss registration papers.

Please note this motor car is subject to the reduced local import tax should it remains in the EU.

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?
