Condition: Driver
It is not often that you find a 150S Roadster for sale. This is a special opportunity for a Jaguar collector that wants a very rare and collectible car that he can drive now and enjoy.

This is a factory built Jaguar XK150 S that has been maintained and kept as a well driving car. These cars are very rare and collectible and this car is a great investment long-term. A few years back, the block was exchanged for a new re-buildable block which was performed by Jaguar professionals. The head and transmission are original as stated on the Heritage Certificate which accompanies this car. The overdrive on the transmission works wonderfully and is great on the highway. The car is very solid inside and out and is accompanied by a thick file of receipts. The car was also fitted with new tan soft top, new tires, and the car was painted from its original white to British Racing Green. The Motorola radio is fully functional and a great accessory. This is a car that you can get in and drive and enjoy today. When you are ready, it can be turned into a champion show winner!
