This XK 150 must have lead the life of a nobleman in Italy, as it was only used for longer trips from time to time, just like a real Gran Tourismo, before it was washed, dried and taken back to the garage. Its owners decided to have this elegant "family member" undergo professional restoration, which was less about welding jobs, but more about a revision of the car's technology, for which the car had to be disassembled. New parts and screws can be found down to the last detail, the wiring harness was renewed with modern material according to factory specifications and the medium red leather interior feels and scents original but deliberately not new. The Jaguar's sinewy performance is underlined by the automatic gear shift - a Gran Tourismo is a car for fast but relaxed traveling with luggage - no other car than the aristocratic Jaguar XK 150 Coupé could possibly do a better job.

Previously owned by the famous Italian architect Marco Piva, this XK150 lead the life of a nobleman in Italy and was only used for longer trips on the odd occasion, just like a real Gran Tourismo, before it was washed, dried and taken back to the climate controlled garage. Its owners decided to have this elegant "family member" undergo a professional and extensive nut and bolt restoration between 2012 and 2014. This focused predominately on the cars mechanics as the body had suffered little as a result of the meticulous care of its fastidious owner. New parts and screws can be found down to the last detail, the wiring loom was renewed with modern material according to factory specifications and the medium red leather interior feels original but deliberately not new.

The Jaguars sinewy performance is underlined by the automatic gear shift - a Gran Tourismo is both a car for competitive racing and relaxed cruising with luggage - no other car than the aristocratic Jaguar XK150 Coupe could possibly do a better job.

A rarely seen European version of the XK150 'SE' that has been subject to a complete professional renovation. Its 'S' chassis number prefix indicating that it is a sought after 'Special Equipment' model, this left-hand drive XK150 is not your usual US import. One not to be missed.
