Description.

Originally a 3.4-litre model, this XK150 Coupé was supplied new via Jaguar Cars, New York and first owned by one J Seaman. It was a 'Personal Export Delivery' and was registered in the UK as 'UWK 270' prior to despatch to the USA. It is not known when it was converted to right-hand drive. An Australian advertisement on file, dated May 2014, states that the engine (from a MkIX saloon) and gearbox (an all-synchromesh unit) were fully restored in 2011 and that the car had seen relatively little use over the preceding five years. The current vendor purchased the XK from Australia and imported it into the UK earlier this year. Import duties have been paid and the car comes with a Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate.

Delivered to the USA the car was known to be in Australia by 1999 with Wastern Australia registrations AK 8302 and 150S58. It has been fitted with a 3.8L motor from a Jaguar Mk X with triple SU carburettors. The car was restored in the early 2000s and in 2008, the car had the cylinder head refurbished and also fitted a refurbished gearbox from a Jaguar Mk II and appears to have returned to the UK by 2014 as it was placed up for sale at ClassicCarsForSale.co.uk in May of '14. The car went back for a full restoration in the UK in 2017 and seen at Goodwood as mentioned above in 2018.
