Sellers description:
Dies dürfte der perfekteste Jaguar XK 150 sein, den man für Geld kaufen kann. Laut Gutachten sprechen wir hier von einem Wiederbeschaffungswert von 160.000, -- € und einem Wiederaufbauwert von 200.000, -- €. Dies kann man erst ermessen wenn man den Oldtimer live erlebt, gefühlt und gefahren hat. Ich hatte das Vergnügen, ihn kurz hinter Hamburg zu übernehmen und dann auf Achse 660 km zu genießen. Leider war der Spaß schon nach 5 Stunden zu Ende, denn ich war zu Hause. Dies ist eigentlich mit einem Oldtimer, noch dazu mit Automatikgetriebe unvorstellbar aber wenn man bereits bei 3000 U/min ca. 155 km/h schnell ist gibt das halt ein

Auction description:
Lot 124 - 1958 Jaguar XK150SE Drophead Coupe
Estimate: €120,000 - €140,000
Registration Number: EU Taxes Paid
Chassis Number: S837694BW
This wonderful drophead XK 150 is for many classic car enthusiasts one of the most iconic open British sports cars produced. This particular example comes in the tasteful livery of red, matched by a beige leather interior.
This matching numbers motor car underwent a comprehensive restoration in 2013 and boasts subtle upgrades including the fitment of power steering and power brakes as well as improvements to cooling and the ignition system, making the car much more drivable in modern traffic conditions.
We are informed the car is in excellent order in every respect with the interior fitted with heated seats and an improved sound system discreetly installed in the boot. All dials work and the leather is immaculate, making this interior extremely comfortable over long distances. Chrome wire wheels add to the unforgettable impression made by this iconic British sports car.
Lots of smooth power from the 3.4 litre twin overhead six cylinder engine make this particular Jaguar a wonderful investment, which can be used on the roads throughout Europe with verve and gusto, just as it was when it was built.
