Note that this car was not originally issued with UK registration plate WYH150 which in fact was issued to XK150 FHC T824864DN when new, 4 chassis numbers earlier, and which car has been in Australia since 1979. It appears that a certificate issued for this car is in error.

This matching-numbers car is one of only 42 right-hand drive XK150S 3.4-litre fixed-head coupés made and was sold new via Henlys, London to a Captain R C Todhunter, who was serving in Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) at the time. Shipped to Rhodesia, the car subsequently went to South Africa, winning a number of concours awards there, before returning to the UK circa 2000. Reunited with its original registration number, 'WYH 150', the XK was acquired by the current vendor in July 2006 and has been fully restored while in his ownership, including a bare-metal repaint, the exterior colour being changed from Cotswold Blue to Indigo Blue in the process. In addition, 'WYH 150' has been upgraded with a Getrag five-speed gearbox; Vicarage power assisted steering rack; 123 electronic ignition; full stainless steel exhaust system including manifolds; single 12-volt battery; and a manual choke (operated via the redundant overdrive switch). The original matching-numbers Moss four-speed gearbox and original steering rack are included in the sale.

There are numerous invoices on file relating to the car's South African and subsequent UK ownership together with a photographic record of the body restoration showing the straight and sound panels. Expired MoT certificates for the period 2005-2011 are present also. Described by the private vendor as in generally very good condition, having successfully completed a continental touring holiday, this rare and desirable XK150S fixed-head coupé is offered with MoT to June 2016, V5C registration document and Jaguar/Daimler Heritage Certificate confirming matching numbers.
