This is what many people see as a true classic to invest in, and rightly so; this is 1400KG of gentility. This 1959 Jaguar XK-150S DHC is not just any old one. There were only 68 left-hand drive XK150 3.4 S DHC made. That makes this car a very sought-after and rare investment object. Ours even has a Jaguar Heritage Certificate. So is that all for a promised increasing value? No, it is a matching car with matching colours. The block is the well-known pumpkin-coloured ‘S' block. According to the booklets, this drophead coupé can even reach 215 km/h on this engine. Then one is quite justified in making a sound investment.

Enough about investments and performance, let's talk fun. A true gentleman/lady who drives a Jaguar naturally drives with respect. That means that the sports cat of yesteryear should be spinning quietly, not roaring. In the car world it is sometimes said that the car looks like its owner. However, this cat also knows how to take its owner along in its grandeur. When you get into this car, the feeling that you know about opera, wine, politics and poetry immediately creeps up on you. You stop at the zebra crossing, and you promise pedestrians a safe crossing with a quiet friendly nod and a Queen-like wave. Once you arrive at the Grand Café, the waiter rushes up to you with a neatly groomed moustache and your regular '12 o'clock' a coupe of champagne on his tray.

This Jaguar XK150 S carries an aura of chic, looking for an owner like you. Come for a quick drive and experience what it feels like ‘to be a decent person with class'.
