1958 JAGUAR XK150 3.4L OTS SE

Chassis number: S831270

Classic car registration document

- Sought-after SE model

- 5-speed gearbox and power steering

- Single-owner since 2007

- First car to be fitted with 4 disc brakes.

- Numerous interesting improvements to enhance driving comfort

The car on offer is an OTS (Open Two Seater) roadster in the 3.4-litre SE version, delivered in British Racing Green with a beige leather interior. After being owned by a collector from Isère from 1991 to 2007, this car came into the possession of its current owner.

This car has undergone several technical modifications designed to make it easier to use, carried out by the previous owner between 1991 and 2007. Whilst there are no associated invoices, these modifications are detailed in an expert’s report. A genuine BMW 5-speed manual gearbox has been fitted, along with hydraulic power steering, a stainless steel exhaust system, 4-piston brake calipers, an electric fuel pump and an additional fan. The 3.4-litre engine has also been fitted with three SU carburettors. Inside, the original seats have been replaced with bucket seats mounted on extended rails to improve interior space.

These various modifications make the car easier to use by mitigating some of its original limitations, notably thanks to lighter steering, a more responsive transmission, and a more spacious interior.

Since 2007, maintenance has been carried out by marque specialists, including a service at AS Engineering in 2017 and the replacement of the master cylinder in 2023. The bodywork has benefited from a well-executed older restoration, whose even patina gives the car an authentic charm.

Today, the engine starts and runs properly. However, as the car has seen little use in recent years, we recommend a mechanical check-up before undertaking any long journeys. More accessible than ever, this 1958 Jaguar XK150 3.4 L OTS SE combines its legendary lines with technical improvements that make it easier to use, while retaining the charm of a beautiful patina.
