Description
Superb condition. Only 23, 600 miles. Heritage Certificate. Recent Service. Ready to use.
This gorgeous Jaguar in opalescent silver blue with blue leather trim was built in 1966, delivered to Henly’s of London in February 1967 and then sold to Robert Dyas Ltd. There it remained until 1971 when purchased by their store manager. He used it sparingly after which it was stored for about 40 years until purchased from his deceased estate by David Day of CCB Sales Ltd in 2014. A new V5 and a Heritage Certificate were obtained and it was given an extensive refurbishment, based on receipts from David Manners the Jaguar specialist. It was more recently purchased by Villiers Classics from whom we obtained it in 2024. We have had the car fully serviced including brakes, tyres etc and refurbished the automatic choke and washers, rendering it ready to be used.
The paintwork is great and the chrome is good with one or two marks on close inspection. Inside it is superbly comfortable with soft leather and much wood with little signs of wear although nearly 60 years old. The original aircraft-style seat belts are retained. The underneath is all solid and tidy and the polished aluminium 4. 2 litre engine performs as it should with such a low mileage. Handbook, receipts etc and a copy of the buff log book are present in the file.
