This classic was restored in the 1990’s to a show level finish. It has been driven only 1400 miles since the restoration. The owner, prior to myself, owned it since 1972. When he passed, I was able to acquire the car from his estate.
It is a numbers matching car, with the venerable 3.4 liter inline six cylinder engine that was fully rebuilt during the restoration. It starts on the first turn of the key and idles perfectly. No smoke, no drama. She drives very well and shifts well – having a new clutch and a rebuilt transmission.
It features chrome wire wheels – including the spare.
The interior is in restored condition aside from vandalism done at a car show. Note in the pictures that the door panels (only) were sliced – both sides. I’ll have these panels redone before the new buyer acquires the car.
Also, I have new (wing) side view mirrors that will be installed prior to the acquisition AND new chrome bonnet trim (just arrived). There was a small ding on the old one.
The right rear turn signal has a dent – but, I ordered a new one – and will replace it.
Other than that, she shows very nicely. I’ve had a vast collection of cars and have been fond of XK’s for many years and have owned many. This coupe is – pretty. I was tempted to put white wall tires on her – but have not yet done so.
All of the chrome is in great shape, the grill is straight and very nice. The bumpers look great also, as the previous owner rechromed everything.
The odometer was reset at time of restoration. I do not know the original miles, but post restoration, it doesn’t really matter.
The tires look new with no dry rotting at all. The wire wheels are in great shape, but would benefit from a detail.
The interior leather is free of wear and tear and looks new. The wood dash was redone and looks beautiful.
The trunk compartment (boot) was restored also – and the engine compartment, although dusty now, was restored. The head is a correct light green color.
I am searching for a set of windshield wiper as the car mysteriously does not have them. Frankly, until I took the pictures, I forgot.
She is fine running car and a bit of a bargain really, as you can attend any car show and many rally events in an XK150. They are powerful and torquey and a pleasure to row through the gears.
She is ready for the new owner as I must reluctantly sell her to fund my technology company. (startups aren’t easy).
I’ve placed a best offer option on her so an astute buyer will get a great deal.

Jaguar 3 Series-fighter to spawn coupe, wagon
Wed, 25 Sep 2013With its sights set on the BMW 3 Series, Jaguar could be planning a full range of models for its upcoming entry-level car - possibly called the XS. We've already seen spy shots of the four-door version of this all-aluminum baby Jag, but according to Auto Express, the automaker will also offer the car in coupe and wagon variants.
The XS sedan should hit the market in 2015, and the coupe and wagon models are expected soon after that. Speaking with Jag's global brand director Adrian Hallmark, AE says that the XS will be focused on styling with a design similar to the recently introduced C-X17 crossover concept. Hallmark also said that the addition of the XS lineup could help Jaguar double its sales, which were at 357,773 global units in 2012. Head on over to Auto Express for some speculative renderings of the XS coupe and wagon.

Fri, Jul 14 2017After months of testing – some of which we caught in spy photos – and a little teasing, Jaguar has officially entered the compact crossover space with the launch of the 2018 E-Pace. And it was a fairly grand entry, too.
Jaguar could still revive XK as luxury grand tourer
Tue, Dec 9 2014With the F-Type taking the lion's – or Jaguar's – share of attention lately, it would be all too easy to forget all about a Jag once known as the XK. But it existed, and it could once again. First introduced in 1996 as the XK8 to replace the old XJS, the XK survived for two generations. It was available as a 2+2 coupe or convertible and was powered by Jaguar's signature AJ-V8 engine. By the time it was discontinued just this past summer, the ultimate XKR-S packed as much as 542 horsepower. But though it had two more seats, the XK was rendered largely obsolete by the arrival of the nimbler, newer and arguably more stylish F-Type. According to Autocar, however, the XK could be reinstated with a more GT-like approach. The XK as we've known it, said Jaguar's Ross Varney to the British weekly, "straddled the GT and sports car segment, with more of an emphasis on the GT side but probably not enough." Varney was in charge of the F-Type project and was also responsible for a new project to replace the XK until it was shut down earlier this year. "We have plans to do lots more with the F-Type," said Varney, "but there will still be other areas we want to cover. We need to find the right way to deliver on them, and the XK could be one way of doing that." What Varney is saying, essentially, is that while the XK project may not be moving forward just yet, it could be revived in the near future. If it did, we'd be looking at a more accommodating and luxurious grand tourer, different from the F-Type that's more of a focused sports car. Think of it, then, as more of a Bentley Continental GT, but probably less expensive - or put another way, if the F-Type is a junior Aston Martin V8 Vantage, the new XK would be a (relatively) more accessible DB9. The intel sounds similar to what we heard when the most recent XK was being put out to pasture, but tells us that hope is still alive for those interested in a two-door Jag with room for the kids in the back.
