Vehicle Description
1956 Jaguar Mark VIII is a luxury four-door sports sedan introduced
by the Jaguar company of Coventry at the 1956 London Motor Show.
The car shared its 10-foot (3.05 m) wheelbase with its predecessor,
the Jaguar Mark VII, which outwardly it closely resembled. However,
the interior fittings were more luxurious than those of the Mark
VII. Distinguishing visually between the models is facilitated by
changes to the front grille, the driving or fog lamps being moved
from the front panel to the horizontal panel between bumper & front
panel, larger rear lamps and most obviously a curved chrome trim
strip below the waistline which allowed the factory to offer a
variety of two-tone paint schemes. In addition the new car had rear
spats that were cut back to display more of the rear wheels and
featured a one-piece slightly curved windscreen, where the Mark VII
had incorporated a two-piece front screen of flat glass. Please
