Vehicle Description
1951 Jaguar Mark V 3-Litre Drophead Coupe LHD: One of fewer than
600 DHCs built in Left-Hand DriveThis desirable 1951 Jaguar Mark V
3 1/2-Litre Drophead Coupe is a rare Right-Hand Drive model and an
excellent original car. Black and burgundy with red interior.
Mechanically sound, the car runs and drives well and comes
accompanied by factory tools. A very straight and solid example
that's highly original. The Jaguar Mark V debuted in 1948 at the
London Motor Show, and it retained a stylistic link to the beloved
pre-war SS cars with its classic William Lyons curves, but it was
otherwise nearly all new. Few people had the chance to own the
dropheads, because only 1,005 were built. The Mark V would be in
production for three years, offered as both a four-door saloon and
two-door drophead coupe. The drophead coupe was already
considerably scarcer in numbers, and it was clearly a car for the
performance enthusiast, as almost all, 977 of 1,005, were built
with the larger, more powerful 3-liter engine. One could say that
the drophead coupe was the XK120 for the sportsman who had a
family. This is a wonderful example of the most desirable Mark V
Jaguar. When it comes to traditional British motoring, no car
better combines style and comfort than the Jaguar Mark V. The most
