This 1961 Jaguar Mark ll 3.8 represents one of the most readily
recognized cars of the 1960s, thanks in part to countless
appearances in films and television, Jaguar's seminal Mark ll
saloon set the standard for the class throughout its entire
production life and today remains highly prized by enthusiasts.
Boasting Dunlop disc brakes all round and a choice of 2.4, 3.4 and
3.8-litre XK engines, the Jaguar Mark ll provided the discerning
enthusiast driver with one of the finest sports saloons available
in the 1960s. In its top-of-the-line, 3.8-litre, overdrive-equipped
form, the Mark 2 could reach 125mph with 60mph coming up in 8.5
seconds, impressive figures for a car of its size even by today's
standards.
Finished strikingly in British Racing Green, this rare machine
features Marchal headlights and to create an elegant and sporting
look. The restored tan leather interior looks just as a proper
vintage Jaguar should, replete with sumptuous upholstery, burled
wood dash and trim, Smiths gauges, an upgraded Sony
AM/FM/CD/AUX/Bluetooth radio, and an ingenious rear mounted
aftermarket air conditioning system.
Under the bonnet, the owner has upgraded the car with dual Weber
carburetors, making the classic Jaguar a pleasure to drive.
Thousands of dollars' worth of receipts come with the car,
documenting the service and restoration work lovingly invested. The
car also features 4-wheel disc brakes, 4-speed manual transmission
with electric overdrive, as well as an upgraded charging system.
These important enhancements, combined with its smooth-running
rebuilt 3.8-liter engine, make this classic Jaguar an absolute
pleasure to drive.
