1963 JAGUAR MkII 3.8 Litre
The Jaguar Mark 2 is a medium-sized saloon car built from late 1959 to 1967 by Jaguar in Coventry, England. Adhering to Sir William Lyons' maxim of "grace, pace and space", the Mark 2 was a fast and capable saloon. It came with either a 120 bhp 2,483 cc, 210 bhp 3,442 cc, or 220 bhp 3,781 cc Jaguar XK engine. The 3.8 is similar to the unit used in the 3.8 E-Type, having the same block, crank, connecting rods and pistons but different inlet manifold and carburetion.
The Mark 2 gained a reputation as a capable car among criminals and law enforcement alike; the 3.8 Litre model being particularly fast with its 220 bhp engine driving the car from 0-60 mph in 8.5 seconds and to a top speed of 125 mph, with enough room for five adults. Popular as getaway cars, they were also employed by the police to patrol British motorways.
This 1963 Jaguar MK 2 3.8 Manual is presented in Old English white with red leather interior. The vendor states that it has covered a genuine 80,000 miles, starts on the button and drives very well. The car benefits from refurbished wood dashboard and trims, and it has also had a recent full service, brake overhaul, and resetting of the carburettors. It is said to be in lovely condition and is a very useable classic.
