About this car

The 3.8 was the fastest of the Mk 2 Jaguars, and this 1960 right-hand-drive car pairs the big six-cylinder engine with a manual gearbox and overdrive, which makes for relaxed long-distance cruising.

It is a matching-numbers car finished in silver over red leather, with chrome wire wheels and power steering. The page says it was restored to a high standard several years ago and describes it as rust free.

It is used regularly for shows and rallies. The dealer rates it as the nicest-driving 3.8 they have had in many years. The price is on application.
