1959 Jaguar Mk1 Saloon 3.4 litre, Automatic, RHD. for sale.

Introduction. In 1958 The Autocar Magazine spoke highly of the Jaguar Mk1 Saloon "It is no exaggeration to describe the 3.4-litre Jaguar both outright and in terms of money as one of the most outstanding cars in current production anywhere" over a 2000 mile roadtest across northern Europe "the cars remarkable capabilities impressed in ever-increasing degree". In 2011 the MK1 Saloon is a relatively rare Jaguar model. As one might expect its interior has more in common with an XK140 or 150 than the later and more available MK2 Saloon. The 3.4 engine offers excellent performance quite capable of holding its own in modern traffic and the rare Automatic gear box gives the car a more modern character, removing the need for challenging double de-clutch changes! We really love Mk1 saloons here at Classic Bikes!

NB Don't forget also the wonderful racing history of the Mk1 Saloon.

History & Condition. Jaguars records show that our Mk1 3.4 was manufactured on 30th April 1959. It was finished in Cream with red trim and was supplied to Jaguar Cars New York, USA. It was sold new in the Sate of California and resided there until returning to the UK where it was registered in 1992.

The car was at that time the subject of an extensive re-build including conversion to Right Hand Drive, re-paint, re-trim and engine re-build. The body shell remains in remarkably sound and original order as one would hope from a "dry state" Californian vehicle.

Overall a very good original and usable example.
