It was during a trip to the United States that our collector found this XK 120 which was in Florida, at a specialist in Fort Lauderdale. It is also amusing to note that its previous owner bore the name Delahaye, as can be seen in the registration document. This car arrived in the collection in 2008 and the owner, having already restored several Jaguars and English cars, wanted an exceptional restoration for this XK 120. To do this, he entrusted it to a specialist he knew well who carried out a beautiful restoration. Unfortunately, the file of the restoration work has been lost, but we invite interested buyers to come and see the degree of the thoroughness of this restoration. The "old English white" paintwork is immaculate and the superb upholstery has been done in a two tone red and black leather, which suits this roadster beautifully. Additionally, the car has its original engine and cylinder head, as well as its correct body number. Our collector has carried out some improvements, such as the addition of two small USB sockets under the dashboard. The discretion of this operation testifies to the concern for perfection that guided the restoration of this car.
