Description
-Black with Red leather interior, Green Piping, Green carpeting, restored, Twin carb 3.8-liter engine, 4-speed manual gearbox with overdrive, Well-serviced with upgrades.
Elegant and sporty, the 3.8 Mk 2 was one of the fastest four-door saloons in its day. It was stunning to look at and exceptional to drive. The 3.8 utilized a twin-carburetor variant of the engine for the E-Type. It shared the same block, crank, connecting rods and pistons. With 220bhp, the engine hauled the MK 2 to a top speed of 126mph. E-Type power in this sporty saloon packs quite the vintage punch, it is great fun to drive.
This Mk 2 was produced on November 21st, 1961, and sold through Jaguar Cars, New York to its first owner in Washington DC. With a plethora of history and service records this Mk 2 always received proper maintenance and care regardless of use. This includes a full repaint, full retrim/reupholstery, upgraded wheels. Anything and everything has always been serviced and well-kept to ensure it was always in exceptional mechanical and cosmetic condition.
The most recent owner (during this year) fully serviced the brake system, new clutch with lightweight flywheel, new tires, foglamps plus made further improvements including fitting modern air conditioning, alloy radiator, hi torque starter, dynalite generator, modern sound system with Bluetooth and rear-view camera.
All systems work as they should. In excellent condition throughout. A recent road test attests its being in excellent mechanical condition and extremely fun to drive. This Mk 2 includes its original tool kit, spare wheel, service records and copy of Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate. This Mk 2 represents a great value for a collector or enthusiast seeking an enjoyable and fun vintage Jaguar sports saloon.
