We consider the Jaguar E-Type a masterpiece. There are simply no other words for it. Besides the iconic body lines, the fantastic 3.8-liter engine also contributes to this. A joy to drive, the Jaguar E-Type was the fastest production car of its time, with its high-power output and a top speed of 240 km/h. Are you looking for a Jaguar that matches the E-Type's performance but also offers comfortable seating for five and a large trunk? The Jaguar Mark 2 is the (only) answer. We can cautiously state that Jaguar managed to be the first brand to bring a sedan to the market that combined very sporty performance with a high level of comfort and a very spacious trunk. In short, traveling in style with comfort and high performance. And the Mark 2 could also be delivered with the 3.8-liter engine.

The Jaguar Mark 2, in addition to its excellent reputation as a jack-of-all-trades, is also forever associated with the bank robbers of that time. Why? Because the MK2s were fast and agile, they were terribly well-suited as getaway cars.
Here in Brummen, we have a very beautiful Jaguar MK2 equipped with the powerful 3.8-liter six-cylinder engine. With 220 hp under the hood, this sporty and fast sedan is excellently equipped mechanically. With this warm red Jaguar Mk2, you will immediately feel like Inspector Morse, who drove an identical car in the eponymous series.

In this case, the engine is coupled with an automatic transmission, making sportiness and comfort go hand in hand. The top speed of this model is over 200 km/h, and from a standstill, it reaches 96 km/h (60 mph) in a still respectable 8.5 seconds. The 3.8 inline-six certainly lives up to the expectations associated with 220 hp in such a car. A powerful six-cylinder with a lot of torque that accelerates effortlessly to high speeds. The gearbox shifts smoothly, and driving is very pleasant.

The Mark II was introduced in 1959, and this example is from 1962. In 1995, the car was brought to the Netherlands and always received the deserved maintenance. In the past, this example underwent restoration work, and the body is still neat and well-kept. The paintwork is in good condition, and the chrome, rubbers, and details all look fine, with the panel fits being neat. The pleasantly heavy doors close easily. Even by modern standards, an MK II still feels luxurious and solid; truly a car 'on a level.'

The interior exudes the atmosphere of the 1960s. The leather is beautifully patinated. The seats at most show that the car has been enjoyed, which often becomes more beautiful with use. The instruments all function as they should and look wonderful. All control elements also function as you would expect. As for driving: it is fantastic! The engine runs very smoothly, and you are assured of very good performance.

We can be straightforward about this MK II: a very pleasant car that looks neat and is technically sound. Are you interested in this beautiful Jaguar? Contact us today; we are happy to assist you.
