Introduction
Glyn Parry
A superb 3.8-litre example of Jaguar's definitive MKII saloon – beautifully proportioned, elegant, and supremely capable.
Along with the E-Type and the XK120 / 150, the MKII in firmly in Jaguar's ‘A Lister' category – its beautiful, luxurious, elegant and a serious performer.
Introduced in 1959 the Jaguar MKII eclipsed its predecessor with improvements to handling, a more modern appearance and the availability of a 3.8L straight six engine.
As well as offering typical Jaguar refinement, the cars were fast and nimble leading to them quickly establishing a well-deserved reputation as an excellent ‘getaway’ car. In response, the Police ordered specially tuned and modified examples to both catch the criminals and patrol newly opened British motorways that, at the time, had no speed limits.
Coming to auction from 14 years of ownership is this really superb example of the MKII. With a 3.8 Litre engine, it’s the most desirable of the range and is presented in absolutely incredible, original, condition. The deep black paintwork is stunning, contrasting with the excellent chrome trim and wire wheels perfectly. The leather and hallmark Burl Walnut interior is supremely comfortable, gorgeous to look at and absolutely captures the spirit of '60s luxury motoring.
With a comprehensive history file showing careful, meticulous, and devoted ownership, together with a fresh MOT, this curvaceous black cat is ready to pounce.
We have taken plenty of high-resolution photos and videos of this beautiful Jaguar - so please do take a look and judge for yourself – we doubt you’ll be disappointed.

Hi Dennis
As far as I remember it mentions an oil leak from the rear crankshaft
This as now been sorted the engine had to come out of the car to fix the crankcase oil leak anis now perfect at a cost to me of £1500 I know it’s mine but it’s gorgeous it’s kept in a dehumidified garage and spoilt rotten? as do my other cars
Regards
Phil
Thanks for that Phil
It also mentioned on the mot advise that there was a leak on the diff and the brake discs were worn’
Has that been done.
Thanks Denis
As stated oil leaks repaired but you have to appreciate cars of this era always leaked a bit of oil
Even when new I can remember going into a Jaguar showroom with my dad in the early 60s and there were drip trays under every car it was acceptable then
As far as the discs no they haven’t been replaced to my knowledge
The discs were just cleaned up I have been told as they were not as bad as first thought
