In the mid-1960s, the Jaguar Mark X Saloon was priced at around $7,390 which was about $2,000 more than an E-Type or a well-equipped Cadillac. Still, it was about half the price of a Bentley S3. Production of the Mark X 3.8 lasted just three years with production reaching nearly 13,000 units. Fewer than a third of them were left-hand drive cars built for export.

This example was originally sent to the United States. It is painted in a burgundy hue with cream leather. It is equipped with an automatic gearbox and factory air conditioning. It was purchased new in California and used very little for many years. When the owner died, his daughter, Jovita Valdez, took possession of the car. It was given a restoration and later shown at the 2007 Newport Beach Concours where it took third in class.

At some point in the cars life, it was fitted with a four-speed automotai9c from an XJ6. It has a modern stereo system and new center lock wire wheels.

In 2008, the car was offered for sale at the 'Quail Lodge, A Sale of Exceptional Motorcars and Automobilia' where it was sold for $32,760 inclusive of buyer's premium.
