1949 Jaguar XK120 Navigation
This Jaguar XK120 roadster is an early example of the 184 left-hand drive alloy cars built, chassis number 59. This open two-seater left-hand drive car was completed on December 16th of 1949 and shipped to the Canadian distributor, James L. Cooke Motors in Toronto, Canada. It came finished in Red with a Biscuit and Red leather interior and a black soft top, in similar fashion to its current color scheme.
It has pressed steel wheels and rear wheel spats. It was given a comprehensive restoration by RM Restoration in 1990. The twin-cam XK engine and SU carburetors offer 160 horsepower and there is a four-speed manual transmission.
In 2012, this car was offered for sale at RM Auctions Monterey, California sale. It was estimated to sell for $300,000 - $350,000. As bidding came to a close, the car was sold for the sum of $280,500 inclusive of buyer's premium.By Daniel Vaughan | Nov 2012
