1956 Jaguar XK-140 Convertible

  • Chassis Number: 5811778
The Jaguar XK-140 was introduced in 1954 and produced for a short time, ending in 1956. As such, these vehicles are very rare. The Xk-140MC is an even rarer breed. The 'M' represented 'Modified' while the 'C' was for the C-Type racing head. The very sporty XK-140MC produced 210 and could race from zero-to-sixty in less than 8.5 seconds. The top speed was over 120 mph.

The dark black example shown with chassis number 5811778 was auctioned at the 2006 Worldwide Group Auction held on the Hilton Head Island. It was expected to fetch between $120,000-$130,000. At the conclusion of the auction, the vehicle had been left unsold.
