Jaguar MK2 3.4 Auto - absolutely stunning For Sale (1967)
I have reluctantly decided to sell my beautiful Metallic Opalescent Golden Sand Jaguar, with the most eye catching and contrasting red leather interior. I have spent the last 5 years (my ownership) having the car put into the superb example you see today. It was restored to original condition when I bought it but I wanted to take it to another level. All the work carried out has been done within the last 1,000 miles and so it is all fresh, crisp, reliable and superbly presented. I wanted a car that retained the beauty, elegance and refinement of the MK2, yet was equipped for modern day driving. The following list outlines the work that has gone into making this such a desirable car, always garaged and never rained on. The significant expenditure, which is way above the selling price, includes:
* New power steering fitted (Barratts)
* New Coopercraft 4 pot calliper disc brakes & pads fitted
* New alternator fitted (Barratts)
* Interior seats and centre console re-trimmed in top grade leather
* New rear seat foams
* XJ6 seats fitted to front

Most of the work I have had done has been completed by classic Jaguar specialists, Flying Cat Engineering, of Royston.
This car represents an opportunity for the discerning buyer, somebody who is looking for a reliable and practical Jaguar and is quite possibly one of the finest and most genuine MK2's you will ever see. Free road tax (of course) and MOT'd until July but I will naturally put 12 months MOT on it for the new owner before collection. I don't use Daisy (as I call her) as much as I would like to and so it is time for her to find a new home and be enjoyed on a regular and frequent basis. She has also been featured 4 times in the Jaguar Drivers Club magazine. Please contact me with any questions or photograph requests and to arrange a viewing. The car comes with an extremely comprehensive history file dating back pretty much to new, with photographs of the restoration. Also, in the 45 years since the car was first registered, I am only the 3rd owner! The car also has a Heritage certificate, confirming the matching numbers. The registration does not come with the car and will revert back to it's original number - RMG 208F.
The price is set at a very sensible level, to reflect the preference for a quick sale, allowing the new owner to enjoy the car for the coming summer months - and beyond!
