Descrizione

A Jaguar XK 140 Drophead Coupé in dark blue with light leather upholstery and carpets. Somehow, it does wonders for the XK in our opinion, presenting a very stylish overall look. In 1954, Jaguar introduced the XK140. At first glance, one might say that the XK140 bears a strong resemblance to the XK120, its predecessor. However, upon closer inspection, it becomes apparent that the XK140 is a more refined car. For instance, the grille is different, and the XK140 has larger bumpers.
 
Underneath, Jaguar made several technical changes. They shifted the engine slightly forward and equipped the chassis with stiffer torsion bars at the front. Luckily, Jaguar continued to use the trusted and fantastic 3.4-litre engine. This six-cylinder-engine now delivered 190 hp, and with the gearbox receiving closer ratios, the Jaguar XK140 became somewhat livelier and more eager. Overdrive also became an option. All of this was great news because the 'new' Jaguar now kept up with the times in terms of performance.
 
Our Jaguar at Gallery Aaldering in Brummen is from 1954 and comes with extensive documentation such as the Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate, several original brochures, a period road test, a maintenance and service book, and parts catalogue.
