From The Jaguar XK120 in the Southern Hemisphere (2009) by Elmgreen & McGrath
UK, Australia
John Elmgreen (from Sydney, Australia) and Terry McGrath (Perth, Western Australia) have been extreme XK enthusiasts since the 1970s if not before. In 1985 they published "The Jaguar XK in Australia". It was described by Alan Clark (Jaguar expert, historian, Minister in the UK Thatcher government) as amongst Jaguar books "my own personal favourite" and by Jaguar automobilia expert Ian Cooling as a superb book standing "supreme in the Jaguar library as a testament to years of diligent research and scholarship". Terry McGrath is also co-author of the monumental "Forerunners of Jaguar in Australasia and SE Asia". The new book "The Jaguar XK120 in the Southern Hemisphere" is to be followed in due course by XK140 and XK150 volumes.

I believe the UK registration to be NJW427 (sold new by Attwood's Wolverhampton) and not the registration listed above.
Does anybody have any history based on this updated registration?
Knowing the low production number in RHD in the UK would it be reasonable to believe there would be photos of it somewhere??Regards Jordy

Unfortunately neither of these UK registrations are on DVLA

The number will no longer be on DVLAs database as the car is not presently in the UK.
