Lot #17690

This matching-numbers XK150 was originally delivered to Belgium, and is now offered for sale by the motor trade in Finland.  

A Classic Data inspection report is on file and shown in the gallery, when the car was given a 1- grade rating. 

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES 

This XK150 was originally finished in Cotswold Blue, and has since been resprayed in its current shade of deep green.   

Its original dark blue cabin has been retrimmed in tan leather with matching carpets.  

It rides on a set of wire wheels with twin-eared chrome knock-off nuts and Dunlop tyres. 

The cabin is fitted with Smiths dials, a locking glovebox, and a Blaupunkt radio. There are also driver and passenger sun visors, manual-winding windows, and opening front quarterlights. 

Accompanying the sale is the original Belgian registration document, a Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Production Certificate, Italian registration documents, an inspection certificate, and the spare wheel. 

CONDITION 

The resprayed paintwork is said to be in excellent condition, with very small paint cracks reported on the roof and bonnet, only visible under certain light. 

Inside, the retrimmed cabin is in great shape, showing no significant imperfections and no wear or discolouration. 

The seller is not aware of any mechanical or electrical faults.  

The most recent roadworthiness test was reportedly conducted in 2023, resulting in a clean pass.  

SERVICE HISTORY 

The engine was rebuilt as part of the car’s restoration.
