Only 888 3.4 liter XK150 S roadsters were produced from 1957 - 1961. The XK150 S roadster has become a highly prized and collectable jaguar, the final evolution of the XK series that produced 250 Horsepower with 136 mph top speed, factory 4 wheel disk brakes, and was the first roadster in the series to provide the driver with roll up windows.

This particular XK 150 Jaguar is very well equipped with many of the Special Equipment options including Dual exhausts, wire wheels and electronic overdrive. It is also equipped with the original Radio speaker, antenna, and original radio control box in the trunk, but the radio head unit was never with the car (these are available on EBAY, or other sources) This car was restored 10 years ago from a very original automobile, and still remains in very nice condition. The paint is very nice with a deep shine and only a few minor flaws are detectable on close examination. The chrome on the car was redone except for the headlight trim rings, and the windshield frame that appear to still be original. The engine compartment is highly detailed, and correct. The Black leather remains in good condition with some wear to the drivers seat as seen in the photos. This car was restored to be driven and it was. This Jaguar runs and drives very strong. It is smooth and responsive, all the gauges are working, and the electric overdrive works great. The car was fitted with a strong clutch return spring for racing purposes as well as racing seat belts. Back in the early days the previous owner ran the car at watkins glenn, the car has had only 2 previous owners since new. The underside of the car remains in mostly original condition and is not detailed. The painted wire wheels and tires are in fair condition , but do show signs that they should be balanced. ( If the car does not sell I am planning on fitting it with chrome wheels and new tires, which can still be done at the purchasers expense). Also the car was never fitted with a new top when the restoration was done, since the owner only used it in good weather, but the original top irons are installed in the car and fully restored (a top can be fitted at the purchasers expense as well)

This car is a blast to drive and is not a trailer queen that you will be afraid to drive and enjoy.
