Auction description:
ESTIMATE £45,000- £60,000
Auction Syon Park 2019 Auction Date 19th October 2019
Lot Number 144
Reg. Number UK Registered
Chassis Number S824029DN
Year 1957
Jaguar ModelXK150 SE
This XK on offer today is one such rare survivor of a British sports car delivered new in Britain. Records indicate that this is one of the earliest cars to come off the production line, in early 1957, the year that has been considered the happiest year in Britain of the 20th Century, famed by Prime Minister Macmillain’s quote “we’ve never had it so good” – and we can only imagine the impact this machine would have had on the streets of such an optimistic Britain, with other such historical feats in 1957 such as the first World Championship win for a British car in Formula One and the opening of the Jodrell Bank observatory.
The car as such a survivor has obviously been properly maintained and restored, with a body off chassis restoration and the chassis restored, and all mechanical systems restored and refinished as new, and this work is photographically documented, clearly indicating that much if not most of the original British car remains, a fact so important in the restoration.
Complete with the original buff log book from the time – a worthy survivor from an optimistic and excited post-war Britain.

In October of 1960 the car was sold to a Mr Gordon Richard Matthews of Christchurch in Dorset, by 1964 the car had changed hands and was owned by Major Edward B Wilson of Hampshire, then later in the year chassis 824029 was sold to Mr Cyril Arthur Frederick Fuller Shapcott in Berkshire who kept the car until 1967 when Mr Maurice Geoffrey Paige of Berkshire acquired the car, later purchased by Mr Wilfred Clive Dance of Devon, who never drove the car. The car was purchased by its current owner in the summer of 1984 from Devon where it had been in storage, when found it was in a sorry state and needed some attention.
In 1995 the car was subject to a complete nut and bolt restoration by Fernbank Motor Co and Thurston Engineering. First the body was completely stripped down to bare metal with the body being removed from the chassis for some welding work which had to be carried out, the car was resprayed in old English white, the leather is untouched with the roof lining, door panels and carpets replaced. The restoration was completed in 2005, the car still shows the quality of the restoration.

This Jaguar XK150 is a timelessly elegant classic British sports coupe, which benefits from a historical restoration.
Under the bonnet sits a naturally aspirated 3.4-litre straight-six, which sends its power to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive.
This example has been with the seller for five years.
The odometer indicates 48,535 miles, though this is not warranted.
Equipment and features
This XK150 is finished in a refined shade of Old English White over a bold red leather-trimmed interior, featuring a beige leather dashboard inlay and chrome trim highlights.
It rides on a set of 16-inch body-coloured cross-spoke wire wheels with chrome two-spoke knock-offs, fitted with Vredestein Sprint Classic tyres.
Equipment includes a four-spoke steering wheel, push-out front and rear quarter light windows, Smiths gauges, and a heater.
The car comes with the V5C, period photos of the car, photos of the restoration, a Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust record trace certificate, a maintenance and service handbook, the original registration book, the original build plaque, and a selection of maintenance invoices, MOT certificates, and old tax discs.
Condition
Specific notes from the seller include: the car received a full repaint during the restoration, by a marque specialist and the interior has been retrimmed, with the exception of the seats.
Service history
The seller states that the last maintenance was in September 2025 at around an indicated 46,000 miles by a local garage.
Other notable maintenance includes the positive earth generator being repaired, and the voltage regulator being converted to electronic in February 2022.
