The XK150, introduced in May 1957, came in two body styles: Fixed Head Coupé (FHC) and Drop Head Coupé (DHC).

Racing Heritage Jaguar has a storied history of successful racing, with their competition cars achieving impressive victories. The XK-150 sports touring car combines the reliability and safety proven on the racetrack with classic styling and elegance.

Engine & Gearbox This XK150 is equipped with its original 3.8-liter straight-six engine. However, it has been enhanced with the addition of fast road camshafts and adjusted carburetors, resulting in a smooth idle and slow-speed performance while unlocking its full potential at higher revs. Paired with the renowned Getrag 5-speed conversion, you get perfectly spaced gear ratios and full synchromesh gear selection, ensuring an exceptional driving experience in any situation.

Disc Brakes Unlike previous XK models with poor braking capabilities, the XK150 features a vastly improved full disc braking system. It boasts 12-inch Dunlop discs on all four wheels for enhanced braking performance.

Wheel Options The XK150 offered a choice between wire wheels and steel disc wheels. Wire wheels were a factory option, while steel disc wheels came as standard equipment. While steel disc wheels are more commonly seen on XK150s today, this car retains its distinctive wire wheels.

Exterior and Interior This car boasts a deep British racing green exterior finish complemented by a beige leather interior. Green Wilton carpeting adorns the floors. It is in excellent condition both aesthetically and in terms of performance. The high-quality hood fits snugly.

The Jaguar XK150 presents a unique opportunity for its future owner to acquire a beautifully designed and high-performing British classic car.

Investment in Excellence Significant recent investments have been made in this car to elevate it to one of the finest XK150s available on the market.
