The XK 150, offered between 1957 to 1961, was the last evolution of the XK series first introduced in 1948. Other than the XK 120 and the XK 140 series, the 150 had a more “ponton” shaped design without the pronounced kink in front of the rear mudguard. Also, it was one of the first automobiles equipped with fourwheel disc brakes and, from 1959, was also available with the inline 6 engine enlarged to 3.8 litres. Our example is equipped with this engine, a 4-speed gearbox with the optional overdrive and a twin SE exhaust system. The XK was assembled towards the end of 1959 and then shipped to the USA where it was first registered in 1960. While in the USA, the matching numbers engine received a new cylinder head from a Jaguar Mark VII and the coachwork was repainted many years ago together with the restoration of the interior. The Virginia title indicates that the elegant coupé was in the same ownership from November 1979 to May 2010, before, in September of the same year, it was taken over by a Swiss enthusiast. In November 2010 the Jaguar was imported into Switzerland and parked in the new owner’s collection. In October 2018, the XK was acquired by the next collector who added the car to his private exhibition. Today the Jaguar presents itself in fair to good condition. The engine runs and the car is basically driveable though many years of inactivity certainly will require a careful recommissioning. The car will be sold with the US title and the Swiss customs clearance.
