Description of 1956 Jaguar XK140MC Roadster |
When it comes to elegance, Jaguar is at the top of the list. Their design has always brought upon feelings of class and prestige. In 1954, Jaguar launched the XK 140, which was even more refined than its XK 120 predecessor. The major engineering upgrades were the change to rack-and-pinion steering and the repositioning of the engine, firewall, and dash 3 inches forward. This gives the driver an additional three inches (76 mm) of legroom which is much appreciated for taller drivers. This 1956 Jaguar XK 140 MC roadster we have at Black Horse Garage has many desirable options including the C-type head, wire wheels, crankshaft damper, dual exhaust, fog lights, and windshield wipers. These cars are also surprisingly fast. They have had top speeds recorded in excess of 120 mph and could record a 0-60 mph time in just over 8 seconds. This specific automobile has been well-maintained over its 64 years and has been recently fully serviced at Black Horse Garage this year. The car comes with all its service and restoration records to show the care it has received over the years. Due to its upkeep, it is a ready to enjoy turn key vehicle! The exterior is covered in a stunning Jaguar Cotswold Blue color. The grey leather interior compliments it nicely for a very rare and desirable color combination. All of this, along with brand new whitewall Firestone tires will make you the envy of everyone you drive by. This fine 1956 Jaguar XK 140 MC is ready for a concours d’elegance or for any number of touring events. No matter where you take it, you will be the center of attention among other prestigious auto enthusiasts. For more information and details, call John at 888-475-6964. The car is at our facility and we invite any interested party to come have a look. |
