Just as Bentley products gained fame from competition exploits in the late nineteen- twenties and thirties, Jaguar also rose to fame post World War II with their XK engined sports cars taking top honours at prestigious events such as Le Mans and their saloon cars (featuring the same XK power-unit) revelling in the rallies of the fifties and sixties, particularly on the Monte Carlo and Alpine contests. Of particular merit were the substantial MkVIIs and MkVIIIs and in 1959 this same platform was updated to become the MkIX. The MkIX was visually very similar to the MkVIII that it replaced, but was much upgraded mechanically, being fitted with a larger 3.8 litre twin cam engine fed by twin SU HD6 carburettors and could be specified with either a four-speed Moss Gearbox or Borg Warner DG Automatic transmission. The MkIX was also the first Jaguar to be fitted with Dunlop four wheel servo assisted disc brakes to aid stopping and the driver's arms were finally aided with power assisted steering as standard. After 10,009 examples were built, the MkIX was replaced by the MkX.

This manual overdrive MkIX is finished in Warwick grey over red leather and walnut trim, and displays only c.31,000 miles on its odometer, which is believed to be the total covered from new. Used as transportation during Pippa Middleton's wedding in 2017 to chauffeur the Princess of Wales and her children, it is understood to have had c.£6,000 spent in recent years with particular attention paid to the engine, fuel system and brakes. Presenting today as a fantastic example of the marque, KTS 848 is offered with a Swansea V5C and comes with an impressive history file dating back to the 1980s when it resided in Scotland where it won third place in the Scottish JDC Concours D'Elegance in 1988.
