For many, the definitive Jaguar sports Saloon, the MkII was introduced in October 1959. A peerless blend of elegance and muscularity, its sleek lines clothed an evolution of the Coventry marque's first monocoque design. Powered by derivatives of the same XK DOHC straight-six engine that had swept Jaguar to five Le Man's victories, the MkII was quick to dominate contemporary Saloon car racing. Synonymous with the swinging ‘60s and the hit TV series, Inspector Morse, the Jaguar MkII has been used as a vehicle to transport everyone from dignitaries and politicians to bank robbers and the criminal select. When launched, traditional Jaguar buyers had no need to feel alienated by the new offering from Coventry as the interior was up to their usual standards with leather and walnut being the order of the day. With 112bhp available, the 2.4 was not overly burdened with pace so, importantly, coupled with a manual gearbox it would be the more frugal of the range.

Finished in White complemented to a Red interior, 'KAN 494D' is a manual gearbox with overdrive example. Understood to have been subject to a degree of previous restoration work, the Jaguar is offered with a good history file, with a collection of old invoices, MOT certificates and a current V5C document. Fitted with wire wheels, 'KAN 494D' was previously subject to a ‘Category C Insurance Loss' in 2011, however, it was subsequently repaired with evidence in the history file of the repair work that was carried out.
