Lot details Registration No: Un-Reg Chassis No: 731293 Mot Expiry: None
The MKVII Jaguar was launched at the 1950 London Motorshow. A big, confident-looking four-door sports Saloon, it was a clever blend of old and new. Old, was the chassis, which was borrowed from the outgoing MKV model, while new was the streamlined body. Gone too was the MKV's pre-war engine and in its place came a 160bhp 3.4-litre version of Jaguar's stunning new DOHC XK straight-six unit. 'UMY 689' is a left-hand drive 1952 example finished in Beige and Brown with a Tan-coloured hide interior. Equipped with the early studless cam cover engine, it was imported from Virginia USA, for which all duties have been paid. In storage for over 30 years it is now ripe for restoration.
