In the Autumn of 1967, the MkII range - less the discontinued 3.8 - morphed into the interim 240 and 340 models intended to bridge the gap prior to the launch of the XJ6 in September 1968. The 240 continued as a budget model until April 1969; its price of £1364 being only £20 more expensive than the first 2.4 in 1956. Output was increased from 120 bhp at 5,750 rpm to 133 bhp at 5,500 rpm and torque was increased. There was a slight reshaping of the rear body and slimmer bumpers with over-riders were fitted. The economies of the new models included replacement of leather upholstery with Ambla and tufted carpet on the floor.
