This XK120 was produced in November 1953 according to the Heritage Trust Certificate. The Jaguar was shipped from the plant a month later and shipped to Jaguar importer Charles Hornburg in Los Angeles, California. This XK120 remained in the United States until 1992 when it was sold and then exported to Portugal.
Once in Portugal, the car was restored in great detail by removing the body from the chassis and rebuilding it.

The Jaguar is richly documented, it has a thick folder with various invoices, photos and detailed documentation of the restoration, a Heritage Trust Certificate, a FIVA Identity Card, etc.

The car was subsequently exported from Portugal to Greece in 2017 and taken over by the then owner. Both the exterior and the interior are in excellent condition.
The Jaguar has benefitted from recent maintenance, including an overhaul of the brakes and carburettors, a new fuel pump and the new liquids.
