Description

• Original RHD
• Beautifully Restored

This beautifully restored XK120 OTS is an original RHD, Jaguar made only 1,170 examples.
This car was delivered new in January 1954 to its first Swiss owner via the famous distributor Emile Frey of Zurich.
It remained in Switzerland until around 1980 when it moved to France, forming part of a major collection in Lyon.
The car saw very little use over the next 40 years when it was acquired by an enthusiast in Northern France who commissioned a full, and very costly, restoration returning the car to its original specification.
As such this desirable original RHD now presents beautifully in its correct Birch Grey colour with a fabulous red interior, chrome wheel embellishers and spotlights. It comes with spats, hood and side screens and benefits from an alternator conversion and additional cooling fan. With its original engine block and drum brakes still fitted it is potentially eligible for several historic events and would make a delightful touring car.
