VIN 109840DN

This Jaguar MKII 3.8 is a charismatic and engaging classic British sports sedan, offered from long-term ownership and enhanced with a few choice upgrades.

Under the bonnet sits a naturally aspirated 3.8-litre straight-six, which sends its power to the rear wheels via a retro-fitted five-speed manual transmission.

This example is understood to have originally been a UK-delivered model, which was later imported to Australia, where it has been with the seller for the past 30 years.

The odometer indicates 52,156 miles, though this is not warranted.

Build year: 1961

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

This MKII 3.8 is finished in the timeless shade of Old English White, over a Biscuit leather-trimmed interior, featuring brown carpets, a light wood dashboard and window surrounds, and chrome trim highlights.

It rides on an aftermarket set of 15-inch Performance eight-spoke alloy wheels finished in silver with polished lips, fitted with Goodyear Assurance tyres.

Equipment includes a two-spoke steering wheel, push-out front and rear quarter light windows, elasticated door card pockets, Smiths gauges, and dashboard toggle switches.

This example has been enhanced with a Toyota Supra-sourced five-speed manual gearbox, a Halda Speedpilot rally metre, a Halda rally trip metre, a transmission tunnel-mounted timer, a Mitsubishi-branded stereo, a passenger-side map light, and chrome air filter housings.

The car comes with a jack, a spare wheel, and a Heritage Certificate.

One re-cut ignition key is included.

CONDITION

Specific notes from the seller include: a couple of stone chips on the front-end, and the front seats have been retrimmed.

The car’s last roadworthiness test was conducted on 15 July 2024, which is understood to have resulted in a clean pass.

SERVICE HISTORY

This MkII’s most recent maintenance was performed in March 2025 at around an indicated 52,000 miles by Dave Wilson (a private mechanic), though the seller is not aware of what work was carried out.

The seller notes that the car is serviced every six months.
