Auction description:
An Important Auction of British and Continental Sports & Touring Cars, Motorcycles and Collectors Items Thursday 3rd March 2005
Lot 257
1964/94 Jaguar Mk. II 3.8
Registration no: 888 VRR
Chassis no: 166608DN
Estimate: £18,000-22,000

One of the finest examples Coys has had the pleasure to offer in recent years, 888 VRR was the subject of a no expense spared restoration in 1994, carried out by marque specialists' Autocats Ltd, costing approximately £ 47,000. Photographic details of this accompany the car as well as recent invoices from the same specialist for remedial work totalling a further £5000. It's current state attests to the quality of the original restoration and the time and care that has been lavished upon it since. The car also benefits from a number of modern upgrades including power steering, air conditioning, a handling pack, updated lighting and a 'tracker' which locates the car by satellite should someone take a liking to it! This represents a remarkable opportunity to acquire a fully sorted car that will give years of pleasurable motoring to come.
