Lot 47
Estimate £20000 - 24000
Mileage 36000

Trim Colour GREY/BLUE
Chassis No 772268BW

M.O.T SEPT 2007
We are very pleased to offer what is probably the best example available anywhere of a Mark IX saloon which dates from 1960. The car has been featured in the Jaguar Drivers Club Magazine and in that article, a copy of which is included in the history file, it traces its entire history. It has completed a mere 36000 miles from new and naturally comes with the 3781cc six cylinder engine and the automatic transmission.
The present titled owner acquired the car three years ago and embarked upon a total refurbishment at a cost in excess of some ú20,000. It was stripped to bare metal and repainted in Dark Blue, a wonderful colour, it had new chrome, new woodwork, a new headlining, all the instrumentation was checked and repaired where necessary, including both the clocks, it was converted to run on unleaded fuel, new radial tyres were fitted and the tool kit was added to so it is complete.
No detail was overlooked by this most fastidious of owners and today you can be the beneficiary of all that dedication. Please Note: This lot is accompanied by a specially commissioned, hand-carved, wooden scale model of a MKIX (approximately fifteen inches long) that is reputed to have cost some ú4,000.

PLEASE NOTE: The estimate on this vehicle is now ú20,000 - 24,000.

Spam prevention question (must be answered):
The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
