Auction description:
VINTAGE AND CLASSIC CARS, MOTORCYCLES AND AUTOMOBILIA SATURDAY 2ND OCTOBER 2004
Lot No 621
1967 Jaguar 420 Four Door Saloon, under 26,000 miles from new
Registration Number: MVT 310E
Chassis Number: PIF3271BW
Engine Number: 7F 4993-8
According to the vendor, this particular example is in very good overall condition as befits a car that has not only been awarded second place in a Jaguar Drivers’ Club Concours D’Elegance but also won the ‘chairman’s choice’ award at XJ in 2002. Having covered less than 26,000 miles from new (validated by its comprehensive history file), it retains its original, complete tool kit. Fitted with Marles variomatic power steering, Borg Warner three speed automatic gearbox, chrome wire wheels, stainless steel exhaust and Jaguar seat belts to the rear, this 420 also has a wind up aerial for the radio. The subject of a bare metal re-spray seventeen years ago during which all its original panels were retained, it is finished in honey beige. To the interior, the red leather upholstery, wood veneers and headlining are all original (in accordance with his own personal taste the previous owner substituted S-type veneers on the door top rolls but the car’s own excellent pieces accompany it should a new keeper wish to reinstate them). Featured in J. Taylor’s book ‘420 S-Type, The Complete Story’, MVT 310E also graced the front cover of Popular Classics in November 1991. Offered for sale with V5 registration document, Heritage Certificate, extensive history file and MOT to 30th May 2005
Estimate: £11,500-13,500 Result: £11000
