SUMMARY

A grown-up Mk 2, the most aspirational saloon car of the period.

DESCRIPTION

  • A stylish development of Jaguar's Mk2 with a more spacious interior, bigger boot and the sophisticated independent rear suspension from the Mk10
  • Powered by the charismatic 210bhp, straight-six 3.4-litre XK unit mated to a 4-speed manual gearbox with the optional Laycock A-type overdrive unit
  • The subject of a documented nut and bolt restoration and engine rebuild from 1995-97
  • Attractively presented in a deep blue with chrome wire wheels wearing 'pencil' whitewalls
  • The Cream leather interior seems to be wearing well. Excellent Walnut veneers and door cappings
  • Supplied with a Heritage Certificate confirming the cars authenticity and matching numbers 
  • Upgrades include electronic ignition, dynamo to alternator upgrade and a spin-off oil filter
  • Despite possessing superior handling, greater range and more interior room than the Mk2, the S-Type has tended to live in the shadow of its sibling although it's undoubtedly a superior car
