1966 Jaguar MK II 3.8 4-Speed

Description

The 1966 Jaguar Mark II represents the second to last year of Jaguar’s iconic sports saloon, first introduced in 1959. Blending luxury with performance, the Mk II offered advanced features for its era, including four-wheel disc brakes and independent front suspension, and buyers could choose from 2.4, 3.4, or the 3.8L XK inline‑six engine, capable of rivaling modern sports cars.

Finished in green paired over light gray upholstery and burl wood interior trim, this 1966 MK II features the top 3.8L engine and four-speed manual transmission with overdrive. Upgrades include larger four-piston caliper brakes and power-assisted rack-and-pinion steering, and standard MK II features such as 15” knock-off wheels and fender mounted mirrors remain in place. Acquired in 2019, the seller reports adding approximately 300 miles during their ownership, and services completed during their ownership are highlighted below.

Located in Missouri, this 1966 Jaguar MK II is now offered with English and Dutch service records, spare parts, and a clean Georgia title in the seller’s name.

Additional Information

From the seller, “I purchased the vehicle from Holland in 2019 and had it shipped to the U.S. that same year. Over the years I have put 300 miles on it. I didn't drive the car much until recently due to being away from home a lot over the years. I fixed things as needed to keep the car running in tip top shape. I did many of the maintenance items and repairs myself. Things that I couldn't do I had a local shop that specializes in British classics handle.”
