Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Dunlop style centerlock alloy wheels, XJ6 brakes, upgraded suspension, Getrag 5 speed. US car converted to RHD with a succession of upgrades and repairs that offers little confidence about its construction but offering the promise of some impressive performance and handling once its many modifications are reconciled. Body and interior restored in 2001.

Market commentary

One of the most desirable of all XKEs, let down by an apparently uncoordinated series of hop ups and accordingly discounted by astute bidders. The seller got all this car was worth and should be satisfied.
