The seller offers for sale this 1967 Jaguar Mark 2, powered by a 3.4-litre straight-six engine, paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. Finished in an attractive blue metallic livery over a black leather interior with polished wood trim, this right-hand drive Mark 2 stands out with the addition of a sliding sunroof and a set of period-correct wire wheels. According to the seller, the engine and gearbox both run well, with only limited technical fettling required to bring the car fully up to scratch, making this an appealing prospect for an owner keen to finish the finer details themselves.

Launched in 1959 as a replacement for the earlier 2.4 and 3.4 Litre saloons, the Jaguar Mark 2 quickly became one of the definitive sports saloons of its era, embodying Sir William Lyons’ famous maxim of “grace, pace and space”. Offered with a choice of 2.4, 3.4 and 3.8-litre versions of Jaguar’s celebrated XK straight-six engine, the Mark 2 combined genuine performance with an unmistakably elegant cabin of leather and walnut veneer. The 3.4-litre version fitted to this car strikes a fine balance between spirited performance and everyday usability, and remains one of the most sought-after derivatives among collectors today.

Behind the wheel, the Mark 2 offers a wonderfully evocative driving experience, with the thrum of the XK engine, positive four-speed manual gearchange and surprisingly capable four-wheel disc brakes that were considered class-leading at the time of the car’s launch. Inside, the Mark 2’s cabin remains one of the most charming of any 1960s saloon, with a full width wooden dashboard, comprehensive instrumentation and generous leather seating for four. With its striking colour combination, sunroof and wire wheels, this Mark 2 offers a distinctive and characterful entry into Jaguar ownership.
