Description

The 1956 Jaguar MK1 marked the beginning of Jaguar's compact sports sedan line and was produced between 1955 and 1959. Officially designated the Jaguar 2.4 Litre and later also available with a 3.4-litre engine, this model was notable for its monocoque body and rounded lines. The MK1 was equipped with independent front suspension, drum brakes all round and a leaf spring rear axle. Combined with the six-cylinder engine that originated in the XK series, the model formed a bridge between sporty performance and a luxurious appearance, making it attractive to both business and private drivers.

The Jaguar MK1 in this version was often chosen as a sporty sedan with solid performance. The 2.4-litre engine produced around 112 hp when introduced, coupled with a four-speed manual transmission with optional overdrive. The car had an interior that was then equipped with wood accents and leather upholstery, typical of the British style of the 1950s. This example dates from the first year of production and thus has a place in the early phase of Jaguar's sedan development. To get a good impression of the lot, we advise you to come to the viewing day.
