Introduced in 1956, the Jaguar XK140 DHC represented an important evolution in Jaguar's iconic XK series. This convertible, with its elegant lines and sporty appearance, was often praised for its combination of style and performance. A 3.4-liter six-in-line engine enabled the XK140 DHC to achieve impressive speed, while independent front and rear suspensions provided a comfortable driving experience. The model also offered more space and convenience compared to its predecessor, the XK120, which contributed to its popularity among car enthusiasts.
During its production period until 1957, the XK140 DHC became a symbol of British luxury and craftsmanship. The car was attractive not only to motorists, but also to rally and sporting events, where its performance was noted. The combination of aesthetics and engineering made the XK140 DHC a desirable model among collectors. With a rich history and timeless design, this car remains an interesting object for classic vehicle enthusiasts. To get a good idea of the lot, we advise you to come to the viewing day.
