FRANCE - Cairanne (84)
Our example is a roadster, more precisely, an OTS (Open Two Seater) SE (Special Equipment) version. This XK120 has benefited from a complete restoration. It is in perfect running order. This XK120 OTS Special Equipment was delivered new to Sunset Boulevard in May 1954. It arrived in France in 2001, and was kept by its first French owner in Haute-Savoie until 2017. On that date, the current owner acquired it and added it to his private collection.
Condition:
General: This XK120 has been fully restored and is in superb condition. The engine is the original one (matching numbers), with twin HD8 carburetors.
Exterior: The bodywork has been fully restored to a very high standard. Some elements have been rebuilt, straightened and adjusted, a work of great finesse. The chrome is sparkling and flawless.
Interior: The same care has been taken in the interior. The entire upholstery has been restored, with exceptional results. The original seats have been rebuilt, and the carpets are new. All green leathers are in perfect condition and all on-board equipment is functional.
Mechanical: The engine has been completely dismantled and rebuilt. It starts and runs very well. The braking and cooling systems have also been restored. The MOSS gearbox performs well, shifting gears with astonishing fluidity.
Underbody: The structure of this XK120 is perfectly sound. The entire assembly has been rebuilt with great attention to detail: even the bolts and nuts are new. The car is fitted with 4 magnificent Michelin Pilote X tires.

It's hard to imagine the impact of the first appearance of the XK 120 "Open Two Seater" at the Earls Court Show in post-war England, where reconstruction was still far from complete and people were still subject to food rationing. The October 1948 show was the first to be held for ten years, and visitors, thirsty for novelty, But it was undeniably the Jaguar stand that won the day, with its strikingly designed sports car prototype and brand-new "XK" six-cylinder engine promising 120 mph (or close to the 200 km/h speed that was fantastical at the time). The rest is history: inaugurating the company's new name, an engine that would not be extinguished until five decades later, and a long series of sports and racing cars, the XK 120 is above all the initiator of a legend!
