The Jaguar XK150 Fixed Head Coupe, produced between 1957 and 1961, is a quintessential British sports car that embodies elegance and performance. Building on the legacy of its predecessors, the XK120 and XK140, the XK150 introduced several enhancements while retaining the timeless design that Jaguar is renowned for. Visually, the XK150 is striking, featuring a smooth, flowing silhouette characterized by its rounded contours and chrome detailing. The coupe variant offers a more streamlined profile compared to its open-top counterparts, enhancing its sporty appearance. Under the bonnet the XK150 is powered by a robust 3.4-litre inline-six engine, capable of producing 190 horsepower. This engine provides exhilarating performance, allowing the coupe to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just over eight seconds—an impressive feat for its time. For those seeking even more power, the optional 3.8-litre engine boosts output to 220 horsepower, further enhancing the driving experience. Coupled with a four-speed manual transmission (with an optional automatic), the XK150 delivers a dynamic and engaging ride. The interior of the XK150 is a blend of luxury and sportiness, featuring rich leather upholstery, wood veneer accents, and a driver-focused dashboard. Spacious for a sports car, the cabin offers comfort without sacrificing the exhilarating feel of driving. Despite its classic appeal, the XK150 was equipped with modern conveniences for its era, including disc brakes and a refined suspension system, ensuring both safety and handling precision.

This XK150 is finished in the delightful colour combination of Carmen Red with Biscuit leather interior. As with a lot of these examples, this car was originally a U.S. car and was repatriated to the UK in 1990. Clearly restoration work has been carried out and this appears to have been done to a high standard, the paint finish in particular is of a high quality. The car comes with a good history file including details of a full strip down to a bare shell, a full re-chrome, and re-assembly with the engine being fully rebuilt and the suspension being re-assembled using Polybushes, new ball joints and a brake upgrade with new discs and Coopercraft front calipers. The automatic gearbox has been changed for an all-synchro Jaguar four-speed unit with overdrive, this is mated to a 3.8 litre engine offering brisk performance by any standard. Extra gauges have been tastefully fitted beneath the centre dashboard by the fastidious vendor. Now in right hand drive guise this Jaguar is supplied with a V5C registration document. The XK150 Fixed Head Coupe is celebrated by collectors and enthusiasts alike, cherished not only for its stunning design and engineering excellence but also as a symbol of an era when British craftsmanship flourished. It remains a true classic that captivates the hearts of car lovers around the world. Consigned by Stewart Banks.
