A rare XK120 from the Jaguar Classic Collection is now for sale from Jaguar Classic Works in Coventry, England, after successfully completing the inaugural 1000 Miglia Experience UAE.
The 1950 Jaguar XK120 Open Two-Seater is offered as an approved Works Legend and finished in Cream with Black soft top and Biscuit and Red interior.
The immaculately restored example has been meticulously maintained since joining the Jaguar Classic Collection, and once belonged to Stuart Lightfoot, a founding member and Competitions Secretary of the Jaguar Drivers’ Club, formed in June 1956.
As part of Jaguar Classic’s partnership with the 1000 Miglia Experience UAE, both Jaguar C-type and D-type Continuation models were displayed for the first time in the UAE including at the event’s awards ceremony.
Matthew Bailey, Senior Business Development Manager, Jaguar Land Rover Classic, said: “The Mille Miglia is an iconic race and it was a real privilege to take part in the inaugural 1000 Miglia Experience UAE with a beautiful vehicle prepared for the event by our experts at Jaguar Classic Works. The unique XK120 has a real pedigree and is now available to purchase through our Works Legends programme, and it promises to be a fantastic investment for one of our clients.”
In addition, British model and life-long Jaguar enthusiast, David Gandy, also participated in his own 1954 Jaguar XK120, which was renovated to a bespoke specification by Jaguar Classic in 2019. His distinctive XK120 underwent a 2,700-hour rebuild with unique upgrades to make it race-ready, with more power and enhanced durability from its 3.4-litre in-line six-cylinder engine. It is finished in Solid Black with Aged Saddle tan leather interior in a unique lattice design.
