1954 Jaguar XK120 OTS

The Jaguar XK 120's name was derived from the initial aluminum bodied car being able to achieve 120 miles per hour. The XK 120 was available in three configurations; a (FHS)-Fixed Head Coupe, (DHC)-Drophead Coupe and a (OTS)-Open Two-Seater. The example we have available for sale is the Open Two-Seater.

This beautiful XK 120 is finished in what we believe to be an original factory color, Pastel Blue, and accented with grey leather interior.

Power for this XK 120 is provided by this number matching 3.4-liter DOHC inline six-cylinder motor which is equipped with twin SU carburetors and paired with a four-speed manual gearbox. Currently the mileage indicated is 67,105 miles. The true mileage is unknown.

The undercarriage is well detailed and clean of any apparent corrosion with a structurally sound frame and clean floor pans.

This Jaguar has a new cloth top that has never been fitted to the vehicle.

This XK 120 went through a comprehensive restoration from 2003-2005 apart from the motor. It has been driven very little since. It was recommissioned in September of 2019 which included flushing the old fluids, rebuilding the carburetors, a new clutch and brake adjustments.

This Jaguar XK 120 starts crisply and idles smoothly from the double overhead cam engine which is enhanced by a pleasant growl from the exhaust. Whether you are using this car for vintage rallies or just a pleasurable cruise this Jaguar is a great example of this iconic English sports car.
