Jaguar MKII 3.8
The Mark II or Mk II was a four-door sports sedan released by Jaguar in 1959 as the successor to the Mark I, featuring 2,4 and 3,4-liter engines. The bodywork was improved and modified in a few details. From then on, disc brakes on all four wheels were standard. The Mark II 2.4 with a displacement of 2483 cm³ now produced 120 hp, the 3.4 delivered 210 hp, and the newly added 3.8 of 3781 cm³ produced 220 hp. The rear wheels were driven via a four-speed gearbox (optionally with overdrive or a three-speed automatic). Top speeds were 155 and 195 km/h respectively. Until 1967, 25.173 examples of the 2,4-liter, 28.663 of the 3,4-liter, and 30.140 of the 3,8-liter were built. By 1969, an additional 4446 units of the 240, 2788 units of the 340 (with 210 hp), and 12 with the 3,8-liter engine (with 220 hp) were produced. The MKII presented here has been completely restored to the highest standard at Real Car in Ochten. It is a beautiful car with a few minor changes compared to the original.

The MKII presented here has been completely restored at Real Car in Ochten to the highest level. It is a beautiful car with a few minor changes compared to the original. The automatic gearbox has been replaced by a better-shifting box from an XJ6 and the seats have also been slightly upgraded with headrests. Both things contribute to better drivability. The body is two-tone, dark red on top and black on the sides, which gives a very chic look. Everything in the car works and the polished wood looks completely new as does the entire appearance of the car. A very chic MKII in the popular 3.8 version.
