The Jaguar Mark II sedan was a useful and elegant update of the company’s first small unibody sedan, the Mark I of 1955. The modifications resulted in what is often considered to be the best-looking, most compact Jaguar sedan. This is often considered to be one of the first sports wagons of its time. This particular MKII has had several stealthy upgrades that make it a period looking yet very fast cat. The common overheating problems being fixed, electrical gremlins exorcised, and custom AC make this Mk II a road warrior for modern times. Do these upgrades increase the cars value? Will Colin have to break some bad news? Tune in and find out!

As a retired Jaguar schooled technician over in the UK, I was very impressed by the quality of the vehicle, If I win the Lottery this week I will make him an offer 😉.

People should take into consideration that California cars that spend their time in beach cities have lots of rot in them because of the moist salty air. The cars that spend their time in California Inland are perfect. But one's by the beach can be eaten up pretty bad. So be careful.

@thebigpicture2032 Год назад

True but even the ones by the beach are clean underneath. If you’re in the rust belt, those cars are like gold.

I love the MkII, frankly, it might be the first classic car I go after as a father of two school aged kids: the heart of an E-Type, but all four of us can enjoy it. This looks to be one of the finest MkII examples out there.

@marknelson4068 Год назад

OK... added A/C, made some electrical and cooling mods, engine balanced with lightweight flywheel... what else? Would have been nice to have the owner take a couple minutes to point out all the mods he made than having the appraiser just eyeball and guess about everything.

@thebigpicture2032 Год назад

Yes a missed opportunity. You can tell the owner wanted to point out all the mods.

@charlesdalton985 Год назад

Just stunning, and done to an impeccable standard. I’ve never considered one of these, like others have written, if I hit the lottery - this would be on my list. Greatly enjoy the Appraiser series, thank you! ~ Chuck

@kimnorrgren9468 Год назад

Wonderful. My late aunt in Sweden had one in this gold sand metallic, it was a dream. Many years after she had sold it, she went to a vet with her dog. He looked at the dog and then he was asking for her name and information for the invoice, he stopped writing when she said her surname. He asked if she had owned a Jaguar once. She said I have owned two, oh dear the vet said, please come with me. In the same building as his clinic he had his garage. They went into the garage and there stood my aunts 3.8 L in totally restored condition. She was a tough woman, due to the circumstances as a child she fled in a rowing boat from an Estonian island during the end of WW2 together with her family of seven to Sweden. She however softened and needed a Kleenex when she re-joined in the Jag for a tour with the vet. R.I.P Helena N. Note All cars in Sweden had an owner name sign in the car at this time, and it was still in the car when the vet bought it.

@arevee9429 Год назад

Gorgeous, and I was shocked to hear the owner say he thought it was worth 80K.

As the early Jaguar adverts stated: Grace, Space and Pace. With all his upgrades and work, it would be more than true today.

I want one. Especially if you know the history both of the company and the fact this was THE choice of the day for UK crooks looking to outrun the plod after a heist, you know how special the Mark 2 is. This is the aforementioned turned up past 11. Gorgeous car, thank you to Hagerty for featuring it. Cheers! 🖖😎👍

@markcollins457 Год назад

I love restomods the romance of such a classic ride with the correct touch can be a long term keeper, everyone remembers some classic car but forgets having to got to Napa or Pep Boys for plugs points & condenser. For what they cost to restore "WHY NOT" make it drivable for every day . What a awesome car.

@chesspiece81 Год назад

It is certainly a pretty car but definitely not something I have ever lusted after or desired. The Jaguar E type, absolutely or the XJSS but these are obvious special but for a "hot rod" sedan since I am a red-blooded American I might rather have a GM sedan with a LSA or LT4 swap and 6 speed with suspension, brakes, and wheels. They made several sedans that look very close to the more popular 2 door models.

@3rdworldgarage450 Год назад

I see a few minor changes, not a hatchet job. Frankly, I would prefer this over a completely original car since it is more usable. Air conditioning just makes it driveable in summer, and the triple carb setup looks great. Also, these cars were not designed to cool in the southern US, so the cooling mods are a necessity for the car to be driven.
