Selling a 1956 Jaguar XK140

 

The 1956 Jaguar XK140 release was an important year in the Jaguar XK140 series, as it was the first time this car was offered with an automatic transmission. The interior of the 1956 XK140 was also improved during this release, with more than three inches of legroom added to accommodate taller drivers. To accomplish this, Jaguar moved the engine, firewall, and dash forward. This arrangement seemed to overlook battery placement, however. Now located deeply inside the wing on the inlet side, the battery became almost impossible to replace. Buyers have seemed to overlook this little detail throughout the years in exchange for impeccable engineering, luxurious appointments, and unmatched power and grace. Many of today’s collectors are looking for quality restorations as well as projects they can take on themselves. If you are selling, be sure to list any restoration work that has been completed, or any accompanying parts and components.

The 1956 Jaguar XK140 was available in three body styles: the Open Two-Seater Roadster, the Drop Head Coupe, and the Fixed Head Coupe.
