Description from the seller
Magnificent 1959 Jaguar XK 150 S Coupe, FHC, in superb condition in its beautiful Old English White dress, original color paint in excellent condition. Timeless elegance and sportiness, it embodies the essence of British grand touring sportiness.
With its streamlined and aerodynamic design and its striking front, the XK 150 returned to the stylistic line of its predecessors while introducing a modernized body with a higher waistline and widened track.
Refined 2+2 interior with dark red leather upholstery for the seats and matching faux leather for the dashboard and trim, red velour carpeting in excellent condition.
This car has always been well maintained and has undergone good cosmetic and mechanical renovations as well.
It is equipped with an excellent 3.8-liter inline 6-cylinder engine (3,781 cm3) Sport version, delivering 265 hp SAE at 5,500 rpm. Twin overhead camshaft, 7-main bearing crankshaft, equipped with 3 SU HD8 double-barrel carburetors, sport version.
Moss 4-speed gearbox with overdrive
Rack-and-pinion steering.
Brakes: Dunlop four-wheel hydraulic-discs.
Center-lock steel wire wheels.
Factory top speed: 220 km/h
This car was featured in a report in the RETROVISEUR magazine in December 2020.
On the road is where the XK 150 FHC showed its full potential. With a top speed of over 200 km/h, it was among the fastest production cars of its era. But raw performance wasn’t the only thing that impressed— the XK 150 also offered exceptional driving stability for its time and a high level of comfort, making it equally suited to sporty driving and long-distance journeys.
Its pristine condition makes it a car ready to hit the road or to enrich a collection.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
