Description from the seller
GENERAL
This Jaguar XK150 Cabriolet is a 1960 example that represents the final evolution of the legendary XK series before the arrival of the E-Type. The vehicle underwent a comprehensive restoration 20 years ago by the renowned specialist Autostorica. During the process, it was decided to enhance its performance by installing a five-speed gearbox and disc brakes—upgrades that significantly improve its capabilities over the original factory specification. Its history is particularly distinctive: after being restored, it was presented as a retirement gift to a former president of Andorra, who drove it regularly for fifteen years. It was later acquired by a Spanish collector, who has kept it in exceptional mechanical and cosmetic condition.
BODYWORK AND PAINT
The vehicle's exterior is imposing and reflects meticulous care. Approximately two years ago, it underwent a full polishing process during which the minor flaws associated with the passage of time were addressed. The paintwork now has a deep shine and is virtually free of imperfections, highlighting the classic curves of the Cabriolet body. Work carried out by its last owner has ensured that the car's appearance lives up to its historical significance.
MECHANICALS
The heart of this Jaguar was completely restored two decades ago and has covered only around 10,000 kilometers since, leaving the engine in excellent condition. It has recently received a comprehensive service, including an oil and filter change, to ensure its reliability. The five-speed gearbox is one of this car's main highlights, allowing smooth, precise shifts with no noise or resistance in any gear. The mechanical package is designed to deliver a superior and dependable driving experience.
INTERIOR
The cabin was completely refurbished during the restoration using top-quality materials, notably a full brown leather upholstery that lends it timeless warmth and elegance. Both the seats and carpets show minimal wear from considerate use and remain in outstanding condition. The interior combines the distinction of Jaguar's original design with the freshness of materials that have been carefully maintained since installation.
DOCUMENTATION
The vehicle has a clear ownership history, notably its institutional provenance in Andorra and its subsequent stewardship in a private collection in Spain. The documented restoration by Autostorica and the mechanical upgrades are part of this car's historical value. Its current comprehensive state of maintenance ensures that it is not merely a showpiece, but a vehicle ready to be driven on the road with complete confidence.
COLLECTION
The car is currently located in Madrid, Spain. Once the vehicle has been awarded to its new owner, a 20-day period of free storage is offered. This gives the new owner time to conveniently and safely arrange all the necessary procedures for collecting and transporting the car to its new destination.
OTHER INFORMATION
The underside of the vehicle is in very good condition. Thanks to the comprehensive restoration carried out previously, the structure was completely renewed and shows no signs of deep rust. There is only some surface rust on specific components, which is entirely normal and consistent with the car's road use. This transparent account of its structural condition confirms that it is a solid, very well-preserved example.
