Jaguar XK120 Owner view

The owner of the Jaguar XK120 in our feature has owned the car for over 15 years. He’s been a fan of the model for many years, having owned several. The Jaguar XK120 has an excellent and enthusiastic owners club following and prior to taking these pictures the car had recently completed a tour of Italy.

“I love the beautiful flowing lines of the Jaguar XK120. Driving one is an old-fashioned motoring experience – slotted windows, bad hood and brakes but it is great fun”
