For the eyes of many classic auto enthusiasts, very few vehicles are prettier than the XK120 and XK140 Jaguars. The Jaguar XK140 is the successor to the XK120 and used the same basic architecture featuring few interior and exterior upgrades. Jaguar was still riding high from victories at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, so when the XK140 was ready to hit the market, Jaguar didn't think twice about using it as their selling point. It was introduced in 1954 as a 1955 model, making this 1955 Jaguar XK140 Drop head Coupe one of the debuting cars in the lineup. This gorgeous car has received an excellent full frame off restoration and has only 6,935 miles completed since then.

One of Jaguar Car’s sleekest and most timeless modern models with definite future classic status has got to be the first-generation XK.

Offered in coupe and convertible forms, the XK could be had with six or eight cylinder power. Naturally, the latter is what most people want, and it’s what we have here. Behold, a 2003 Jaguar XK8 Coupe that’s got under 131,000 healthy miles to its name. That is an indicator of two things. One, this is a car that is very nice indeed to drive.
