- Simultaneously with the presentation of the Roadster version of the latest iteration of the XK, the factory announced an S version, equipped with the straigh-port cylinder head and 3 carburettors, enabling it to claim 250 bhp instead of the original 210! Only 888 3.4 S Roadsters will be produced.
- Our example was delivered new via the Jaguar Cars dealerships in New York on 28 October 1958 in this elegant black with red leather interior and grey soft top. Its first owner was a doctor from New Orleans, who had the taste to take his car in the extremely rare S version, with Roadster bodywork!
- At the end of 2010, the car joined the collection of its current owner, alongside a Bugatti Type 51! This lover of beautiful things will never stop improving his car: upholstery in 2012, complete overhaul of the engine in 2014, refurbishment of the gearbox and fitting of power steering in 2016... More than €40,000 will be invested over time!
- Today, the car is running perfectly well, despite having been used very little in recent months. Its 6-cylinder engine sounds wonderful, the gearbox is smooth (with a slight squeak from the clutch at times), the braking system works normally, and the power steering makes everything easy. Cosmetically, the bodywork is very nice (slight blistering on the bonnet), as is the upholstery, which is simply free of any noticeable defects!
- This is a Jaguar Roadster in its ultimate version, and in its most elegant bodywork and colour combination! Presented with a very attractive valuation, this is the ideal way to end the winter and start the summer...
