Rare Alloy-Bodied Jaguar XK120 Is Selling At Worldwide Auctioneers This Weekend

This ultra rare Jag is one of only 240.


Jaguar has always been the front runner in the lineup of classic cars from a European manufacturer. Models like the E-Type and XJ have stunned enthusiasts everywhere with their curvy body lines and great performance. This particular vehicle is a great example of everything the brand was, and is still, good at. This is an XK120 and if you know that name then you probably can see where this is going.

First of all, this is a car built in 1949 which, among other things, is crazy on its own. The structural strength a car must have to be this well maintained after so many years is intense to say the least. Another cool feature is the Alloy finish on the body, a reflective reminder of the brand’s high value and attractive style. All of these options made it a great looker back in the day but what about the inside?

Thanks to the roadster top, we can clearly see a beautiful red interior with all sorts of materials, including leather, that add comfort and style. If you’re thinking that you’ve never seen a car like this, that’s because only 240 aluminum bodied roadsters were ever made, ensuring it’ll keep its value for the foreseeable future. Topping all of this off is a beautiful maintenance, service, and restoration totaling $26,000. Overall, it’s a luxurious classic car that’ll keep attention wherever it goes but the real question is, could you be its next driver?

For all those enthusiasts and collectors eager to buy and sell great cars this spring, the road leads right back to Auburn, Indiana, the original “Classic Car Capital of the World” and birthplace of the collector car auction industry in America.

Our next catalogue sale is The Enthusiast Auction taking place from April 29 at our Indiana headquarters. Many consignments will be offered at no reserve, including stellar car and memorabilia collections. This auction will be presented as a simultaneous live and online event. Join us!
