1965 JAGUAR MK11 3.8

MODEL OVERVIEW:

The Jaguar Mk II 3.8, produced between 1959 and 1967, is widely regarded as one of the most iconic British sports saloons of the 1960s. Combining elegance, luxury, and performance, it was powered by Jaguar’s legendary 3.8-litre XK inline-six engine, delivering around 220 horsepower and capable of propelling the car to over 120 mph – making it one of the fastest four-door sedans of its era.

Its blend of refined interior appointments, such as leather upholstery, rich walnut trim, and spacious rear seating, contrasted with its raw performance, earning it a reputation as both a gentleman’s express and the getaway car of choice for bank robbers in Britain. In Australia, the Mk II 3.8 proved formidable, dominating Australian Touring Car racing with Bob Jane in the early sixties.
