Lot 341: 1967 Jaguar 420 Saloon

This No Reserve Jaguar, a 420 in blue which was made at the Jaguar Browns Lane works in 1967, has particularly good history on file. For apart from a modern V5 and an old buff logbook, a full twelve months tax on the screen and a current MOT valid until 2006, there is an impressive run of some seventeen old MOTs going back to 1972 which confirm that the overall mileage for the four-door saloon is likely to have been circa 60,000. Also with the car are various brochures, original handbooks and owner's wallet as well as some recent bills detailing work carried out.Rather unfairly, in our view, the 420 has tended to be one of the most underrated of Jaguar models. Just consider the impressive spec of YNK 4F - 4.2-litre 6-cylinder XK engine, automatic transmission, power-assisted steering, wire wheels, blue leather seats, lovely wood and Wilton carpets. Potentially inexpensive too.
