  • As the planned new saloon body was not ready for the 1948 Earls Court Motor Show, contemporary Jaguar management decided that the new XK engine would instead be launched in a roadster, the XK 120. Boasting a 3.4-litre, twin-cam inline-six-cylinder engine that made for 160 bhp, the XK 120 could allegedly reach a top speed of 120 mph, making it the fastest production car at the time. In June 1952, the XK 120 could be specified in SE configuration, which produced 180 horsepower when fitted with a C-Type cylinder head. Additionally, it featured wire wheels, upgraded suspension, and dual exhaust.

    The magnificent 1954 Jaguar XK120 SE Roadster featured here is finished in a highly desirable Carmen Red over a tan leather interior and matching folding convertible top. This incredibly low mile, complete numbers matching example was shipped from the factory directly to Los Angeles-based Jaguar distributor Charles Homburg after its completion by the factory on May 21, 1954. It remained in California most of its life until being acquired by famed racecar driver and founding member of the international motor racing research center Michael A. Stott. In Mr. Scott’s care, it was meticulously maintained and sympathetically restored over the years and presents today in an absolutely spectacular condition. We are extremely proud to bring to the market this low-mile investment-grade 1954 Jaguar XK120 SE Roadster. Offered to the most sophisticated collector, investor, or enthusiast who understands and appreciates the investment potential of this great classic.

    Financing

    Finance rates as low as 5.9%.


    We know that classic car financing can pose a unique challenge. Although a vintage or exotic car can be an excellent investment, some financial institutions attempt to apply standard “used car” rules for financing a classic car, which in many cases can make loan approval difficult.


    We work closely with many banking institutions that understand and recognize the collector value of classic cars and view them as an investment, which allows us to help you get the financing you need so that you can have the car you have dreamed of.


    Terms available up to 144 Months


    If you have any questions, feel free to contact us, (314)291-7000 or credit@schmitt.com
