1965 Jaguar Mk 2 3.4
Presents beautifully
Two-owner car
When you are noting a missing tiny red repeater lens atop the front left indicator housing as the only immediately obvious flaw with this restored 1965 Jaguar Mk 2, then you know it’s a good car. This 3.4-engined automatic was regularly serviced by our vendor, who then purchased the car in the 1980s from its original well-known Box Hill (Melbourne) jeweler owner. Today, it presents very nicely in dark green with tan (almost tabac) trim. Having been redone, its paintwork is lovely, as is its chrome, and the woodwork inside has been refurbished to match the high quality of the leather and matching carpets. It has the original period radio, sits on steel wheels with hubcaps (no wires here) and indicates 37,296 miles (at the time of cataloguing). The auto choke has been converted to manual and a stainless steel muffler and exhaust system is now fitted. The Mk 2 comes with an Owner’s manual, jack and tool kit. In short, this is a lovely car with nothing to do – other than that aforementioned repeater lens! – except enjoy what should be an easy and enjoyable classic to own. The 1965 Jaguar Mk 2 3.4 is being sold here unregistered.
