Car to be at auction 2/23

Auction description:

Seller house

Location: The Market HQ, Abingdon, United Kingdom

Seller Type: Private

Odometer Reading: 12268 kms

Chassis Number: 738297DN

Engine: 3442

Gearbox: Manual

Steering position: Left-hand drive

Colour: Maroon

Interior: Red Leather

Estimated Price: £20,000 - £28,000

This 1954 LHD manual Jaguar Mark VII M comes with little history and no service records beyond what you see in the documents section.

It does, however, come with V5 from DVLA and a Jaguar Heritage certificate. There's also the former owner’s original copy of a State of Ohio registration card dated 1999.

We believe it has been on static display in a private collection since 2012.

It does not currently start or run, so our appraisal of it is entirely based on its cosmetic appearance.

It has just 12,268 miles on its odometer.

It is maroon with a maroon/dark red interior.

On the Outside

In general, the bodywork is pretty good and the car is free of any significant dinks, dents and creases.

The paintwork, too, is fairly decent, as is the chrome work.

But it’s not without issues.

On the driver’s side there are scratches on the front wing and scuffs on the doors.

There are also scuffs and paint chips on the passenger doors and the front wing near the lights.

There are stone chips on the leading edges of the rear wheel arches on both sides.

The sun roof opens but doesn’t close properly at the rear.

On the Inside

The condition of the interior is more or less a match for its external condition.

The red leather upholstery is in very decent condition, front and back, and is not creased, cracked or otherwise damaged except for a strip of unattached leather at the side of the driver’s seat.

The headlining is stained and rather ‘crispy’ to the touch.

Most of the wood is good, too, although there is a small piece missing from the dashboard.

There is a split to the leather on the rear, passenger-side armrest.

The steering wheel, gear selector and instruments look to be in fair condition, although we can’t make any claims about the functionality of switches, knobs, levers, toggles, buttons, dials or other electrics as we haven’t started or driven the car.

Opening the boot reveals that the floor is severely corroded and is holed in places.

Underneath

The clean, dry engine and engine bay look fine and the undersides of the car, although not free from rust, would appear to have plenty of structural integrity.

With a battery connected, the dash lights up and the engine spins willingly from the starter motor. Our mechanic is taking a look at it this week to see if the 'old girl' will start for us.

History Highlights

This car comes with no original history and no service records.

It does come with a V5 and a Jaguar Heritage certificate.

It is a matching numbers and very original car.
