Kickdown's Take
by Moritz NiemannThis XK 150 is an S-model with 254 hp, which is quite a feat for a sports car from the 1950s. The restored Jaguar impresses with its attractive color combination, its immaculate condition, and the coveted OTS body style.

Comments of this past auction
Technik: Auffälligste Änderungen an den Karosserien waren die einteilige Panorama-Windschutzscheibe, der entfallene Hüftschwung der Vorgängermodelle, die durchgehende Stoßstange hinten und die Jaguar-Figur auf der Motorhaube. Ab 1958 wurde auch wieder der zweisitzige Roadster OTS (Open Two Seater) angeboten, der nun erstmals Kurbelscheiben an den Türen hatte. Der XK 150 war in den Farben Carmen-Rot, Rot, Weinrot, Imperial-Kastanienbraun, Schwarz, Cornish-Grau, Nebelgrau, Perlgrau, Weiß, Cotswold-Blau, Indigoblau, Sherwood-Grün und British Racing Green erhältlich.
