Jaguar XK 120 DHC

For sale is a beautiful 1953 Jaguar XK 120 Drophead Coupé (DHC) in classic green with red leather interior.

A key highlight of this vehicle is its long-standing ownership history: the Jaguar has been in its current family ownership since 2003, for over 20 years. Kept as a collector's item and garage-stored, it presents itself today in very good, well-maintained condition.

The XK 120 is ready to drive immediately, comes with a German registration including historic plates (H-Kennzeichen), and holds a valid technical inspection (HU) until 10/2026. No defects were found during the last inspection.

A recent classic-analytics Professional-Check from January 2025 certifies the vehicle with an overall condition grade of 2. The estimated market value is €100,000, with a replacement value of €114,000.

The independent evaluation from January 2025 is particularly telling. The expert describes the vehicle as being in very good technical and cosmetic condition, appropriate for its age and mileage.

The report explicitly notes that no corrosion was found on the components or frame. According to the valuation, the seating shows virtually no signs of wear. It is also documented that the original accessories are still present and that the vehicle underwent an extensive, period-correct restoration.

– Sheet metal: 2

– Seals / Rubber parts: 2
– Glass: 2
– Tires: 2
– Passenger compartment: 2-
– Engine compartment: 2
