1951 Jaguar Mark V 3½-Litre Drophead Coupe LHD: One of fewer than 600 DHCs built in Left-Hand Drive



This desirable 1951 Jaguar Mark V 3 1/2-Litre Drophead Coupe is a rare Right-Hand Drive model and an excellent original car. Black and burgundy with red interior. Mechanically sound, the car runs and drives well and comes accompanied by factory tools. A very straight and solid example thats highly original. The Jaguar Mark V debuted in 1948 at the London Motor Show, and it retained a stylistic link to the beloved pre-war SS cars with its classic William Lyons curves, but it was otherwise nearly all new. Few people had the chance to own the dropheads, because only 1,005 were built. The Mark V would be in production for three years, offered as both a four-door saloon and two-door drophead coupe. The drophead coupe was already considerably scarcer in numbers, and it was clearly a car for the performance enthusiast, as almost all, 977 of 1,005, were built with the larger, more powerful 3½-liter engine. One could say that the drophead coupe was the XK120 for the sportsman who had a family. This is a wonderful example of the most desirable Mark V Jaguar. When it comes to traditional British motoring, no car better combines style and comfort than the Jaguar Mark V.
