Adhering to Sire William Lyons maxim of graceand#44; pace and spaceand#44; the Mark 2 was a beautifuland#44; fast and capable Saloon. The Mark II gained a reputation as a capable car among criminals and law enforcement alike; the 3.8 Liter model being particularly fast with its 220 bhp engine driving the car from 0-60 mph (97 km/h) in 8.5 seconds and to a top speed of 125 mph with enough room for five adults. Popular as getaway carsand#44; they were also employed by the police to patrol British motorways. They were also raced successfully in the European Touring Car Championship. The Mark IIs body linesand#44; derived from the Mark Iand#44; and overall layout proved sufficiently popular over time to provide an inspiration for both the Jaguar S-Type introduced in 1999 and the smaller X-Type debuted in 2001. This matching numbers Mark 2 (Chassis P218126DNand#44; Body S015160and#44; Engine LB6236-8) has only covered 822 miles after a exquisite restoration. It offers a practical opportunity to travel in style with your cohorts. |
