This Jaguar XK120 is a car with in-period racing experience and film experience back in the day. Plus, it’s been comprehensively restored, too.



Let’s start with its competition record. Cyril Wick and car owner Mark Levy entered the Rallye International Evian-Mont-Blanc-Megève. They set fastest times on several stages, but a brake failure ended their event in its closing hours. The Jaguar also competed in hillclimbs and made an appearance at Goodwood in 1953.



You can also find this XK120 in the opening credits of the 1957 film “The Truth About Women.”
