Description
This Jaguar XK150 DHC (Drop Head Coupe) LHD is a remarkable example with matching numbers, featuring a 3.4-liter engine. The vehicle’s production date of October 28, 1960, is clearly established through the accompanying Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate. Upon completion, the car commenced its journey from the Jaguar factory to Tokyo, Japan, where it was entrusted to the care of the official Japanese Distributor, Jidosha. From there, the vehicle’s ownership narrative took an intriguing turn as it was acquired by Dr. P.M. Lubin, a resident of Charleston, USA. Given the historical context and Dr. Lubin’s location, one might speculate that there could be a military connection tied to his acquisition. Continuing its fascinating journey, the car made its way to California under the ownership of Mr. William Newell. Notably, Mr. Newell held the prestigious position of Vice President of Flight Operations at Western Airlines in Los Angeles. This affiliation with the aviation industry adds an intriguing layer to the vehicle’s history, reflecting the remarkable paths that intertwine in the world of transportation. Around 1990, a new chapter began as James Wilson, renowned for his association with Wilson Racing based in Kentucky, USA took ownership of the car. Subsequent ownership transitions brought the car to the attention of Retro Classics Ltd in England. This acquisition was made with the intention of enhancing the French Holiday Home experience for their Managing Director. In 2005, our adventurous Jaguar found itself under the care of an English Gentleman living in Germany. With unwavering dedication, he meticulously upheld its maintenance and gracefully contributed nearly 20,000 miles to its journey. This served as a testament to the notion that these remarkable automobiles ought to be actively driven rather than confined to storage. To this day, the gentleman stands as the sole owner within the context of the present German historical registration.
