When unveiled in September 1955, what we now know as the MKI was dubbed the Jaguar 2.4 Litre - the MKI moniker being a subsequent invention to distinguish the early car from the MKII version that replaced it in 1959. The newcomer was Jaguar's first unitary construction model and was sized to compete with the Humbers, Standards and Rovers that were dominating the post-war sector for middle-weight executive Saloons. As the original name suggested, the MKI was only initially available with a 2.4-litre version of the company's ubiquitous XK engine; the 3.4-litre option not appearing in the US for another 17 months, and later still in the home market. Both variants proved popular over the model's five year reign, with the MKI eventually accounting for just over half the combined sales of 37,397. Its performance was pretty impressive too, and Motor magazine's 1956 test returned a top speed of 101.5mph and 14.4 seconds for the 0-60mph sprint. A distinguishing feature of the model was its narrow rear track (it's 4.5 inches less than the front one) which though, probably incorrectly, was felt to create understeer at low speeds, endowed the Jaguar with impressive straight line stability. The righthand drive sale car vacated Jaguar's Browns Lane plant in 1959 and is thought to have spent its early life in South Africa, finally returning to these shores in 1990. The engine and carburettors have been overhauled in the last 12 months and the vendor now classes the bodywork as 'excellent'; the six-cylinder engine, Ivory-coloured paintwork and Burgundy leather interior trim as 'very good'; and the four-speed manual transmission as 'good'; and says 'TAS 905' runs and drives very well'. The car's odometer currently registers an unwarranted 32,200 miles and the Jaguar is being sold complete with a history file containing various items of paperwork and old MOTs etc.
- The subject of a five-page article in Mercedes Enthusiast magazine (June 2013 issue) - Treated to an engine overhaul, bare metal respray and re-trim in leather between 2002 and 2008 - Recent £6,000 expenditure on brakes, suspension, engine / gearbox mounts, re-chromed bumpers, fresh tyres and servicing etc. - 1 of 14,173 220SEb Coupes made. Fuel-injected 2195cc straight-six engine allied to four-speed manual transmission. Via the W111 'fintail' series of 1959, Mercedes continued its practice of offering special two-door Coupe or Roadster versions of its Saloon cars, and the 220SEB took this supreme elegance to a whole new level. Based on the flagship S-class W111 'fintail' Saloon, with its signature upright headlights and imposing traditional Mercedes-Benz grille, the Coupe comprised a light and airy pillarless glasshouse over a distinctive two-door body. The 220 Coupe was very well appointed inside, featuring Mercedes textured leather and wood trimmings. The model's 2195cc, SOHC engine employed mechanical fuel injection of the same type as the 'Pagoda' SLs - its 120bhp being sufficient to propel the car at up to 106mph. The suspension comprised wishbones and coil springs at the front and low-pivot swing-axles with radius arms and coil springs at the rear. The resulting ride was very statesmanlike. A total of some 14,173 220SEB Coupes were built between 1961 and 1965 when the run was terminated. 'AAP 122B' vacated the Stuttgart production line in 1964. Its Red two-door Coupe bodywork is complemented by Cream leather interior trim, ivory-coloured steering wheel and wool carpets, and a wood facia. In 2002 it was treated to a comprehensive engine overhaul by Top Marques; in 2005 it benefited from a full bare metal respray, and in 2008 the interior was completely refurbished. Having been garaged ever since, it is still classed by the vendor as having 'very good' bodywork, paintwork, interior, straight-six engine and manual four-speed gearbox. Nevertheless the underside has just received a repaint and protection against the elements, as well as a service and fresh MOT. Furthermore, £6,000 has been invested in the brakes, suspension, engine and gearbox mounts, rechroming, new tyres etc. The 220 is now offered complete with a selection of invoices, old MOTS and a copy of the Mercedes Enthusiast magazine in which 'AAP 122B' starred in 2013.
