The Jaguar 340 is a classic British sports saloon that combines elegant styling, impressive performance and luxurious comfort. Produced by Jaguar towards the end of the 1960s, the 340 was part of the famous Mk. II family of cars, which had become renowned for their sophisticated design and sporting character. Under the bonnet, the Jaguar 340 featured a 3.4-litre straight-six engine, delivering smooth power and a distinctive engine note. Its performance was complemented by responsive handling and a comfortable ride, making it enjoyable on both winding country roads and long motorway journeys. The car also featured disc brakes, providing strong and reliable stopping power. The exterior design is particularly attractive, with its rounded headlights, chrome detailing, traditional radiator grille and graceful bodywork. Inside, the cabin offered a premium driving experience, featuring wood veneer trim, leather upholstery and classic instrumentation. Today, 340 is admired by classic car enthusiasts for its blend of British craftsmanship, understated elegance and sporting ability. As one of the final developments of the Mk. II series, it represents an important chapter in Jaguar's history.
Originally registered on 11th September 1968 this Jaguar 340 was originally fitted with an automatic gearbox. However, the 3.4 litre engine has been upgraded to a 3.8 litre unit, and a manual gearbox has been fitted. Sitting proudly on wire wheels and finished in the desirable colour combination of Golden Sand with red interior, this is a good looking Jaguar. We are advised the engine runs well and the gearbox operates as it should. The vendor reports this 340 to 3.8 specification drives with no known faults. These models remain a desirable collector's car, offering timeless style and an authentic taste of motoring from the swinging sixties.Consigned by Stewart Banks
