XK150 Traveller

Post by Owlsman »

This is for sale.

The ultimate 'cut and shut'? Perhaps, but I'm not sure and I don't think I'm going to risk £44.995 to see if it grows on me.

this advert from 2011 meanwhile says that it was currently French Registered, but formerly 558 NOT

Agreed. I didn't see that just from the photo I posted.

Another problem. Which owners club do you join? :D

I am not a fan of it, I am guessing that price is kind of expensive.

No. That is even worse.
I can see SOME appeal in the XK Traveller. We must remember that when it was converted, an old Jag was worth very little.
A decent XK150 is about £100,000 now, so that one is relatively cheap in some ways :wink:
