    1957 Jaguar Mk. VIII Matching Numbers!

    In 1950, Jaguar presented the big Mk. VII with a massive line and interior in leather and leather
    Fine wood according to British ideas. This was crowned by the 2-cam engine of the XK 120. At the end of 1956 it became the Mk. VIII. Externally recognizable by the continuous Windscreen and wider grille, the occupants are with even more
    Luxury spoiled. Even more power is needed at up to 180 km / h
    the very fast. A good 6,200 copies were created until after two years of construction his successor was replaced.
    At that time luxurious, today it also puts spoiled heads in delight. Thick leather is framed by noble wooden strips, glossy veneered picnic tables inspire mobile Laptop humans. The interior is unrestored, combining charm and patina world champion
    English. Delivered by Marston Excelsior in Leeds, the Jaguar Mk. VIII
    First admitted in England on 1 May 1957 and came already 1994 to Austria, where he enriched the collection of the consignor. This Jaguar opens up to the world through huge sunroof, which in combination with additional windows the air conditioning
    replaced. It is a largely unrestored copy of an impressive
    Limousine, which at the time was the highest, what Jaguar had to offer in luxury!

    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
