Bonhams Jaguar XK150S wreck sells for £90,000

28 May 2021

Whilst the words wreck might be argued by some to be a little strong for the more officially titled 1960 Jaguar XK150S project that Bonhams sold for £90,000 at its MPH sale last week, the photograph certainly suggests a challenging project has been bought by someone. The estimate was closer to the £10k mark although that was never going to happen given what the S variants command in value when fully restored. The car in question was wrapped around a tree in 1996 by the vendor who fortunately walked free, and subsequently stored the car for the next two and a half decades. The car does look like a piece of art and assuming the chassis is undisturbed by the impact, a restoration should be within the grasp of any good restoration shop, but one wonders at what cost!
