Hermann takes us to a piece of Great Britain in the Netherlands. He's excited about how he became and still is a true "English lover." Proud owner of a piece of British heritage that has been restored on its own. With a sense of detail, quality and finish, a number of English gems have come back to life. The Jaguar XK120 plays a prominent role in the family. A car that has been enjoyed a lot and will also be very interesting.
When was the Jaguar XK120 made and what years were the Jaguar XK140 made.
In 1948, the XK120 was presented at the British International Motor Show. A stylish sports car modeled on the new 6 engine. While most English cars were still large, high-performance cars, this elegant and elegant piece of design art was especially welcome. JAG also drove big there with a powerful engine and balanced chassis. Unlimited success was born and the name XK is still synonymous with the beautiful and fast predatory cat of the Jaguar.
How did Hermann work on his cars in a perfect way.
With the help of Hermann's work on his cars, the perfect gift is an innate car restoration with his own hands and in a traditional way. More owners think they've reclaimed their classic well, but Hermann has the appreciation of everyone who sees his car and also affirmation from a national and international jury when it comes to the XK120's bottom line. "Hats and a deep bow" for this piece of craftsmanship, passion and especially his enthusiasm.
How long has the Jaguar XK120 been in production? What is the top speed of the Jaguar XK120.
Jaguar XK120 The XK120 was in production almost unchanged for six years before it was succeeded by the XK140 in 1954. The term 120 is derived from the engine's top speed. The new XK's 3.4-liter "six straight" engine was tested for speed in a car with an aluminum body and at 120 mph the power was gone. With this achievement in the pocket, the XK120 was the fastest production car at the time. Who the XK140 takes its name from may be clear in this case.
How did real Jaguar experts rate the performance of the Jaguar XK120.
Real Jaguar specialists technically speak about their performance. To outsiders, terms like OTS, DHC, and FHC are a kind of spell. Herman's XK120 is OTS, where the acronym stands for Open Two Seater. DHC was the Drop Head Coupe, a more luxurious and spacious convertible than the OTS. The coupe version of the XK is complemented by the term FHC. The acronym stands for Fixed Head Coupe. The British reasoning for calling the convertible a coupe, but in another way is very simple. You just need to know!
Was Herman's XK120 OTS Found.
Herman's XK120 OTS was found on the side of the road while living in the USA. His passion for the brand made him decide to buy an XK and ship it to Holland. A long-cherished wish was finally fulfilled, and to this day the XK is being driven, enjoyed and talked about with great passion and love. They are used for their intended purpose: leadership!
Trouble-free, because when the car is properly restored, repaired and then properly maintained, Hermann explains that it can run well for a long time and that the car can be enjoyed infinitely. The car that captured the imagination when it was introduced and still appeals to the imagination today. In good hands with a real enthusiast!
