1961 Jaguar Mk2 | Bishopstone, Wiltshire

A Jaguar Mk2, the Coventry-built sports saloon known for brisk performance and a bright, airy cabin. Slimmer pillars gave it 18 per cent more glass than the saloon before, and police forces used it on motorway patrols. This car is finished in mist grey with a red leather interior, a calm exterior around a warm cabin. It has the 3.4-litre six-cylinder engine and is in very good condition, with a history of careful upkeep. The large windows let a camera pick out the red leather from outside the car. The formal four-door profile suits period film and television, particularly 1960s British crime and drama, where the model's police history fits the setting. Grey paint leaves clothes, locations and the red seats to carry the colour in fashion, editorial and music video work. It also makes a graceful wedding or birthday car. It is based in Bishopstone, Wiltshire.
