The car was Jaguar's small saloon, of the time, and benefits
from DeNormanville overdrive and disc brakes. It reputably
generates 120 bhp and has a top speed of around 120 mph.
The current registration plate was originally
issued by Surrey County Council and the current V5 records
8 keepers.
The model was introduced in 1959 and continued in production
until 1967. Over 25,000 were made of this model out of 80,000
Mark II’s.
The car has retained all reference to the series including
the non-standard vinyl roof and a special bracket across
the front of the chassis which was used during filming to
allow the
occupants of the car to be filmed through the windscreen
from a pick-up truck mounted camera.
