We are very excited about one particular lot coming
under the hammer at Boldon Auction Galleries next Fine Art
and Antique Auction on Wednesday 15th December as we
will be selling a fabulous 1950 Jaguar XK120 Roadster
(number plate KRU 600)

The XK120 Roadster was first introduced at the London
Motor Show in 1948 as Jaguar’s first post-war sports car.
'120' refers to it's top speed of 120mph making it the world’s
fastest production car when it was launched and 'XK'
refers to the new type of engine created by Jaguar.

The XK120's were a huge success breaking endurance records
and winning races; the model that we have coming up for
auction we believe was also raced by it’s owner.  It is clearly
in need of restoration but we still expect there to be fierce
competition when it comes under the hammer on the 15th December
