Jaguar Mark VIII

Jaguar

I found this gem sitting in a parking deck in Burbank, California yesterday while getting some shopping done. Pardon my ignorance on classic Jaguar’s but from what I can tell it is a Jaguar Mark VIII which was in production from  1956–1958. In that three year period only 6,227 were produced and this one was in pretty excellent condition. For a 4,000lb+ 50’s machine the car was rumored to have a top speed in excess of 106mph with a motor that only made 210bhp. A pretty impressive machine to be found just sitting in a parking deck in the valley. I couldn’t really find any good consistant pricing but I am assuming this thing would fall in around the $50,000 range if sold on the market.
