1935 Jaguar SS1 Tourer

Chassis no. 248799

€ 90,000 - 110,000

US$ 110,000 - 130,000

The Autoworld Autumn Sale, Brussels

•One of only 2,503 final-specification SS1s built

•Rare survivor of an early SS model

•An older restoration

•Present private ownership since 2012

This restored example of the concluding SS1 was in the preceding owner's possession in the USA for some 30 years before being purchased by the current vendor in 2012. At that time the car was described as benefiting from a new hood, carpets, hood bag and tonneau cover, and was described as in generally good condition with excellent paint and brightwork. Since its acquisition by the current vendor in 2012, the SS has required no major work, while bills on file testify to regular maintenance. It should be noted that the car's original engine has been replaced and that the capacity of the unit currently installed is not known. Finished in green with magnolia interior, this most stylish SS1 tourer comes with a Jaguar Heritage Certificate and a French Carte Grise.
