The original getaway car. The Cray Brothers drove them, as did most other gangland thugs in London's East End. Raced and rallied with great success, and still finding fame as Inspector Morse's car - though driven rather more sedately than Reggie Cray did. The Mark 2 features central locking, power steering and seats 5 people comfortably, with plenty of room for luggage. A great car to pop the kids in the back and go for a long weekend away, or simply to cruise around in, feeling like a gangster.
Let me introduce you to my 1962 Jaguar Mark 2. Shipped out to country Victoria from London where she remained until I brought her to Sydney.
This classic vehicle is a Heritage Certified, absolutely original 3.8 litre Mark 2. Still with the original engine and gearbox and restored with the same colour for paint and upholstery as originally specified and wire wheels matching the body colour – chrome wire wheels were considered rather brash for Mark 2's back in the sixties!
He is the easiest car in the fleet to drive. Automatic gearbox, power steering, central locking, inertia reel seatbelts and is my usual daily drive when not out on hire. Relaxing to cruise and a nice head turner without being too ostentatious and is also the oldest car in the fleet. Bolted together back in 1962 – even before the Beatles!
Fantastic for family outings (he even has cute picnic tables fitted into the back of the front seats), seating 5 in comfort with a cavernous boot.
Everyone will love driving my 1962 Jaguar Mark 2.
