1948 Jaguar Drop Head Coupe MKIV

in #cars7 years ago (edited)

I took these photos at the Gosford Classic Car Museum in Sydney, Australia. The museum has over 450 cars with a combined value of over $70 million under one roof.

This is a 1948 Jaguar Drop Head Coupe MKIV, it has a 2.5 lt engine which produces 105 hp and had a top speed of 90 mph or 145 kph.

Love to cruise down the road in this with the wind in my hair, that would be great fun.

You are right it would be a nice day out, cheers.

A amazing place - looks really huge! What was this, a aircraft hangar or so?
And the collection is somehow peculiar, too. Old cars, fairly new cars, motorbikes - even a fire truck - all shuffled like on a big car park.
Who runs this place, is it private or owned by the town?

It's a huge modern warehouse turned into a museum and is privately owned. Most of these cars are for sale, so there is a constant turnover of vehicles coming and going. But on average they have about 450 cars, bikes, 4WD and even a small tank, cheers mate.

Really, they sell them? So its more a vintage car dealer rather than a museum?
Too bad it doesn't show price tags, would be interesting to see what they ask for some of the older models. Some can be scary expensive, depending on what model it is.

It's both, a lot of the cars stay there for a long time because they are so expensive. If you take a look at some of my other posts at the bottom of the white signs it has the asking price in red. Not all the cars have a price on the sign but are open for negotiation, cheers mate.

Gota love the classics. Nice pictures as usual :)

The Jaguars are a classic looking cars, that's for sure, I think they all look awesome. Thanks for the visit and comment, cheers mate.
