This really quite extraordinary book from Bernard Viart Edited By Roger Payne records every detail for both LHD and RHD models of this popular Jaguar sports car of the mid-1950s. The text is in English, having been translated from Bernard Viart's original French by experts.
The task is accomplished in style through over 300 plates featuring some 2,000+ annotated drawings – probably no other car has ever been covered in such precise detail before. These drawings are augmented by chapters describing the car’s origins, design, construction and competition career. Several hundred period photographs also help tell the story of the XK 140 in this unique and most graphic way.
