Oxford Diecast - NJAG9004 - Automobile, Jaguar, Mk8/9 - Painted/Unlettered - XXM 568

Specific Item Information: Visually, the Jaguar Mk VIII and the early Mk IX were no different, except for the addition of a Mk IX badge on the boot lid. It was under the bonnet where the upgrade resulted in a larger, more powerful 3.8 litre engine, power assisted recirculating ball steering as well as 4-wheel disc brakes.

Our 1:148 scale two-tone black and rick maroon has also appeared in Oxford's larger scale series in the same detail. Registered XXM 568, the interior seating, floor and carpets are all bright red. The exterior trim is finished in silver apart from the wheel trim ring which is black. Across the boot the Jaguar Automatic name appears above the number plate with the distinctive Mk IX printed in silver above the chrome bumper. There is a lot of detail here rounding off a truly authentic replica.

Road Name History: Some items are designed to have their owner add whatever company marking they choose, usually in the form of decals or dry-transfers. These items are painted in a generic prototypical fashion but with all company affiliation deliberately left off.
