Pronounced "Mark Ten", this revolutionary car debuted in 1961 amidst a shower of fanfare. Seen as a radical departure from Jaguar's earlier vehicles, the styling of the Mk.X was so well received that much of it continues in Jaguar models today. Larger than any contemporary Jaguar at nearly seventeen feet in length, one slips comfortably into the spacious maroon interior and is immediately surprised by the level of sophistication. Handcrafted burl walnut is everywhere -- the dashboard, door panel caps, rear seat trim, and even fold-down picnic trays for the rear passengers. Many automotive historians have labeled this the most beautiful interior ever produced. Furthermore, you're sitting lower than in other cars of the period -- giving a young, sporty feel to a very ornate and luxurious car. For a moment you're a wealthy London socialite, and what better way to travel? The chauffeur starts up the engine, switches on the air conditioning, and you're off to see the world.
Indeed, what better way to travel than in a vintage Jaguar?
