For sale: an exceptionally rare 1950 Jaguar XK120 Alloy Lightbody, previously owned by legendary Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour. This historic piece of automotive and cultural history is one of just 240 alloy-bodied XK120s ever produced, making it a true collector’s gem. Finished in a stunning period-correct colour, this iconic British sports car, registration MSU724, has undergone a full restoration under Gilmour’s ownership, ensuring it remains in impeccable condition.
Powered by Jaguar’s renowned 3.4-litre inline-six engine, this XK120 was the fastest production car of its time, boasting a top speed of over 120 mph. The lightweight aluminium body, hand-assembled on an ash wood frame, exemplifies Jaguar’s post-war engineering excellence. The car’s provenance, which was part of Gilmour’s collection, adds a unique cultural significance, elevating its value beyond just motoring history.
This is a rare opportunity to own not only a piece of Jaguar’s celebrated heritage but also a connection to one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century.
