On eBay here, this 1967 Jaguar XKSS Recreation is an exquisite tribute to one of the most iconic sports cars in automotive history, meticulously crafted to the highest standards. Commissioned in 2015 and completed in 2017, this recreation was built without regard to expense, using hand-crafted, riveted aluminium sheetfor the bodywork, exactly as the original XKSS. Finished in a stunning gloss black by Normandale of Daventry, it features a smart red leather interior, complete with racing seats and competition harnesses. Powered by a period-correct 3.4-litre, dry-sump XK 6-cylinder engine with triple Weber 45DCOE carburettors, it delivers around 250bhp through a Jaguar independent rear axle. This machine is as fast as it is beautiful, echoing the spirit of the legendary D-Type.
This XKSS Recreation is not just about looks; it’s built for performance and authenticity, right down to the 16’’ Dunlop peg-drive wheels and side exit exhaust pipe. With only 52 miles since its build and a full recommissioning by Classic Performance Engineering at Bicester Heritage, it’s effectively brand new. The XKSS is renowned for its rich history, originating from Jaguar’s decision to convert unsold D-Types into road-going sports cars, famously driven by Steve McQueen. Only 16 original models were produced before a factory fire ended production, making originals extremely rare and valuable. This faithful re-creation offers a unique opportunity to experience the thrill and nostalgia of the XKSS without the multi-million-pound price tag. Don’t miss out on this masterfully built legend—a car that’s welcome at classic events worldwide or simply a head-turner for weekend drives.
