1962 Mark II 2.4 liter Jaguar The Mark II Jaguar is a small saloon car by US standards. It is a well-known car, which was driven by the fictional TV detective "Inspector Morse" played by Mr. John Thaw. The Mark II series adhered to the grace, space and pace", which is also conventionally fast, capable, and beautiful saloon car. It has a 2.4 litre straight 6-cylinder engine. The head of the 4.2 engines in the type E was significantly different. This is to accommodate larger valves of the car. |

The 2.4 engines were fitted with "twin solexes" of which three were used in the US specification 3.8s and 3.4s in order to meet "SMOG" emissions legislation. However, this reduced the performance over the equivalent "S.U." carburettored examples. The Mark II gained a reputation for transcending the borders of breeding and class in the 60s. This is breaking down the barriers in the name of good taste, which have enough rooms for five men and with a big boot for the loot or bodies. |
