Its striking appearance, the XK120, was built on a distinct chassis, featuring independent front suspension via wishbones and torsion bars, an active rear axle, and large hydraulic drum brakes at all four corners. The heart of the car was, of course, the fantastic XK engine. The 3,4-liter inline six-cylinder engine, designed during wartime and intended for Jaguar's post-war sedan, embodied the best of modern design, with double overhead camshafts in an aluminum cylinder head, seven main bearings, and maximum power. of 160 hp combined with endless torque. The bodywork was the work of Jaguar boss William Lyons himself - and is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful forms ever to grace a car - and was conceived as an aluminium structure for the simple reason that Jaguar expected to sell no more than 200 XK120 Roadsters - or Open Two Seater (OTS) - in the first year!
