Harrison Ford May Own a Tesla Model S, But There's Nothing Like a Jaguar XK-140 - autoevolution

Now that he’s back on his feet , Harrison Ford is also back at his old habits. It may be Harrison Ford’s passion, but he has other hobbies too, such as driving classic cars. Sure, us Earthlings, call it Jaguar XK140, a sportscar manufactured between 1954 and 1957. It’s the successor of the XK120, a marvel indeed. If our automotive history book tells the truth, the XK140 was powered by the Jaguar XK engine with the Special Equipment modifications from the XK120. We’re looking at a total output of 190 bhp gross at 5500 rpm, as standard. Sure, the pretentious customers could also opt for the optional C-Type cylinder head, carried over from the XK120 catalogue, and producing 210 bhp gross at 5750 rpm. Getting back to Harrison Ford, it's safe to say the 73-year-old Hollywood icon looked quite relaxed while rolling around Beverly Hills. Photogs were there, as usual, to capture the actor’s every move, but by the looks of it the Star Wars star couldn’t care less. Let’s face it, stopping at a petrol station to refuel a classic Jaguar is such a great experience you don’t need anything else to make for a good day. Source: www.autoevolution.com
