More than 30,000 XK open tourers, convertibles and coupes were manufactured over a period of 11 years; the majority of surviving examples are now desirable classics. Beginning with the XK120 introduced after World War II, this guide describes each model's design, development, production and competition careers, providing valuable purchasing and ownership advice and sources for spare parts. Completely illustrated, the book also includes appendices of technical specifications, serial numbers, model changes and color codes.

General overview of the XK series,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Jaguar Xk (Collectors Guides) (Hardcover)
This is a decent general referience to the Jaguar XK series, but does not go into much detail about the various models for the restorer. It does provide the development and race history and a summary of what to watch for if you are thinking of purchasing one, as do a number of other books on the XK series.
