With its origins dating back tothe late 1920s, the Jaguar name first came about in the fall of1935 and the company, SS Cars Ltd. ended up changing its name toJaguar Cars Ltd. in the years following World War II. In the fallof 1948, at the Earls Court Motor Show, Jaguar debuted the firstiteration of its XK line with the XK120. As its name suggests, theXK120 was said to have a top speed of 120 miles per hour whichwould make it the fastest production car in the world at that time.In October of 1954, Jaguar replaced the XK120 with the XK140further iterating on the sports cars engineering and style. Thenin the middle of 1957, Jaguar released its final iteration of itsXK-series, the XK150. The new XK150 had a brand new look with aredesigned exterior silhouette along with additional performanceupgrades and a roomier and more luxurious interior. 1960 marked thefinal full year of production for the XK series since production ofthe XK150 was halted in the middle of 1961 when the XK-E (E-Type)Jaguars made their debuts.
