The principle brochure said "All the accumulated wealth of knowledge and experience gained in the hard school of racing have been built into the new XK140 models which are powered by the famous 31/2 litre twin overhead camshaft XK engine. " Upgrades to the body included a new grille with fewer slats and an integrated Jaguar badge. Front turn signals were installed on top of the fenders and amber driving lights were positioned just above the bumpers. The rear trunk lid featured a new central chrome accent and badges that spelled out "Winner Le Mans 1951--3.
