Jaguar XK140 Ghia Coupe 1955 Red by Matrix
Precise numbers are difficult to find regarding how many XK140s were clothed by Ghia (and whether it was in Turin or by Ghia-Aigle in Switzerland) but it wasn’t many. This is the most seen of them and believed to be the third car completed. The wire wheels, as is so often the case with this range, could be a little better and on our sample one of the very delicate side trims has lifted slightly in the middle, again something we’ve seen before. A shame as otherwise the shape looks good, the paintwork is excellent and the remaining small detail parts are well fitted.

About Matrix
From the original creators of the Neo range, this resincast series offers a wide range of mostly road car subjects. Some are very familiar classics but we also see plenty of very rare and usual machines ranging from Maharajah's Rolls Royces to Citroen and Volvo limousines! Overall casting quality is excellent, paint finishes usually to a very high standard and plenty of fine etch used for small trim. Wire wheels on some subjects can be a little unconvincing but otherwise very consistent. Made in China.
