The Jaguar 240 and 340, produced from 1967 to 1969, marked a significant shift in the British luxury car marque's lineup. These models, distinct from the earlier Mark 2, were designed to offer a sportier and more luxurious experience. The 240 was powered by a 2.4-liter inline-six engine, while the slightly larger 340 boasted a 3.4-liter engine. Both engines were known for their smooth and powerful performance, paired with a responsive handling that belied their size.
The 240 and 340 were visually distinct from the Mark II, featuring a redesigned grille, headlights, and taillights. The interiors were similarly upgraded, with more luxurious materials and a more refined layout. While the 240 was initially seen as a more affordable entry point into the Jaguar lineup, both models were appreciated for their blend of comfort, style, and performance. They were popular choices amongst discerning drivers who appreciated the brand's heritage and craftsmanship. However, these models were ultimately replaced by the XJ6 in 1968, signifying the end of the "Mark II"-based models and ushering in a new era for Jaguar. The 240 and 340 remain a testament to the brand's commitment to crafting stylish and engaging vehicles, even if they only had a brief lifespan.
