Jaguar XK140, XK150, Mk1, E-Type/XKE, Mk1, Mk2, MkX, S-Type, 240, 340, 420, 420G, XJ6 Series 1 Wood Rim Steering Wheels.

Beautiful Walnut Burl and Piano Black steering wheels for the classic Jaguar range. These are made to order in three styles: E-Type, Derrington and the XK 4 spoke. Supply time is approx 3 weeks.

Jaguar and Daimler Mk2, MkX, S-Type, 240, 340, 420, 420G, V8 250, XJ6 Series 1:

The 16" E-Type and Derrington style Walnut Burl wheels are made to fit up to a standard 6cyl E-Type hub (boss) which will fit directly in your car. These are available from the various Jaguar parts suppliers such as SC Parts, SNG Barratt etc. On the Derrington wheel, if you wish to retain the original early saloon horn ring/bar setup, then be sure to order the appropriate hub for it as they are a little different to the standard E-Type item.

E-Type 1961-1971:

In the case of fitting these wheels in an E-Type 3.8 or 4.2, you would simply use your original hub and horn assembly.

XK140/XK150 and Mk1:

The four spoke wheel is made to fit up to the commonly available Moto-Lita boss/hub kit part number B32OE. This allows you to retain your original horn push assembly.

Piano Black wood rim.

Some reproduction wheels leave a lot to be desired..

One-off Jaguar XJ8/XK8 Steering wheel, modified with Walnut burl rim and boxwood inlays back in 2000. This was literally a one-off, and I have no plans at the moment to do any more.
