1947 Jaguar Mark IV

"The Jaguar Mark IV was a saloon car built by the Jaguar company from 1945 to 1949. It was a relaunch of a pre World War II model made by SS Cars Ltd from 1936. Before World War 2 the name Jaguar was the model name given to the complete range of cars built by SS Cars Ltd. The saloons were titled SS Jaguar 1½ litre, 2½ litre or 3½ litre. The two seater sports car was titled the SS Jaguar 100 2½ litre or 3½ litre. After the war the company name was changed to Jaguar Cars Ltd. The post war saloons were officially the Jaguar 1½ litre, 2½ litre etc the term 'Mark IV' was applied by the trade simply to differentiate them from the officially named Mark V."
