Some Model Details below
Mk 2 240 and 340
Some time on or about September 1967 the 3.8 litre model was discontinued[8]
and the 2.4 and 3.4 litre Mark 2 cars were rebadged as the 240 and 340
respectively as gap-fillers until the XJ6 arrived in September 1968.
The 340 was discontinued at that time, but remaining Series 2 parts were
used up producing budget-priced 240s until April 1969. These sold at
£1364, only £20 more than the first 2.4 in 1956.[4]
Output of the 240 engine was increased from 120 bhp (89 kW;
122 PS) at 5,750 rpm. to 133 bhp (99 kW; 135 PS) at 5,500 rpm. and
torque was increased. It now had a straight-port type cylinder head and
twin HS6 SU carburettors with a new inlet manifold. Both Models continued to fit the Dunlop
6.40H15 Crossply tyres as standard. 185VR15 Pirelli Cinturato was the
radial alternative. Servicing intervals were increased from 2,000 miles
(3,200 km) to 3,000 miles (4,800 km). There was a slight reshaping of
the rear body and slimmer bumpers and over-riders were fitted.[8] For the first time the 2.4 litre model could exceed 100 mph,[4][9] resulting in a slight sales resurgence.
The 240 and 340 models retained cost-saving downgrades that had
appeared a year earlier in the Mark 2 series. Standard leather
upholstery was replaced by Ambla, a leather-like synthetic
material, and tufted carpet was used on the floor. The front fog lamps
were replaced with circular vents and made optional for the UK market.
The sales price was reduced to compete with the Rover 2000 TC.[10]
The Mark 2 interior remained luxuriously appointed with Jaguar's characteristic burr walnut
240 and 340: 7,246 produced between 1967 and 1969, split as follows:[5]
