Production years: 1959-1966

The 2.4 & 3.4 litre cars stayed in production until 1959 when a substantially modified car, known as the Mark 2 was announced, at which time the earlier cars became unofficially known as Mark 1s.

The Mark 2 benefited from a larger glass area and a wider rear track to improve handling and the looks. The new model was fitted with more chrome and a completely new interior layout. The Mark 2 was also available with a choice of three engine sizes, 2.4 litre, 3.4 litre and 3.8 litre.
