The Jaguar Mark IX was a large saloon car produced by Jaguar Cars between 1959 and 1961. It replaced the previous Mark VIII, and indeed differed little in exterior appearance except for the new model name. It was in turn replaced by the much larger Mark X.
Internally, an enlarged-bore 3.8 L (231 in³) DOHC straight-6 replaced the previous 3.4 L (210 in³) unit. Four-wheel disc brakes and power steering were now standard equipment.
Production totalled 10,005 in the three years the model was available.
