Established in 1982, Jaguar XK specialist Leaping Cats Ltd provided panels, body shells, parts & bespoke work to the trade & individual restorers of XK 120 XK 140 XK 150 classic Jaguars.
All work undertaken on-site. Highly skilled tinsmiths available for all aspects of car body restorations.
Peacock Prestige provided all paintwork on Leaping Cats’ top-of-the-range Jaguar XK restorations, completing several body shells as Leaping Cats closed their doors. Naturally, Peacock Prestige have decided to continue the great works of Leaping Cats Ltd.
We are proud to continue the works of Leaping Cats with their former skilled tinsmiths and metalworkers, as well as continuing to provide the very best paint finishes in the Jaguar XK world.

You can rest assured knowing you can leave every last detail down to us. Our suppliers have been supplying the industry for as long as the market has demanded. Anything that can’t be supplied can be restored. We offer our restoration services across a multitude of classic car components.
Disassembly and assembly of vehicle components can prove difficult, especially on older vehicles. At Peacock Prestige we offer a full fitting service so that you can bring your car to us and even drive it back out again when we’re done.
At the heart of any Jaguar XK sports car is the famous 6-cylinder XK engine. Our company director and co-owner has owned and worked on Jaguar XK engines for over 30 years – from road cars to decorated race cars.
We offer a range of engine services including performance and motorsport upgrades, as well as repairs and maintenance. From 2.4L to 4.2L versions, we keep our XKs smooth and powerful.
Jaguar XK models are comprised of a body shell and a ladder chassis. The chassis is built up with the engine, gearbox and suspension with the shell then placed on top.
The chassis can often go overlooked when considering to restore your Jaguar XK. We offer comprehensive chassis restoration including shot blasting, repairs, alignment and coatings.
As part of our Classic Car Restoration Services we offer Metal Fabrication services. From simple cutting and welding to panel fabricating. We have all of the necessary jigs, cutters, tools and experienced professionals to carry out the work required.
Peacock Prestige offer full bare metal resprays from the exterior finish to the interior and underside. Just because you don’t see it doesn’t mean it isn’t covered by our prestige finish.
We have the tools and equipment to ensure your vehicle is painted, and protected, from every angle
