The 4/Sixty Eight was launched in April 1959 as the most luxurious of the Farina styled B series cars and was priced accordingly. A car tested by The Motor magazine in 1959 had a top speed of 88.2 miles an hour and reached 60 in 18.8 seconds, with fuel consumption of 27.3 miles per gallon and a price of 1,028 pounds including taxes.
