" I really enjoyed realising my long-held ambition of driving an E-Type - the archetypal British Sportscar! The only part of the hire I didn't enjoy was having to give the car back! "

Jaguar E type For Sale

1965 Jaguar E type Series 1, 4.2 Litre Fixed Head Coupe - 2 seater

Fine example of the most sought after version of the E type. Hard to fault.

This car is beautifully finished in Jaguar Racing Green with chrome wire wheels and black leather interior. Detailed engine bay.

It has the advantages of the improved Jaguar all synchromesh gearbox, improved seating, as well as retaining the classic closed-in headlight appearance of the early E type. Combined with itīs all-round condition this is an extremely desirable E type - ideal for grand touring holidays, continental tours and club events.

It comes with photographic records from itīs rebuild which was completed in 1989/90 when it was described as being "as good, if not better than when it left the factory" by a Jaguar Driverīs Club representative. This comes along with a substantial file of invoices showing Ģ000īs being spent by the previous owner in the last few years, with the oldest invoice dating from 1979. MOT certificates show the mileage from 1990 as being an apparently supported 21,600. The car has recently passed an MOT with flying colours.

The car is fitted with a Kenlowe cooling fan, alternator conversion as well as period Motorola radio which was overhauled by the Vintage Wireless Company.

The car drives extremely well, and performed perfectly on itīs initial trip in our hands - some 250 miles.

Viewings are invited when you will have the chance to speak with the engineer who prepared the car.

Sensibly priced at Ģ37,500
