This 1965 Jaguar XKE is a Series I roadster that was completed on August 23, 1965, for delivery in the US via Jaguar Cars of New York and is said to have been purchased in the late 1990s by marque specialist Classic Showcase of Oceanside, California, who performed a refurbishment in 1999. After being sold in the early 2000s, the car spent several years with a Minnesota collector before being purchased in 2013 from the seller’s business by its current owner, who has subsequently had it serviced by Midwest Motor Sports in Sauk Rapids, Minnesota. Finished in dark blue over tan leather, the car is powered by a 4.2-liter DOHC inline-six that breathes through triple SU carburetors and is mated to an all-synchromesh four-speed manual transmission. Additional features include four-wheel disc brakes, 15” wire wheels, and a dark blue Stayfast convertible top. This Series I E-Type is offered by the seller on behalf of its owner with a Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate and a clean Minnesota title in the current owner’s name.

Originally finished in Opalescent Silver Blue, the car is said to have been repainted in its current shade of dark blue during the 1999 refurbishment by Classic Showcase of California. Features include covered headlights, chrome bumpers with overriders, triple windshield wipers, and a dark blue Stayfast convertible top that can be stowed under a matching boot.

Chrome-finished 15″ wire wheels are secured via two-eared knock-offs and are wrapped in 185-width Michelin XVS tires, as is a matching spare housed in the trunk. Stopping is handled by four-wheel disc brakes with the rear units situated inboard.

The cabin features bucket seats trimmed in Biscuit leather with matching upholstery over the door panels, console, and sills. Additional equipment includes color-keyed carpeting, black rubber floor mats with embossed Jaguar logos, and a radio blanking plate.

The wood-rimmed steering wheel features drilled spokes and sits ahead of Smiths instrumentation including a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer with an inset clock. Gauges monitoring coolant temperature, oil pressure, fuel level, and amperage are situated in the center of the dash above toggle switchgear. The five-digit odometer reportedly reflects the distance traveled since the refurbishment and shows 1,400 miles, approximately 1k of which have been added under current ownership.

The 4.2-liter XK inline-six breathes through triple SU carburetors and is said to have been overhauled during the aforementioned refurbishment. Service by marque specialists Midwest Motor Sports in 2022 included replacing the spark plugs, coil, and battery.

Engine number 7E5095-9 is stamped on the cylinder head and can be seen stamped on the engine block as well as on the chassis plate and Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate.

Power is sent to the rear wheels via an all-synchromesh four-speed manual transmission.

The Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate lists the original colors, equipment number, and delivery information.
