One of just 1 of 1,583 right-hand drive 4.2 Fixed Head Coupes, ‘DXJ’ had previously been cherished in a 31 year long-term ownership from 1988 until September, 2019 and was the owners ‘pride and joy’, which included lots of shows and rallies with press articles about the car included in the history file.

Presenting in British Racing Green and displaying some 123,450 credible miles from new, the E-Type is said to present with an excellent body and engine.
