Auction description:
163 A 1967 Jaguar E-Type Series 1½ 2+2 coupé, registration number RLO 10E, chassis number 1E 50580BW, dark Jaguar blue. RLO10E was registered to its first keeper, A Wander Ltd of 42 Upper Grosvenor Street London W1 on 2nd May 1967. She would subsequently change hands a further three times, before the current vendor acquired her in 1993. An automatic example of the iconic
E-Type, RLO 10E, has been extensively restored to a very high standard, by the current vendor. Works carried out include a full bodywork restoration with new metal incorporated into the body shell as necessary, this is recorded with numerous photographs of the work in progress. A full respray was
then executed in dark Jaguar blue by West Coker Body Repairs in 1998 for £2,711 (receipt on file), all of the brightwork was either rechromed or replaced as necessary, the engine was replaced due to a cracked block supplied by W Swallow Engineering (receipt on file), the interior was retrimmed in
dove grey leather, the Webasto sunroof was renovated, and new chrome wire wheels and tyres were purchased, all of the running gear
brakes and suspension were reconditioned with new parts as necessary (receipts on file from Castle Vehicle Heritage Limited), plus numerous other items associated with a thorough complete restoration. Since the
restoration was completed in 2008/2009, the Jaguar has only covered a very limited mileage of approximately 300 miles. Offered
for auction with an extensive history file with receipts for many thousands of pounds, a photograph album of the body restoration and
respray, past MOTs, RF60 and V5.

This extensively restored and beautifully presented E-Type is now ready and waiting for the lucky new owner to enjoy her as Jaguar intended. V5C, MOT to March 2014, tax exempt £25000 - 28000
