As you will see for yourself, this late-entered 1969/70 Jaguar E Type does require some attention to the fixed head coupe bodywork, which has been in receipt of a poor repaint in red while the oatmeal interior requires a retrim. According to the Derbyshire vendor, the radiator has failed and the brakes require recommissioning. He tells us, however, that the right-hand drive vehicle has been in storage for ten years and the mechanical condition is quite good - with the 4.2-litre 6-cylinder engine displaying good oil pressure and the 4-speed manual transmission claimed to be good. The most sensibly set reserve for this project reflects its overall condition.

Auction description:
this Series II remained in production until 1971, being most popular in the UK in fixed head form.A 1970 model, this coup has been in the hands of a longstanding Jaguar enthusiast for the past five years and it is reluctantly offered for sale due, he tells us, to his advancing years. Prior to his acquisition, the car had been stored for some twelve years and when put back on the road it was evident that much work was required. Refurbishment to the body has been undertaken as necessary, whilst the clutch was replaced, all brake pipes renewed, master cylinder and servo overhauled. New steering rack mountings were fitted, as were replacement track rod ends. The radiator has benefited from a new core and a stainless steel exhaust system is a recent replacement. All instrumentation is said to be fully functional and the car is reported to drive very well. A pleasing feature is the full-length sunshine roof plus period exterior mirrors and the optional heated rear window. The engine bay is particularly impressive being meticulously clean and virtually to show standard, the car having attended various Jaguar events and rallies whilst in the current ownership.Documentation supplied includes photos of restoration work undertaken during this ownership, a Jaguar / Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate, V5 document and current MOT certificate valid until 28th November 2008.
