    Lot 808 - JAGUAR E-TYPE SERIES II 4.2
    JAGUAR E-TYPE SERIES II 4.2 ROADSTER 1968, DIL 140 VIN 1R8034 ENGINE NO 7R3200-9
    Supplied new in 1968 to British Leyland New York as a LHD car (USA registration number 729BVH) DIL 140 spent the next 25 in the USA, Imported to the UK For its present Owner in April 1993. The car, once landed, underwent an immediate conversion To RHD and was registered in the UK on the 7th September 1993 using the owner`s cherished number. It is understood that the car has been in regular and constant use over the past 20 years with odometer history suggesting around 3000 miles per year. the cars MOT and Tax expired in July 2014 however having only covered 3 miles since its last test the seems little reason a New MOT and normal safety checks would not be all that is required to see this lovely car back on the road. The paintwork and interior would benefit from a refresh but these would not in any way detract from the driving experience. Offered with V5C, Jaguar Heritage Certificate, 1993 Purchase receipt and sundry bills, also service manual and related paperwork.

    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
