Retains matching-numbers engine block

Accompanied by service booklet, sales brochures, invoices, and Jaguar Heritage Trust Production Record Trace Certificate

Handsomely finished in Old English White over a tan interior with a brown top

Under single ownership since 1987

Purchased by its current owner in 1987, he has cared for the car ever since, as shown in the collection of invoices on file. Today, this E-Type presents in wonderful condition with Old English White paint over a tan interior with a brown top. Most importantly, the JHT certificate confirms the matching-numbers engine block has remained with the car since it left the factory nearly 60 years ago. In the summer of 2023, the Jaguar was serviced and the engine, cooling system, brakes, and select suspension components received attention as needed. A service booklet and sales brochures will additionally accompany the car upon purchase.

Such a well-presented example of the legendary Jaguar E-type will surely make for a wonderful addition to any collection—and an even better companion on the road.
