1969 Jaguar XKE Convertible
I never met a car collector that didn’t think that all XKE’s were just beautiful. Enzo Ferrari when he first saw the very first edition of the XKE in 1961 said it was the most beautiful car that was ever made…EVER!
The 1969 Jaguar XKE Series II for sale here is beautifully presented in a black-on-black scheme and represents an exceptional opportunity. This XKE has benefited from comprehensive maintenance.
Currently the odometer reads just a few miles under 60,000.
Again the car is Triple Black, finished in a black paint complemented by a black soft top and black interior. And yes!
The interior is done in beautiful black leather. A touch of modern convenience is subtly integrated with an upgraded digital stereo featuring Bluetooth connectivity.
This XKE is equipped with the factory’s largest engine, the 4.2-liter inline-six that is known for its smooth power delivery. The four-speed manual transmission has all gears synchro including the first gear.
Everything is working as it should, except for the windshield wipers.
Keep in mind that the 1969 Jaguar Series II comes with the largest six cylinder engine put in by the Jaguar factory. It is a 4.2 liter engine and also has a full synchro mesh transmission, including the synchro for first gear.
If you are looking for an XKE that seems to push all the buttons including a very desirable color scheme, check out the price and you will be even more impressed when you see that this car is very attractively priced in the Jaguar XKE marketplace!
Driving this XKE is sure to put a big smile on your face and whenever you stop to park it you will be greeted with a crowd.
