Auction description:
Status SOLD
Estimate £18000 - 20000
Hammer Price £18000.00
Mileage 67794
Colour RED

Chassis No 1S2021BW

Registration PTJ777M
CC 5343
M.O.T 21.5.1998
This original United Kingdom Jaguar 'E' type V12 roadster was registered in 1973 and the logbook shows that it has only had one previous keeper to the present private owner and vendor since October 1975. That probably means that it has only had three owners from new with the second owner keeping the car for some sixteen years. The vendor has had the car for the last eight years.
It is finished in Red with the Black upholstery and trim and it is the preferred automatic three speed gearbox model and although the mileage of 67794 miles cannot be warranted it is certainly believed that it is genuine from new. The car has benefitted from a new hood, brake pads and a new silencer box recently and it has during the present ownership, and obviously before that, been maintained regardless of cost.
The car is described as having no known faults and it comes with a current M.O.T. certificate until May next year and tax until October 1997. A very good car!
