I now own this car and it was never painted red. The bonnet is not the origonal as it has the later ducts for fresh air, but it fits well now that I have shimmed and adjusted it.There are some weld repairs underneath but nothing I cant fix, Generally i am quite pleased with the car, for a 36 year old it runs real well.

1971 Jaguar E Type series 3 2+2

Colour British Racing Green

Odometer 64,470 Miles

Engine size 5343

Auction DetailsSeller Type Private

Town Kings Lynn

Location Norfolk

Country United Kingdom

Beautifully restored V12 E-Type 

Substantial file of bills and receipts 

Completely retrimmed 

New floors and full suspension overhaul 

One of the first fifty RHD 2+2 models built

UK V5C 

MOT, tax and ULEZ exempt 

Large file of invoices and paperwork going back to the 1970s 

Old MOT certificates dating back to the early 1980s 

Copy of previous V5 from long-term London-based owner 

Cherished registration included 

Substantial overhaul and restoration work carried out by current owner 

THE INTERIOR 

Restored pale green leather upholstery 

New carpets 

The original tools comprise of the jack and ratchet plus the wheel brace only

Webasto sunroof 

Inside, the E-Type is in beautiful overall condition with the seats have been restored with new sponge bolsters and rubber diaphrams but retain original leather covers.The door cards and headlining are in near-perfect order, as is the rear load bay and spare wheel hatch, where the original tools are concealed. 

A particularly appealing feature is the car’s full-length Webasto sunroof – it’s watertight and in full working order. 

It has a modernised radio fitted and all of the dials and controls work as they ought to, while the overall condition of the cabin is stunning, offset by a vast bank of switches and a smart three-spoke leather-rimmed sports steering wheel. 

THE EXTERIOR 

Fully repainted to exceptional standard 

New floors and underside repairs carried out by owner 

Beautifully refurbished original steel wheels 

Superb chrome and trim 

This is an absolute stunner of a car, having been professionally repainted to a very high standard by a body shop after the vendor carried out structural repairs. The paint finish is blemish-free and looks incredible, with the colour being a slightly darker hue than the Leyland era British Racing Green that the car originally wore and all the better for it – it’s the original 1960s BRG instead. 

The vendor has fitted new floors that have been repaired as necessary and the drivers side front section renewed to a very good standard over a long period of time – it has been a long-term project and it has clearly been finished with perfectionism front of mind. 

The chrome is original and nicely patinated and the bumpers and over riders are newly fitted, as is the roof canvas, and the wheels have been power-coated and refurbished to a wonderful standard, with a matching set of Pirelli P4000 tyres all-round. 

THE MECHANICS 

5.3-litre V12 

Three-speed automatic 

Suspension, braking system and steering completely overhauled 

Fully checked over and mechanically recommissioned by vendor 

Jaguar’s mighty V12 is an impressive engine and this one appears to be a great example, starting on the button and running smoothly, with good oil pressure. The engine has been dismantled and rebuilt with new seals and gaskets, replacing any worn parts as required and new hoses fitted to cooling system.

He has also renewed or refreshed the entire braking system, front and rear suspension components and steering parts to ensure it’s as good as it possibly can be. It’s a fabulous car that genuinely wants for nothing.

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?
