Auction description:
The Silverstone Classic Sale 2016
1973 Jaguar E-Type Series III 2+2 Coupe
Lot No.: 540
Registration: UML 475M
Chassis Number: LS 51970 BW
Engine Number: 7512647SA
Number of cylinders: 12
CC: 5343
Year of Manufacture: 1973
Estimate (£): 35,000 - 40,000

UML 475M was originally registered in August 1973 and was completely rebuilt by XK Engineering in Coventry in 1996, who also changed the car's colour from Blue to its current classic E-Type Red and reset the odometer at this point. The current owner purchased the car in 2002 from Eagle E-Types with a number of upgrades including stainless steel tailpipes, halogen headlights, uprated fans and radiator, electric ignition and cavity wax spray.

This super Series III, 2+2 has been lightly used recently and only covered just over 5,000 miles since 1996. Having had just three owners in total, and freshly MoT'd this cracking Jaguar looks in good shape and presents superbly in Carmen Red with a biscuit interior. These practical 2+2s offer a great route to E-type ownership.
