Beautiful Jaguar E-type V12 S3 performed in the gorgeous color British Racing Green, combined with a black leather interior. Equipped with the powerful V12 engine mated to an automatic gearbox.
This car was delivered new in New York USA and for the 4th E-type S3 V12 ever built. In 1991, the E-type imported from America to the Netherlands and registered on Dutch license plates.
The Coupe is in good condition and a fantastic car to drive.

Still enjoying the smooth ride in this car. Many repairs and upgrades done since purchased in March 2016 such as carburetors, ignition, differential, driveshaft electrical wiring, alturnator etc. Finally fitted a km/h speedometer, equiped car with Tripmaster, lot's of smaller cosmetics and using it on a regular basis (covered 4.500 km since purchased and participated in 6 vintage car rallyes). The only matter that bothers me, should I respray the car back into the original light blue metallic, time (and money) will tell.

Guten Tag Herr Blank,
ich habe den XKE V12 mit der Fahrgestellnummer :1S70002 und würde gerne wissen, ob bei ihrem Fahrzeug, die Fahrgestellnummer unter dem Heizungskasten eingeschlagen ist. Bei mir ist keine zu finden.
Freue mich über eine Rückmeldung.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Andreas Thumm

Hallo Herr Thumm, die Fahrgestellnummer ist in Fahrtrichtung rechts eingeschlagen (und für den TÜV nochmals auf Trägerplatte darunter), also über der Batterie. Unter dem Heizungskasten, ich habe alle Bilder nochmal angesehen, ist keine Nummer eingeschlagen. Hoffe meine Antwort hilft, Gruß Thomas Blank
