Sellers description:
1971 JAGUAR XKE V-12 COUPE 2+2. THIS IS A STUNNING EXAMPLE OF THIS JAGUAR WHICH IS DRIVEN QUITE OFTEN BY ITS PRIVATE OWNER. THIS PARTICULAR JAGUAR YOU ARE VIEWING HAS UNDERGONE A 2 YEAR BODY UP RESTORATION WHICH WAS FINISHED IN 2002. IT WAS AN ORIGINAL SHEET METAL CALIFORNIA CAR AND WAS COMPLETELY RUST FREE BEFORE THE RESTORATION AND REMAINS SO TODAY. THIS BEAUTIFUL JAGUAR WAS ALSO NEVER INVOLVED IN A COLLISION. THE BRITISH GREEN PAINT WAS PROFESSIONALLY APPLIED, WET SANDED AND BUFFED TO A BRILLIANT SHINE AND STILL REMAINS STUNNING AND VERY SHOW WORTHY TODAY. ALL OF THE CHROME AND TRIM ITEMS REMAIN ORIGINAL THEY HAVE NOT BEEN REPLATED. ALL OF THE GLASS IN THE CAR IS ORIGINAL. ALL OF THE DOORS OPEN AND CLOSE EXCELLENT. THIS JAGUAR HAS THE MUCH SOUGHT AFTER AND SPECIAL ORDERED CHROME SPOKE WHEELS WITH NEW TIRES AND TUBES. I THINK YOU WILL AGREE THE EXTERIOR OF THIS JAGUAR IS BEAUTIFUL TO SAY THE LEAST. THE LIGHT SADDLE COLORED LEATHER INTERIOR IS ALSO IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE FRONT SEATS HAVE BEEN REUPHOLSTERED BUT THE REAR SEATS STILL REMAIN ORIGINAL. THE CARPET, DOOR PANELS, HEADLINER AND DASH ALL REMAIN IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. HOW ABOUT THE REAR SEAT BACK WHICH MOVES FORWARD FOR MORE SPACE TO POSSIBLY ACCOMMODATE MORE LUGGAGE.EVERYTHING IN THIS INTERIOR WORKS WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE A/C AND THE CLOCK. THE A/C DOES NOT HAVE THE CONDENSOR IN PLACE UNDER THE HOOD BUT THE OWNER DOES HAVE ONE WHICH DOES GO WITH THE CAR. THIS JAGUAR HAS THE SPECIAL ORDERED MANUAL GEARBOX WITH 4 SPEEDS FORWARD AND ONE REVERSE. IN THE REAR COMPARTMENT YOU WILL FIND ANOTHER CHROME SPOKE WHEEL WITH A NEW TIRE. UNDER THE HOOD OF THIS BEAUTIFUL VEHICLE IS THE HEART AND SOUL OF THE E TYPE JAGUAR. THE MASSIVE V-12 ENGINE WHICH WAS COMPLETELY AND PROFESSIONALLY REBUILT BY A BRITISH MASTER MECHANIC AT BRITANNIC AUTOS. THIS V-12 RUNS EXCELLENT. AT THIS TIME THIS JAGUAR HAD A NEW ELECTRONIC IGNITION SYSTEM INSTALLED, A NEW HIGH CAPACITY ALUMINUM RADIATOR INSTALLED, NEW SHOCKS INSTALLED, ALL NEW WEATHER STRIPPING AROUND THE DOORS AND WINDOWS WERE INSTALLED AS WELL AS NEW FLOOR MATS. AS YOU MIGHT GUESS THIS STUNNING JAGUAR HAS BECOME A REGULAR SHOW WINNER. THE OWNER HAS INCLUDED WITH THIS VEHICLE A CAR COVER, 2 EXTRA CHROME SPOKE WHEELS, ORIGINAL AIR FILTERS AND ELEMENTS, ORIGINAL RADIATOR AND AN EXTENSIVE COLLECTION OF ABOUT 10 BOOKS ON THE HISTORY OF THE E TYPE JAGUAR.

The car was sold by a Lotus dealer located in Toronto at the end of July 2011 and transported with a container ship from Canada to Europe. The sale was conducted without inspection, based solely on photo and mutual trust.

This proved successful and the car responded absolutely to the expectations. The car was picked up at the quay in Oslo September 2011 and driven directly to its new home and has still the same owner in 2019.
