This classic Series 1, 3.8-litre, UK-supplied, Fixed-head Coupé dates from early 1964 and was factory finished in Opalescent Dark Green with Suede Green Leather. We understand that it has been enjoyed by four previous owners and the indicated mileage stands at 81,509. It has been with our vendor since 2014 and has formed part of his collection kept in a heated and dehumidified facility. It's been maintained by the current owner, an ex-Jaguar apprentice, and is in original unmolested condition. Whilst it has been used sparingly, it has been run up and moved regularly.

The history file contains the original registration documents from two previous owners and the current owner with MOTs back to 2014 and an MOT history back to 2010.

We understand from our vendor that the Jaguar remains fully original and the bodywork and chrome are excellent for an unrestored car, however, the engine bay and interior display a well-earned patina and the car has been sensibly guided to allow for some recommissioning.
