On August 25th, 1961, Jaguar's Coventry workshop produced this stunning Cotswold Blue XKE OTS, chassis 875400. Destined for the Canadian market, this left-hand drive Series 1 E-Type remained in Canada for 51 years before traveling to California. In 2001, after forty years of spirited driving, this iconic roadster underwent an exhaustive, meticulous restoration by RX Autoworks.

Resplendent in its original hue of Cotswold Blue and featuring a red interior, the freshly restored E-Type made its post-restoration debut at the All British Field Meet, where it was awarded "Best Debuting Restoration". Sparingly used since its award-winning restoration, this numbers-matching Jaguar remains in remarkable condition, with care taken over the last 14 years to maintain and care for this beautiful XKE. The paint remains vibrant and the interior is fresh, testaments to the quality of the restoration. Included in the sale of this iconic roadster, is an extensive restoration file compiled by RX Autoworks along with a Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate.

This Series 1 example of one of the most iconic cars of the 1960s has been carefully maintained and is capable of being displayed at many events and driven on road rallies, or simply enjoyed on spirited weekend drives.
