Auction description:
Nurburg Ring, Germany
Saturday 11th August 2007
1963 Jaguar E Type Competition Coupe
Registration Number: EU registered Chassis Number: 888944
This very fast and reliable E Type competition car was built by German Jaguar race car specialist Hajo Broesch in 1999 from the chassis up at huge expense. The donor car was a rust free Californian 1963 E Type Series 1 coupe. It is described as accident damage-free by the vendor with the body consisting of 100% original panels, while the engine produces over 300bhp and is mated to a four speed close ratio gearbox. The car also has a torsion differential and larger disc brakes with Girling calipers conforming with FIA regulations. An oil cooler and a bigger radiator were fitted in 2006 together with new tyres and an FIA specification petrol tank. Last year the vendor, who has owned the car for seven years, competed in just five races; once at Spa, where it finished first in class, twice at Hockenheim, and twice at the NŸrburgring. This Jaguar is race ready, 'on the button' and comes with current FIA papers.

Dieser rennfertige Jaguar E-Type basiert auf einem aus Kalifornien importierten Coupe der ersten Serie. Der Motor wurde auf Ÿber 300 PS leistungsgesteigert und ŸbertrŠgt seine Kraft Ÿber ein 4-Gang Renngetriebe. Der derzeitige Besitzer, der diesen E-Type bereits seit 7 Jahren fŠhrt, setzte den Jaguar letztes Jahr in lediglich 5 Rennen ein: in Spa, wo er den Klassensieg errang, zweimal in Hockenheim und zweimal am NŸrburgring. Ein starker E-Type in hervorragendem Zustand mit aktuellen FIA-Papieren.

Estimate ­ 85,000 - ­ 95,000
