Sellers description:
1974 Jaguar XKE Roadster Series 3, V-12. Most of these XKE's that were exported into the United States were mostly automatics. However, this Jaguar is fitted with an original 4-speed! Very rare. The car has reportedly ONLY (under) 21,000 original miles. This car still has it's original (complete) interior; door panels, dash, leather seats. All have a very nice Patina to them. The original chrome wire wheels are in excellent condition. The paint on this car shows really well with only a few minor imperfections (road chips, etc. very minor on this car!). The soft top is in an excellent condition. Mechanically, this car really drives and runs well with perfect oil pressure. No overheating issues. The car was just recently checked and had a good service. The brakes gone though, carburetors were rebuilt, etc. The sound of the engine is fantastic. It really runs smoothly. All body panels are the original ones. This is a rust free and accident free car. The car comes complete with the spare wheel and jack. This is a good, solid and honest car that is 'price-to-sell".
