Description:
Full restoration completed in January 2023
Mileage believed to be genuine
Presented in Opalescent Maroon and complemented by an all-new beige leather, one of the most striking colours Jaguar ever applied to the E-Type, this 4.2 litre manual example has just finished a comprehensive restoration by our vendor, the proprietor of a workshop and restoration business. This matching numbers example for which a Jaguar Heritage search has confirmed the car was originally supplied to the UK before it was shipped, at some point in its early life, to the US. The car is showing just 45,144 miles and a borescope and compression test leads the vendor to believe this mileage is, in his professional opinion, indeed correct. Due to the completion date of the restoration, for which our vendor explains has cost him a small fortune with no expense spared, this car will arrive to auction having been briefly tested on the road but predominantly on a rolling road to ensure the paintwork presents unmarked, as it did when it left the booth. Provided with an MoT test certificate for peace of mind, even the period plates have only been applied to the rear so the new owner can choose whether to apply a transfer to the front bonnet or not. Restored as a project for which the vendor enjoyed the journey rather than the destination, this example is offered at what would be considered half the build cost. Offered in a stunning colour combination with the added advantage of that glorious 4.2 litre engine and a manual gearbox, but for some initial running in there are few better ways spend summer days other than driving a Series I½ E-Type.

Good luck with this car. The car sits way too low as the resonators almost touching ground. Looks like the tyres are too small. But I reckon this alone will not solve the problem.....
