In my 35 years as a Classic Jaguar Specialist, I have never seen a survivor like this.

​The story is simple but impossible to replicate:

​Sold new in 1968. Bought by Peter and his wife in 1969, when the car was just 11 months old.

They specifically chose this 2+2 model so their six-year-old son, David, could travel in the back.

​Peter wasn't just a family man; he was a connoisseur. He had already owned an XK120, XK140, XK150, and a ’61 S1 Roadster. He knew his Jaguars.

He kept this specific Series 2 for 48 years before passing it to that same son, David, in 2017.

​ 41, 000 original miles.

Factory paint & original interior.

Supplying dealer’s sticker still in the rear window.

​It’s no wonder Jaguar Cars uses this exact vehicle as their reference benchmark, and why it is a multiple-time show winner Museum Grade Collectors Jaguar E-Type.
