Good driver. I've always wanted one of these since the 1960's when I would race them on my HO set!

Seven Hills Motorcars is very proud to offer this absolutely spectacular 1970 Jaguar Series 2 E-Type Fixed Head Coupe with only 69,705 original miles. The car has a stunning paintjob, brilliantly refinished chrome, and a beautiful interior. It looks fantastic, runs well, and is a pleasure to drive. It is finished in the gorgeous color combination of Jaguar Racing Green over tan leather interior.

This is an excellent opportunity to own a very rare and highly desirable classic Jaguar. The market on Jaguar E-Type's is very hot right now, especially for premium examples like this car. One could easily buy this car now and sell it for more than the purchase price in years to come. The low mileage is verified not only by the condition of the car, but also the clear Ohio title that shows the mileage as "Actual." Please peruse all of the photos, video, and other information below to get a true sense of how exceptionally nice this Jaguar really is.

As a side note, this E-Type is not a dealer auction vehicle. We hand pick each car after careful inspection. Our Classics come from owners who expect their cars to go to someone that will give the vehicle the same care and attention as they did. We invite and encourage you to examine the car in person or have the car inspected. Please take the time to scrutinize each picture. We photograph each vehicle to the greatest extent so you can feel confident about your purchase. If you have a question about the Jaguar, just give us a call.

Exterior

The green metallic exterior is in beautiful driver quality condition. As one can see in the photos the finish has dazzling gloss, deep shine, and smooth finish. The chrome and brightwork on the car looks stunning with a bright and brilliant finish. The wire wheels and spinners are in excellent condition with a great finish and no curb rash. The Michelin X tires have plenty of tread left and are sized 185-15. There are no major blemishes that have been intentionally excluded from the photos, there may be a few tiny imperfections that were too small to show up in the photos, but nothing that is noticeable from about five feet away. As one can see in the many photos of the underside this Jaguar is very clean underneath.

Interior

The tan leather interior of the Jaguar looks utterly splendid. The dash is in excellent condition with no cracks or sun fading. The gauge faces are clean and the lenses are clear. The seats are in great condition with no split seams or rips. There is just a small amount of wear on in the typical spot on the bolster where the driver gets in and out. The carpet is also in nice condition with no rips, or holes. The door panels look excellent. This car has not been smoked in; there are obviously no burn marks or aroma of cigarettes what-so-ever.

The trunk area is very clean, detailed, and well-trimmed with a matching full size spare tire and matching chrome wire wheel.

Mechanical

This Jaguar E-Type seems to be in good mechanical condition. The inline six engine starts every time and idles smooth. The car drives nicely on the road and at highway speeds. In the video below one can observe the car accelerating on the highway up to about 70mph, braking to a stoplight, and going through some curves. Please note that there are no vibrations and the car performs quite well overall. The brakes are responsive and do not pull to one side or the other. The transmission shifts well, the shifter is tight, and does not pop out of gear. The clutch feels good. The headlights work as do the radio, indicators, dash lights, and odometer work. All of the gauges appear to work properly and even the clock runs. There are some items that do not work such as the blower for the heater, wipers, and horn. The brake light on the dash stays on. As with many other older carbureted cars it is cold blooded, but has started every time for us when the choke is used properly. As with many other older British cars it does have some fluid leaks. Also, the engine compartment is highly detailed and very correct as one can see in the photos. Not enough can be said as to how much of a pleasure it is to drive this Jaguar Fixed Head Coupe.

This 1970 Jaguar XKE Series II 2+2 was acquired by the current owner in 2002 as a non-running project, and it subsequently was subjected to a refurbishment that was completed in 2004. The car has been repainted in British Racing Green, the tan leather interior has been redone, and the 4.2-liter inline-six and the four-speed manual transmission have been rebuilt, according to the seller. Equipment includes triple Weber carburetors, 15″ wire wheels, four-wheel disc brakes, a wood-rimmed steering wheel, and an AM/FM radio. This XKE 2+2 is now offered on dealer consignment with service records, Jaguar-related literature, removed and spare parts, and an Ohio title.

The car was stripped, repaired, and repainted in British Racing Green during the aforementioned refurbishment. Exterior equipment includes sealed-beam open headlights, a louvered clamshell hood, dual side mirrors, bright trim, dual exhaust outlets, and wraparound chrome bumpers.

Chrome-finished 15″ wire wheels are secured by two-eared knock-offs and are mounted with 185–15 Michelin X radial tires. Braking is provided by four-wheel discs with inboard-mounted rear rotors.

The 2+2 cabin features seating surfaces that have been reupholstered in tan leather. Interior appointments include a color-coordinated center console, door panels, and carpeting as well as an AM/FM radio, seatbelts, a locking glovebox, a passenger-side grab handle, and black floor mats.

The wood-rimmed steering wheel fronts Smiths instrumentation including a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 5k-rpm redline as well as an analog clock and auxiliary gauges. The five-digit odometer shows 70k miles, approximately 2k of which were added under current ownership.

The rebuilt 4.2-liter inline-six has been updated with triple Weber carburetors. A pair of removed Zenith-Stromberg carburetors will accompany the vehicle along with other spare parts.

Power is routed to the rear wheels through a rebuilt four-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential.

The car’s chassis number is P1R43500, whereas the Ohio title omits the letter-P prefix. The title also carries a notation showing that it is a Replacement document.
