"A well-functioning and nicely renovated Jaguar, the car runs well and I see nothing that needs to be fixed, but the car is ready to use."

Description

The car was imported to Sweden from the United States in 2008 and ended up with a good friend of the current owner, who extensively renovated it. Following the renovation, the car was driven infrequently, and when the friend died in 2020, it was purchased by the present owner and added to the collection in 2021.
He wants the car to go to an enthusiast who will take care of this beautiful Jaguar because it is used far too little.

Facts about the model

Jaguar E-Type slog ner som en bomb när den presenterades på Genévesalongen 1961. Det här var sannerligen en superbil och den höjdes till skyarna. Basen i en E-Type är en självbärande monocoque och från början Jaguars 3,8-liters XK-motor som växte till 4,2 liter 1967. Karossen ritades av aerodynamik-matematikern Malcolm Sayer som kom från flygplanstillverkaren Bristol. Och visst, arvet från flygindustrin syns tydligt med karossidorna formade som vingar och nosen mest lik luftintaget till en reamotor.

Jaguar E-Type Series II lanserades på Earls Court i oktober 1968 och som sin föregångare gick den att få i tre karossmodeller – öppen Roadster, Fixedhead Coupé och 2+2 Coupé. Roadstern och den tvåsitsiga coupén hade fortfarande samma hjulbas som den ursprungliga Series I medan två plus tvåan var aningen längre.

Motorn var samma gamla trotjänare som fått hänga med ända sedan XK-tiden – den underbara raka sexan men man gjorde i alla fall luftintaget i nosen större för bättre kylning, samtidigt var också A-stolpen aningen mer tillbakalutad för mjukare linjespel. Utöver andra stötfångare, strålkastare utan plexiglaskåpor och de nya bakljusen under stötfångaren var mycket sig likt.

Series II som till stor del var resultatet av de allt strängare amerikanska trafiksäkerhetslagarna hade även aningen svagare motor för att klara de amerikanska miljölagarna. Jaguar E-Type med Series II tillverkades bara mellan 1968 och 1970 – innan den ersattes av den tyngre Series III med V12-motor och helt annan karaktär än de första båda generationerna.

  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
