Description

Jaguar E-Type has to be still one of the best designed cars is the world. This series II came to Sweden 2009 from Oregon in the USA and has in the last three years belonged to a large collection of exclusive cars. Probably never renovated but sometime it has been repainted in original Primrose Yellow, it’s now had some rough paint touch ups. Overall, however, the car is in a nice and honest used condition, and it is obvious that it had previous owners have managed it well.
The interior of black leather is neat with fine patina – with just a few details to work on to get really nice. The rear seat has a centimeter of damage to the backrest top, the mats are worn and the original knob has some cracks in the wood but nothing that stands out.
The car was drivable when came to the current owner three years ago, and has since just been started a few times each year. Unknown what has been renovated over the years but probably no major stuff the car remains very original. 4.2 liter Six is recently started and driven and the engine and gearbox sounds and runs well.

The left door and the tailgate may need a fine adjustment. Chrome in good condition to be the original. Dented headlight surrounds front headlight right and left side. Bumpers – not perfect but shiny and do not spoil a car in fine working condition. Wheels are good but not perfect.

Facts about the model

The Jaguar E-Type struck down as a bomb when it was presented on Genévesalongen 1961. The body was designed by aerodynamics-the mathematician Malcolm Sayer who came from the aircraft manufacturer Bristol. And certainly, the legacy of the aerospace industry is clearly visible with the karos sides shaped like wings and muzzle most like air intake to a reamotor. The Jaguar E-Type Series II was launched at Earls Court in October 1968 and as its predecessor it was available in three body models – open Roadster, Fixedhead Coupé and 2 + 2 Coupé. Series II was manufactured only between 1968 and 1970 – before being replaced by the heavier Series III with V12 engine.
