About this car
An early 3.8-litre E-Type fixed-head coupe from 1962, the year after the model's launch, finished in Indigo Blue over beige leather with wire wheels. It is right-hand drive and described as matching numbers, with Heritage certification.
The main change from original is an uprated five-speed Getrag gearbox, which makes long journeys easier. The original gearbox is said to be kept with the car. The last owner kept it from 1988, and it later received a show-winning restoration by a leading specialist.
The page gives no mileage (the listed 0 is not an odometer reading) and no price, which is on application.
