About this car

This is a Series II E-Type 2+2, the longer-bodied four-seat coupe that Jaguar introduced in 1966. It has the 4.2-litre XK straight-six and an automatic gearbox, a combination aimed at relaxed touring rather than the sharper manual roadsters. The car is a right-hand-drive home-market example, first registered on 14 May 1969, and is finished in British Racing Green with a green leather interior.

It has had several owners and is described as very original. The current keeper, a Jaguar enthusiast, bought it in 2011 and has maintained it throughout, with recent work carried out by FW Motors, a classic car specialist in Watlington. A history file accompanies the car, including the current V5, previous MOT certificates and numerous invoices.
