About this car

This is a 1966 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 4.2 roadster, the car that paired the original shape with the more tractable 4.2-litre engine and a better gearbox. It is finished in Artic White with a black interior and has a manual gearbox.

The car is described as matching-numbers and was repatriated from the USA. It keeps a number of original features, including its factory-fitted black vinyl hood.

The page says a considerable amount has been spent on it with a recognised UK Jaguar specialist since its return, and many invoices accompany the car. It shows 69,000 miles. The price is not stated.
