About this car

This 1971 Series 3 E-type began life in the United States as a 2+2 coupe. It has since been exported, converted to an open two-seater (OTS) and restored, which makes it an unusual route to a V12 roadster.

It is finished in Old English White over black trim and sits on deep-dish wire wheels. The engine was rebuilt in 2010, and the page says the car has covered under 7,000 miles in the last 15 years. A period-styled modern radio with Bluetooth, hands-free and uprated speakers has been fitted.

The restoration was carried out by recognised specialists, and the car has been prepared by E-Type UK.
