Lot Ended
Description
LHD;
imported in 2017; new grey hood; seems to start and drive as is should while
driving around on site
Manufactured
on 9th February 1973, this E-Type was originally supplied to British
Leyland Motors on 11th November 1974, presented with a Sable Brown
exterior,
biscuit interior and a black roof (now with a new grey replacement) and
fitted with an automatic gearbox.
The car
eventually found its way to California, whereby the vendors partner imported the
car to the UK in February 2017 for the sum of $59,000 plus shipping and has
stayed in the same family since. All documents showing the import details are
present with the car, including a copy of the owner’s logbook from
California.
Very little
history is with the car but the service book is present although not
stamped. The handbook pack is complete with its original identification plate
which is present in the back of the service book and there is a Jaguar Heritage
certificate present dated December 2016, which confirms the original
spec.
Showing only
49,723 miles, we can not verify this, but the condition of the car does
suggest this could well be possible.
Jaguar E-Type Series III’s are fast becoming recognized as the
best model to drive and after getting in this one and giving it a
drive around the site to photograph and video, it is easy to see
why.
