1973 Jaguar E-Type Series 3 V12 Coupe
Description
The Jaguar E-type, first released in 1961, took the world by storm when it was first released as a competitor to the likes of Ferrari and Aston Martin. Designed in a spectacularly beautiful muscular body, it really was unlike any other modern sportscar of the time. Even Enzo Ferrari once said, “Jaguar’s E-Type is the most beautiful car in the world”!
This E-Type, available here at Fine Car Co, is a Series 3 V12 Coupe model that first touched the roads of Britain in 1973. After being kept in sensational condition, covering only 41,000 miles, and having a fully complete service history, this really is a car that cannot be missed!
The alloy blocked 5.3l V12 produces 272 BHP and an exciting 349 lb/ft of torque. These were impressive figures in 1973, and the car only weighs a few pounds more than the smaller 4.2l engine that the V12 replaced
First supplied by HR Owen on 28th August 1973, this vehicle has matching numbers throughout and the all-important, desirable manual gearbox
Fitted with the original Webasto sunroof
The vehicle is provided with the original owner’s manual, extra wiring diagram, maintenance chart and even a parts catalogue
Upgraded to a new fantail exhaust, uprated starter motor and a Toad security system in 2009. While in 2010, it received new carpets and in 2013, a £1758 overhaul including 4 new rear springs
XJ motor services completed £5000 worth of work in 2016. This included a new water pump and a RE Opus ignition upgrade
Included in the sale is a tailored car cover, plus a spares kit including spark plugs and a full set of hoses
A very rare chance to own this genuine, low mileage E-Type with all documentation from over the years provided. Don’t miss out, log on and bid today!
