Descendant of the mythical XK series, the Jaguar E-Type is presented, from 1961, as the new sport/luxury car of the English firm. Its design is due to Sir William Lyons and the aerodynamicist Malcolm Sayer. Initially available with the 3.8L engine of the XK150, the range was expanded in 1964 to include a second engine with a capacity of 4.2L.
The model presented here left the factory on September 14, 1965 and was registered for the first time in January 1966. Equipped with the 4.2L engine of 268 horsepower, the car shows a nice patina of use. Its current owner has owned it since 2003 and bought it in Canada. He has spent more than 30 000€ on maintenance and restoration. The brakes were redone at that time as well as the engine hoses and many other elements. The floor has been rebuilt by the body shop Lecoq.
Today, the car has a nice patina. The black paint was redone a few years before its purchase. Not having been driven much since 2003, it looks like it did when the work was done. The interior is in very good condition. It comes with a valid technical control. It is ready to take the road.
