Description

The Jaguar E-Type was unveiled for the first time on 15 March 1961 in Geneva to international press acclaim. Sir William Lyons, Jaguar's founder, realised he had something very special in his hands and overnighted a second car from Coventry to Switzerland so that he could do more testing at the show.

The E-Type was a revolutionary car in many ways, but it was Malcolm Sayer's magnificent bodywork that set it apart from all the other cars on the road. With its streamlined headlamps, long sculpted nose and centred twin exhaust, it was unrivalled and remains a unique proposition today. The E-Type is still considered by many to be one of the most beautiful cars of all time, with Enzo Ferrari famously describing it as "the most beautiful car in the world".

But it wasn't just its looks that made the E-Type a revelation: with a launch price of around £2,250 (about £38,000 in today's money), it was surprisingly affordable. Dig a little deeper into the car's technical details and you'll discover that it featured monocoque construction, independent rear suspension and 4-wheel disc brakes: all very advanced features for the 1960s.

The Jaguar E-Type's 3.8-litre in-line six-cylinder engine took part in five Le Mans victories for Jaguar in the 1950s (on the Jaguar C-Type and D-Type) and, with its 265bhp, is no slouch by today's standards. The car was claimed to be capable of reaching 150mph, which for a time made it the fastest production car in the world.

This example was sold in Belgium in 2017. Long before that, British Motor Holding in Canada handed this car over to its first owner on 18 September 1968. This was one of the first Series II models to roll off the production line in August 1968. It was fully restored to its original condition in 2002, as attested by the attached invoices. The bodywork is straight with perfect panels, the finish and chrome details are also perfect. The solid chassis shows no signs of corrosion. The mechanicals are more than perfect, guaranteeing trouble-free driving and use. The car is finished in its original colour, Signal Red, with black leather trim. The interior is fantastic and shows no signs of wear. All of this has of course been certified by the Jaguar Heritage Trust. This is an excellent example that has been meticulously restored in keeping with its heritage.

The Jaguar is powered by a 4.2-litre in-line 6-cylinder engine, in this case mated to a four-speed manual gearbox. The engine works beautifully, it's delightfully smooth and sounds fantastic. Performance is also impressive, with 269bhp. The suspension and brakes are also in good condition and offer a pleasant driving experience.

The car is 'Matching Numbers' and has a great restoration record
