Introduction
Colin Bashford
Even today, the E-Type remains one of the most beautiful cars ever built and the Series 2 example is no exception.
With a production run from 1961 to 1974, the E-Type gathered many admirers, including Enzo Ferrari himself. Based on the D-Type, it had racing in its DNA. Jaguar claimed a 0-60 mph time of under 7 seconds and a top speed of 150 mph. The E-Type was available as both a convertible roadster and a fixed-head coupé.
This particular UK car is a 1969 Series 2 Roadster and is offered as part of an estate sale, having been owned since 1990.
The car underwent a fully documented nut-and-bolt restoration between February 2018 and August 2021 - there's a huge number of invoices in the history pack covering engine parts, to body and interior items. The cost of this has been significant with around £116k having been spent, however, as this car is now part of a deceased estate, and as such it comes with a very low reserve according to market conditions, making it a very attractive long term investment.
Importantly the E-Type comes with a heritage certificate and even a current MOT valid until 20 May 2025.
This listing was written from information supplied by Colin after meeting Roddy the custodian, and having visited and photographed the vehicle.

Hi Roddy, so you know what work was done to the engine?
Hi,

Thanks,
Roddy.
Is it definitely matching numbers? Cylinder Head, block, casting number, gearbox, back axle and body?
Yes, all original restored parts put back as they were.
Hi
There has been a change of Gearbox before John purchased the car. Just came across the Heritage Certificate Request form.
