About This Vehicle

A beautifully presented and highly desirable 1967 Jaguar 3.4 S Type manual with overdrive and the sought after addition of power steering, offering an exceptional blend of period charm and usability. Supplied new to Wadhams Ltd of Cowes as their official demonstrator, this is a particularly well provenanced example with a long and interesting history.

Finished in elegant Old English White with a striking red leather interior, the car has been cherished by its last owner for over 33 years and only 3 previous owners. In the early 1990s it was the subject of a comprehensive restoration, supported by detailed photographic records. The work included a bare shell rebuild, full repaint, re chroming and a 'Dinitrol' treated rust protection, and waxed underbody. The interior was fully refurbished to a high standard, retaining its classic character with beautifully presented red leather seats, a polished 'Walnut' veneer dashboard and matching door cappings.

Mechanical attention has been equally thorough. In later years the engine, gearbox and rear suspension have all been overhauled. The car has also been thoughtfully upgraded for modern classic use, including Coopercraft front brakes, uprated suspension, hydraulic power steering and a Moto Lita steering wheel, all enhancing the driving experience while respecting the car’s originality.

The body and paintwork present exceedingly well, with a deep lustre and impressive shine. The car sits on chrome wire wheels and benefits from the desirable 'Webasto' sliding sunroof, adding to its period appeal. The underside appears solid and well protected, reflecting careful maintenance throughout its life. It has clearly been maintained regardless of cost.

Accompanying the car is a substantial and impressive history file, including invoices, receipts, previous MOT certificates and written correspondence dating back many years. It also retains its original handbook, original service book and even the original Jaguar S Type factory brochure, a rare and valuable addition.

Often overlooked, the S Type is in many respects superior to the Mk2, benefiting from E Type derived independent rear suspension with inboard brakes, delivering a notably more refined ride and improved handling. This example drives superbly, powered by the legendary Jaguar 3.4 litre twin cam straight six engine with twin carburettors, producing the unmistakable sound and character expected of a 1960s Jaguar.

Now classed as a historic vehicle, it benefits from free road tax and MOT exemption, although it will be supplied with a fresh 12 months MOT for peace of mind. An exceptional opportunity to acquire a beautiful very well maintained and highly usable example of this increasingly appreciated Jaguar sporting saloon.
