About This Vehicle

1969 Jaguar E-Type Series 2, 4.2 Coupe 2+2. manual. Genuine 55,000 Miles

This original UK, RHD Manual example is an exceptional and extremely original example of the iconic Jaguar E-Type Series 2 Coupe presented in outstanding condition and showing a genuine 55,000 miles from new. With only two recorded previous owners, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a truly unspoilt car.

Finished in Glorious 'Cotswold' Blue, the paintwork is virtually unmarked, displaying superb lustre and depth of shine. The bodywork is exceptional, with near perfect, factory typical correct panel gaps, clearly reflecting a car that has never been totally stripped or rebuilt, a level of originality seldom found today. The interior remains beautifully preserved, featuring excellent original Connolly black leather seats, a perfect headlining, and well-preserved original trim. The always admired E Type dashboard retains all the original switchgear and dials, crisp and clear, all chrome work is excellent and complements the car’s elegant lines perfectly. The engine bay is immaculately clean, highly original, and correctly presented, while the underside, including sills, floors, and structural areas, remains very original, solid, and well rust-protected. The original tool kit and bag sits in the boot along with the original spare wheel.

This super Jaguar has benefitted from extensive recent mechanical work carried out only a few miles ago, including, cylinder head overhaul and conversion to unleaded fuel, new timing chain gears and tensioners, clutch, clutch slave cylinder, gearbox overhaul, including new bearings, carburettor overhaul and balancing, rear suspension overhaul including new Spax shock absorbers, rear springs, brake calipers and discs, track rod ends, ball joints, anti-roll bar links and bushes, propshaft rebuild, rear suspension cradle mountings, all new servo and water hoses, fuel pump, battery, electronic ignition fitted, high-torque starter motor, recent new tyres and full engine service

The car has been maintained regardless of cost, with substantial expenditure over the years to ensure it drives exactly as an E-Type should.

Accompanied by a comprehensive history file including service and repair invoices, receipts, previous MOT certificates, old tax discs, and original handbooks with wallet.

A truly outstanding, unmolested Jaguar E-Type offering exceptional originality, condition, and provenance, ideal for the discerning collector or serious enthusiast.

Although MOT exempt as classed as a historic vehicle, the car has a current advisory MOT until February 2027 for added peace of mind

Viewing is highly recommended.

Part exchange considered.
