According to the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate that accompanies this extraordinary E-Type Series 3 V12 Roadster this car was supplied in September 1973 by Henlys of Manchester. It is a two-owner car with 75,000 miles recorded, which we believe to be correct. This example retains its original colour scheme of Signal Red with Black Leather and features a rare factory Hard-top in Black plus Chrome Wire Wheels. In our opinion this car just looks right, it would be very hard to re-create the mixture of its superb condition with just the right amount of wear to take any “show pony” sharp edges off.
In the hands of its most recent keeper since August 1986 when 34,000 miles were recorded the box file that holds the maintenance records is replete with invoices for parts and maintenance many of these are from regarded experts. The original Jaguar Passport to Service is present. In its lifetime this E-Type has enjoyed an engine rebuild. We have complied a table of works which shows over £50,000 of expenditure since 1986 excluding minor parts and this is supported by invoices.
If impeccable provenance and originality are top of your priority list and frankly when it comes to underpinning value these are prerequisites; then, this car is worthy of serious consideration. Plus, rarity has a big part to play and this is one of just 1,871 cars produced for the home market. We expect value of examples with this sort of pedigree to go on climbing.
