More About This Classic...
Original UK Jaguar E-type Series 1.5 fixed-head coupe, built for performance by a sports car enthusiast. While the cabin has been customised, now fitted with sports bucket seats, the real excitement hides beneath the bonnet. Replacing the original 4.2 straight six with the torquier 3.8 XK engine, rebored to 4-ltr, paired with triple Webers and similar race-inspired components, this British classic has a track specification built for the road.
Today the E-type is presented as a highly usable classic, with a modernised interior for driver comfort, paired with a bespoke and race-inspired mechanical specification that offers track performance with road useability. Understanding the importance of a classic car's heritage, the owner has kept an impressive and detailed history file on the E-type, which also features a photographic record of the E-type restoration and projects across the years.
