1968 JAGUAR E-TYPE SERIES I 2+2 LHD

We sold this 4.2-litre Jaguar E-type Series 1 to its present owner in 2015 and since then it has hardly been used, so some recommissioning may be required. The car was imported from Colorado in the USA in 2014 and first registered on 1st October 2015. The odometer is showing 67,397 miles, and the V5C indicates only one registered keeper in the UK.

According to the car's Heritage Certificate, it was manufactured in April 1968, originally finished in Light Blue with a black interior, and despatched on 2nd May 1968 to Jaguar Cars, New York. The car is accompanied by a 1998 registration document from Colorado, and an HMRC letter including a NOVA reference number, but there is no service history.

The vendor tells us that the E-type has an electronic distributor with a new cap and leads along with an overhauled brake servo, and new door rubbers and a rear window rubber have been fitted. A respray is believed to have been carried out while the car was in the USA. We have been advised that the wiper switch is broken and the heater is not working.
