1967 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 4. 2 Roadster
A UK supplied, right hand drive car from new
Estimate
£60, 000 - £80, 000
Registration No: AUB 48E
Chassis No: 1E1819
MOT: Exempt
An original UK Home Market, Right Hand Drive car first registered in swinging 60's London
Comprehensively restored during the 1980's by Rawdon Restorations and subsequently a previous concours winner during the 1990's
Featured in a Classic & Sports Car Magazine artcle in 1997 in which it was reviewed and driven by John Surtees
Meticulously maintained and sensibly upgraded by the long term current owner and rated as an 'excellent' driver's car
Among the last century's great motoring icons, Jaguar's E-type has always inspired loyalty and devotion. Born out of the fabulous D-type racer, the model soon acquired a strong competition heritage of its own. Launched at the 1961 Geneva Salon, the Big Cat proved faster and more glamorous than virtually any production rival. Certainly, few could match its reputed 150mph top speed. At a time when Ferrari's lauded 250SWB and 250GTO made do with 'live' rear axles, the E-type utilised a sophisticated independent rear set-up with inboard disc brakes. While, rack and pinion steering enhanced the monocoque chassis's excellent roadholding and handling; putting it light years ahead of American designs like the Corvette. Revised in 1964, the E-type gained a torquier 4235cc powerplant and four-speed all-synchromesh gearbox of Jaguar's own design.
