Seller's comments about 1966' Jaguar E-Type S1 Ots
The Jaguar E-Type is one of the most iconic cars of the 20th century. After its issue in 1961, the first significant up-grade of Jaguar’s sensational E-type occurred in 1964 with the launch of the 4. 2-litre version. Along with the bigger engine came a more user-friendly gearbox. The car’s external appearance did not change apart from the “4. 2” badging but under the skin, there were numerous details improvement. This particular exemplar was delivered new as a Left Hand Drive Open-Two-Seater with an Hardtop. It was bought by its current owner 23 years ago and modified to look like a very rare (only 12 originally produced) “Lightweight” Etype that were prepared for racing. The engine was prepared for “Fast Road”. Since then, the counter shows 02496 Km. This beautiful E-type is finished in Silver Grey with blue stripes and a black interior. The original seats were replaced by Cobra racing seats and the driving wheel by a Sparco model. It has a very sportive look. Chassis no. 1E11500 Body no. 4E2892 Engine no. 7E5612-9 Gearbox no.
