Commentaires du vendeur sur 1969' Jaguar E Type Xke Roadster
The Jaguar E-Type, is a British sports car, which was manufactured by Jaguar Cars Ltd between 1961 and 1975. Its combination of beauty, high performance and competitive pricing established the model as an icon of the motoring world. At a time when most cars had drum brakes, live rear axles, and mediocre performance, the E-Type sprang on the scene with 150 mph and a sub-7 second 0-60 time, monocoque construction, disc brakes, rack and pinion steering, independent front and rear suspension, and unrivalled looks.The E-Type was based on Jaguar's D-Type racing car which had won the 24 Hours of Le Mans three consecutive years (1955-1957) and, as such, it employed the racing design of a body tub attached to a tubular framework, with the engine bolted directly to the framework.
On its release Enzo Ferrari called it "the most beautiful car ever made". In 2004, Sports Car International magazine placed the E-Type at number one on their list of Top Sports Cars of the 1960s. In March 2008, the Jaguar E-Type ranked first in The Daily Telegraph online list of the world's "100 most beautiful cars" of all time.
This particular XKE is a wonderful example of a very well maintained classic Jaguar. The engine is original numbers matching unit. It has been retrofitted with the more desirable triple SU carb setup from a series 1 giving it more horsepower and performance. This Jaguar XKE roadster has also been upgraded to a modern 5 speed transmission for improved highway touring. It has the correct original style red leather seats, chrome wire wheels, wood wheel, black canvas convertible top, jack, hammer. and black canvas boot cover. The overall condition is excellent, just perfect for local shows and comfortable use.
