⭕ VEHICLE SUMMARY

Effortless V12 power enveloped in a beautifully designed automotive masterpiece.

The Series 3 V12 models of the E-Type, released in 1961, represent a substantial evolution from the original version, signifying Jaguar's intention of becoming a producer of luxurious touring vehicles that retain strong performance. The V12 variants were primarily introduced for the demanding US market, offering increased power without significant weight increase, thanks to the race-engineered compact single-cam heads.

That seamless power delivery, enhanced cabin space, and a more comfortable ride helped sustain the E-Type's popularity in the United States, where it remains well-supported by specialists and enthusiast clubs. With a wider body and extended wheelbase, the Roadsters gained preference for their distinction as one of the few open-top V12 cars available during that era. Despite the visual enhancements and safety modifications, the key design elements that render this car one of the most visually appealing in history have been maintained, solidifying the E-Type's status as the final representative of the true analogue Jaguar sports cars.

This beautifully maintained 1974 Series 3 Roadster comes to market from 18 months with our vendor. It is finished in "British Racing Green", featuring a "Biscuit" leather interior and a manual gearbox, was first registered in the UK in 2018 and has been converted to right-hand drive. It comes equipped with wire wheels and lacks the bulky exterior fittings common in the US market, in addition to having a stainless steel exhaust system and an electronic ignition.

Since 2023, the car has undergone £2,000 worth of maintenance and is exempt from road tax and MOT; however, it includes an MOT valid until August 2025 and was serviced just 50 miles ago.

The car comes to market with a keen reserve which overly compensates for its imported status, and thus provides an affordable route into E-Type roadster ownership.
