JAGUAR E-TYPE SERIES 3 V12 ROADSTER

Pristine condition.

This May 1974 Jaguar E-Type Series 3 V12 Roadster, finished in striking Signal Red with a Black leather interior, is a truly exceptional and pristine example of one of the most iconic sports cars ever produced. With just 59,664 indicated miles and only four owners from new, this E-Type represents a rare opportunity to acquire a meticulously maintained classic.

The Series 1 E-Type, launched in March 1961, quickly cemented its place in automotive history, drawing design inspiration and engineering prowess from Jaguar’s Le Mans-winning D-Type. With a claimed top speed of 150 mph and a 0-60 mph sprint in a mere 7 seconds, it captivated the world and earned its reputation as one of the most beautiful sports cars ever made. Production of the E-Type continued until 1974, culminating in the powerful Series 3 V12 models.

This particular Roadster, offered by Autostorico, was acquired by its current Jaguar enthusiast owner in February 1997. Since then, it has undergone a comprehensive, no-expense-spared restoration. This extensive work included a complete rebuild of the engine and gearbox, a full respray, and a luxurious re-trim of the interior, featuring new seats, carpets, a pristine Walnut dashboard, and door cappings. Further enhancements include a new hood, a complete re-wire, and a thorough overhaul of the brakes and suspension, complemented by re-chromed brightwork.

The result is a car that remains in truly stunning condition and one of the finest examples available in Britain today. Beyond its show-stopping appearance, this E-Type Roadster also drives exceptionally well, offering an authentic and exhilarating classic driving experience.

The sale includes an extensive history file, complete with the current V5 certificate, numerous invoices, and other related documentation, providing a comprehensive record of its provenance and meticulous care.
