Our Jaguar E-Type MK3 V12 was delivered new in Belgium and put on the road in 1971. It was imported to France by British Leyland in 1983. Its current owner acquired it in 2014.
This example is in very good overall condition, thanks in particular to the special care given to its aesthetics and the extensive work carried out on it. This Jaguar E-Type, with its beige color, numerous chrome accents, spoked wheels and beige leather interior, has no notable flaws. The upholstery is in good condition, with a beautiful original patina.
Mechanically, this model has benefited from over €30,000 of work in recent years. The chassis and running gear have been overhauled, the ignition system overhauled and the carburettors re-sealed. The 272 hp V12 engine, combined with the manual gearbox, works perfectly. The power steering on this model is a real pleasure to drive.
The Jaguar E-Type, first introduced in 1961, became a true icon of British design thanks to its flowing, elegant lines. In 1971, the 2+2 model received the V12, a first for a Jaguar production car. This engine, developing 272 hp, brought a new dimension of performance and sophistication to the E-Type.
The 2+2 version boasts a longer wheelbase and a higher roof, offering more space inside, especially for rear passengers. The presence of a manual gearbox on this model is also noteworthy, as the majority of Type E V12s were equipped with an automatic gearbox.
In short, this 1971 Jaguar Type E 2+2 V12 is an excellent example of British heritage in automotive design and performance. With its beautiful patina, meticulous upholstery and V12 engine, it offers a unique and authentic driving experience. It's a great opportunity for any classic car enthusiast wishing to own a piece of automotive history.
