Registration no. UTH 56

Engine no. 7R-14237-9

Sold for £18,400 inclusive of Buyer's Premium

One of the last of its kind manufactured, this 4.2-litre Series 2 Coupé was sold new via Henlys in Bristol and first registered 'TWV 454J'. In 1976 the car was sold to a Mr M Bevan who kept it for the next 12 years. We understand that the speedometer was changed at 30,000 miles; expired MoTs on file dating back to 1977 confirming the total mileage of 64,000. Restored in the late 1990s, the E-Type resided in Cyprus for a few years before being purchased in 2000 by J K Engineering of Biggleswade, from whom it was purchased by the current vendor. J K Engineering have continued to maintain the car, which is described as in generally good/very good condition and driving very well. Finished in Signal Red with black interior, this well documented E-Type Coupé is offered with JDHT certificate, sundry restoration invoices, MoT to June 2011 and Swansea V5.

Not sure what happened to the old listing for this car - it was in XKEdata when I bought it!
