Jaguar 'E' Type FHC.

Finished in Regency Red with black hide interior. Specification includes : Chrome Wire wheels. Whitewall tyres. Air conditioning. Moto Lita steering wheel. Front headrests. Sundym glass. ie Probably all the boxes ticked when this car was ordered new!!! 'E' Types look good - this one is a real head turner.

A very fine US specification 4.2 litre manual gearbox car, imported to the UK 2 years ago. Duty paid and UK registered she was the subject of a good restoration in the US before shipment here.

Everything works properly, although it must be said the air conditioning is showing its' age now. She drives very nicely and looks fantastic. Mileage listed is that displayed on the speedomteter - I cannot verify this.

The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
