    This Jaguar E-Type Series 2 Convertible was imported from Oregon (United States), where it underwent a complete “frame-off” restoration completed in January 2007 by European Body Work, at a cost of approximately $40,000.

    Its current owner acquired it later and imported it to France when he moved there in 2017. It is now registered as a classic car.

    ? The documentation is particularly comprehensive, including a Jaguar Heritage Trust certificate, import documents, and a substantial invoice history detailing the work performed since the restoration.

    Condition:

    ? The bodywork, fully restored in 2007, is in excellent condition. The Dark Blue paint offers excellent depth and uniformity. The chrome trim and spoke wheels are in excellent condition.

    The interior underwent a complete restoration in 2008 by Red Hot Interiors (over $10,000). The leather upholstery is in very good condition. The interior is well-maintained and all equipment is functional.

    ⚙️ The mechanical components are in good working order. Work performed in January 2021 included repairing the steering column and installing new chrome-plated spoked wheels fitted with Pirelli Collection tires. The undercarriage is sound and shows no signs of corrosion.
