This roadster sat in a field for 12 years and has all of the expected weather affects. It runs well but is going through a budget restoration to get it back on the road.

A US delivery car, it was imported into the United Kingdom from Denmark in Summer 2016. Sold by the Classic and Sports Car Centre of Malton in March 2018. Seller's description below.
www.classic and sportscar.ltd.uk/Jaguar-E_Type-Series-II-4.2-Roadster/classic-cars-sold/3544

This stunning very original and completely standard Jaguar E Type Series II Roadster was built on the 17th March 1969 and left the factory in sable. The car is a matching numbers vehicle that was supplied new to a Don C Hardman and distributed from British Leyland New York. The E Type has spent almost all of its life in the US and came over to the UK, completing registration with the DVLA in September 2016. In early 2017 the Jaguar was taken to a well known Teesside specialists and was treated to £2,500 worth of work to include a brand new clutch, flywheel, new coolant hoses, two new engine mounts, two bonnet hinge bushes, eight new manifold studs, replacement crank, oil seal, sump gasket and exhaust rings.

TTU805H is an incredibly good driver with a superb strong engine holding exceptional oil pressure. The engine feels very fit, delivers impressive performance and although the car has its US specification carburettors, it really does go very well. The original four speed all synchromesh gearbox is first class, with lovely smooth changes up and down the gearbox and the E Type handles beautifully with comfortable road holding, nice steering and sharp, efficient brakes. The E Type records 41,000 kilometres on the speedometer and whilst we cannot guarantee this to be correct, the car does have all the signs of low mileage.

The body suggests this car has never had heavy use. The shell is very original with a beautiful clear underside. The floors are in excellent order, the external panels are lovely and straight and under the bonnet the space frame all appears original. The sable paintwork is lovely and sharp, the car clearly professionally painted in recent years with high quality chrome work. The hood is in excellent order, black leather seats are smart, as are the carpets, door cards and boot area. This would make a wonderful car for touring the continent and would then ideally stay in LHD format. TTU805H will be freshly MoT tested and serviced for its next owner.

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?
