Supplied by St Helier Garages to the first owner in August 1972, this low mileage S3 roadster with manual gearbox remained in his ownership until late 2014, by which time the car had covered only 48,738 miles. In 2015 after we had supplied the car to the second owner we were asked to recommission the car after a period of little use, and to refresh the paintwork as necessary. In the history file there is an invoice that details the work carried out and which has resulted in maintaining the originality of the car. Since being recommissioned the roadster has been kept in a private collection, maintained and run on a regular basis. In addition the engine bay has been detailed resulting in an outstanding example of a fully documented, original low mileage two owner RHD roadster, complete with its original radio and tool kit.

The whole bodywork is in excellent condition, with new chrome wheels and tyres, the original steel wheels and hub caps accompany the car. The black leather interior is in extremely good, original condition with some patination which adds to the charm of the car. The car has been mechanically checked through by our Jaguar trained technicians providing a car that is not only technically pleasing but also ready to use. In overall excellent condition, a low mileage, low ownership V12 roadster that has never been restored. The car has fully documented ownership from new, original buff log book, most recent registration documents, together with recent invoices for work carried out by ourselves in 2015 totalling nearly £16,000 in recommissioning works.
