Chassis number: 1S 2491 BW

# of cylinders: 12

Transmission: Automatic

Engine capacity: 5343

Body colour: Azure Blue

LHD/RHD: Right-hand Drive

Registration number: OWC 90M

Engine number: 7S 13329 SB

Interior colour: Cinnamon Leather

Odometer Reading: 54364 miles

Stunning, UK-supplied, right-hand drive, automatic Series 3 OTS that has covered less than 55,000 miles

A matching numbers car from October 1973 as confirmed by the Jaguar Heritage Certificate

Superbly finished in a deep coat of Azure Blue over Cinnamon leather with Biscuit carpets

Gleaming chrome wire wheels and smart engine bay. Superbly detailed throughout

Quite recently in a private collection. Remarkable condition. Museum quality

54,364 miles (atoc). Will have a fluid levels check, road test and MOT prior to being offered for sale

We are pleased to offer this original 1973 UK-supplied, right-hand drive, automatic E-Type Series 3 Roadster which, according to its Jaguar Heritage Certificate, was built on 23/10/73, finished in Azure Blue with a Dark Blue interior and dispatched to Lex Motors of Chelmsford on 6/11/73. Prior to our vendor, the Jaguar has been enjoyed by four owners, the most recent of which, Graham Dacre, kept it in his private collection. It appears to have been hardly used over recent years as the MOT Certificate from August 2009 shows 53,712 miles and the odometer indicates 54,364 currently. In fact, it appears to have only covered two (2) miles in the last three years.

In some colours, the Series 3 can look a little portly, however, this striking shade of Azure Blue really suits the car and when complemented by the Navy Blue soft top and tonneau, the chrome wire wheels and the refurbished Cinnamon interior, this is a very good looking E-type. Shut lines and bonnet fit are to factory standard and the chrome work and detailing look showroom fresh.

The car is accompanied by its Operating, Maintenance and Service Handbook, the wiring diagram, a maintenance/ lubrication wall chart in the original pouch, the Heritage Certificate, its V5C and a fresh MOT.

This is a low ownership, low mileage, exceptionally well presented Series 3 in a delightful colour combination and would grace any collection of classic Jaguars.

The Jaguar Legacy Collection.

A carefully collated collection of landmark sporting Jaguars from the past 65 years, each one bringing something special, museum quality, very low mileage, value for money motoring or, some, simply being the 'best of breed'.

We are pleased to offer this original 1973 UK-supplied, right-hand drive, automatic E-Type Series 3 Roadster which, according to its Jaguar Heritage Certificate, was built on 23/10/73, finished in Azure Blue with a Dark Blue interior and dispatched to Lex Motors of Chelmsford on 6/11/73. Bought from us in 2020, and prior to our then vendor, the Jaguar has been enjoyed by four owners, the most recent of which, Graham Dacre, kept it in his private collection. It appears to have been hardly used over recent years as the MOT Certificate from August 2009 shows 53,712 miles and the odometer indicates 54,638 currently.
