Exceptionally original with a Triple AAA originality score by FSP

Finished Signal Red over a Black leather cabin, this splendid 1969 E-Type Series 2 Fixed Head Coupe is an incredibly well-preserved, unrestored car, offered from Serge Allaert's “They Are Only Original Once” collection. It was first delivered in the spring of 1969 to a Swedish customer, equipped with chrome wire wheels, a heated rear screen, 3.31 rear axle, and seat belts. The first owners affectionately nicknamed it “Edgar” after its registration EDG 773.

In the ensuing decades, Edgar enjoyed a cherished existence, fastidiously maintained in original condition, and its exceptional originality is what attracted Serge Allaert to add it to his collection in 2017. Wonderful details include richly broken-in black leather trim, a rarely seen British Leyland/Jaguar decal across the rear screen, correct Lucas headlamps, and Jaguar-branded rear splash guards. Any minor imperfections are worn with pride, enhancing this car's honest charm. Following his acquisition of Edgar in 2017, Allaert had a fresh clutch fitted, and in 2024, invoices show over €13.000 in servicing by V-Performance.

The accompanying history file includes the original Jaguar Export Sales factory, period and current service history, registration records, and Jaguar Club judging sheets documenting a top score of 98.5 points out of 100. Additionally, there is a copy of a 2017 inspection and appraisal report by FSP, which assigns the car a AAA originality score. A Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate confirms the as-delivered specifications and retention of the original engine block, cylinder head, and body.

It is quite rare to encounter any E-Type in such marvelous original condition, particularly a Series 2, and the eminently charming Edgar is now ready for a new custodian to continue the legacy of preservation it has enjoyed since day one.
