This 1974 Jaguar E-Type Series III Roadster V12 4-Speed represents a fine, restored example of one of the British car industry’s most celebrated postwar models. The Blue exterior is complemented by the various exterior updates introduced to the E-Type/XKE with the ‘Series III’ models, including flared front and rear wheel arches, a redesigned front grille, and an extended wheelbase compared to earlier iterations. The chrome wire wheels are paired with a set of period-correct white wall tires, complementing the Black soft top roof and the various exterior chrome trim pieces throughout the body.
The interior marries a combination of Tan leather upholstery with Black accent sections. A three-spoke leather steering wheel and US-market specification ‘Smiths’ analog gauges face the driver, with a leather upholstered armrest separating both occupants. An aftermarket audio headunit adds the convenience of modern connectivity to the cabin of this classic British tourer.
The highlight of the ‘Series III’ E-Type/XKE under the hood, a 5.3L naturally-aspirated V12 engine drives the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission, providing a truly engaging driving experience for those behind the wheel of this classic Jaguar. Previous restoration work, as reported by the current selling dealer, included refurbishment the exterior, interior, and engine, with documentation and photos of the process kept on file.
Under 41,000 miles are currently displayed on the odometer. Seller’s Disclosure, service records, owner’s literature, period literature, purchase documentation, restoration documentation, build sheet, tool kit, and multiple spare/removed parts accompany the sale.
