1973 Jaguar XKE Series III OTS - 42k Original Miles! Great Driving Car REDUCED

This exceptional Series III Roadster has covered just 42,000 miles from new. In the care of a long term owner the car was purchased in 1996 with just 35,000 miles on it, o in the intervening 20 years he only put 5,000 miles on the car. We recently acquired the car from his estate, nd have found it to be an exceptional original car. It runs and drives absolutely perfectly, have personally put about 2000 miles on the car taking it to a 2 concours and driving it on local tours, nd its really a great car!  The exhaust note is simply intoxicating, t handles perfectly, hifts smoothly, rakes work perfectly, ts fast and nimble, oes down the road straight and true. The car is in excellent condition throughout, nd the seats exhibit just the right amount of patina. They would redye well but we have chosen to leave them as is. The often collapsed head rest foam is in good order here owing to its indoor storage. There are some minor paint chips here and there and a scratch on the drivers side of the bonnet, ut these are visible only upon close inspection and are easily touched up, had the paint professionally matched, hich is included, nd have done some touch up, ut with more time I think you can avoid a repsray, hichis alwyas good on an original survivor like this.  All gauges work but the tach does stick from time to time. Car runs cool and does not overheat even on very hot days. This unusual color combination is quite striking in person, am not sure these photographs really do the car justice. There are many hard to find original items under the hood that are often gone in these cars such as the vacuum hose connector, he undercarriage shield, nd much more. This is really a pretty amazingly well preserved example. I have found no rust. The original top does have a few tears on the drivers side where it stresses when collapsed, ut otherwise this car needs nothing but a happy new owner. Books, ools, nd records, ccompany the car. I have priced the car to sell under the market for these cars allowing for you to do the minor touch up need and be ahead of the game. This really is one of the best Series III Jags your going to find, car you will be glad you bought and will put a big smile on your face every time you get behind the wheel. This is the one to buy if you are looking for Series III in something other than Red or BRG. This is a truly great car that has been loved and maintained properly its whole life.  I would love to add this car to my collection, ut have no more room, nd its not supposed to be my job to keep every great car I get in.  
The stunning color combination on this fully decked out 4 speed factory A/C car make this a sure bet for increased appreciation as the XKE market continues to accelerate.
