BL Radio. Wire Wheels & Accessories Appropriately Preserved - An Outstanding Driving & Presented E-Type Properly Kept and Maintained by the Previous Owner 2006 Bare Metal Re-Paint. No RUST and No Filler Found Powerful 5. 3L V12 Engine. Open Tourer Recognized in the Jaguar XK Registry Introduced in 1961. the E-Type roadster proved to be an immediate success. Designed under the guidance of Sir William Lyons. the car was a longer and lower version of Jaguar's D-Type. Manufactured between 1961 and 1975. its combination of good looks. high performance. and competitive pricing established the marquee as an icon of 1960s motoring. On its release Enzo Ferrari called it "The most beautiful car ever made". UC1S20676BW was completed on May 24. 1972 and dispatched on June 15th. destined for the United States through British Leyland Motors. Inc. of New York. finished in elegant Pale Primrose Yellow over complimenting Black leather upholstery. These open-headlight Series III Roadsters are often considered the best driving and most refined models of the entire lineup. Today. this stunningly preserved example shows just over 55. 00miles. which are believed to be original. The overall condition reflects that of a well-kept high quality "driver" example. During the mid-2000's. the E-Type received a sympathetic light restoration including a bare metal re-paint. There was no rust and no filler found and the gaps are very straight throughout. The exterior's paintwork and chrome displays bright and clear - showing only a few minor blemishes from use and cabin's seating/carpeting presents nearly as new along with the untorn black top and boot cover. Being an early Series III. this car is fitted with the very desirable slim chrome bumpers. and lack the large rubber bumperettes which beset the later examples. Complementing the overall factory appearance is an original British Leyland AM/FM radio mounted in the factory dash and console with original period air conditioning unit. Bright chrome wire wheels and redline tires complete the look. including a matching spare. All identification stickers remain adhered to the car's body/engine bay and importantly all spot welds are visible. attesting to the car's solid and honest body. Additionally. the car's underside remains very tidy and intact. including spotless original pans under the carpeting. Both the engine bay and luggage compartment show exceptionally well with factory applied Primrose paint. jack in pouch. spanner wrench and lead hammer. Besides its good looks. this E-Type is an absolute joy to drive and is among the best SIII's we have ever offered.
