1965 JAGUAR TYPE E 4.2L COUPE

French title
Chassis n° 1E31666
Engine n° 7R9400-9

• More than 15,000 € of work done by end 2021
• Only 2 owners since 1987
• Very neat car, tailor-made luggage

Delivered new in the USA in September 1965 in an "Opalescent Silver Blue" livery, as indicated by its Jaguar Heritage, this 4.2-liter manual gearbox coupe has been in France for many years. Acquired in 1987 from a Parisian dealer by its former owner, it did not change hands until 2014 at the auction held by Artcurial Motorcars at Le Mans Classic. A fan of the model and wishing to use it regularly, the new owner has since scrupulously taken care of this beautiful car. Thus for 7 years, it benefited from numerous mechanical and cosmetic works corroborated by invoices present in the folder, as well as some technical improvements such as power steering and a stainless- steel exhaust system. Its paint was completely redone in 2015 in a slightly darker blue than the original, and two, more modern seats were fitted for better comfort. A 2019 expert report confirmed the good condition of the car, which has an engine that is not original but conforming to the period. It should be noted that this E-Type has just undergone a major recommission carried out by AS Classic Engineering for an amount of over € 15,000, including a lot of work on the cylinder head. It will be delivered with its invoice folder, its original seats, as well as a magnificent set of two tailor-made suitcases made by Laurent Nay. This E-Type Coupe, which was already an automotive icon when it was launched in 1961, and whose design continues to amaze, is an absolutely legendary car and this example, without reserve, is a particularly attractive example.
