Jaguar E-Type ranked first in a The Daily Telegraph online list of the world's "100 most beautiful cars" of all time


  1973 Jaguar E-type Series 3 – V12
Mechanically this car is now just about perfect.   The problems normally associated with Series 3 cars with their V12 engines have all been fixed. namely:- Distributor Centrifugal advance has been cleaned and checked Original Opus Ignition Amplifier has been replaced with a ReOpus transistorised unit. Otter switch replaced. fans upgraded and manual bypass also installed Cooling system overhauled. hoses  replaced where necessary. proper Thermostats installed Sticking brakes when engine bay hot problem fixed (reaction valve on master cylinder) Stromberg Carbs balanced Dual fuel pumps installed   Other mechanical work:- Gearbox fully renovated Alternator overhauled and renovated Starter motor overhauled and renovated Body work Car stripped to bare metal. sections of bodywork were repaired and the car was then repainted before I bought it. Some of the panel fit is not perfect.

Now the bad news:-

Car had small fire (gearbox had very little ATF in it when I bought it. this foamed up out of the overflow and caught fire on the exhaust manifolds. ) There is a small amount of damage on one of the bonnet vents (see photo) Conclusion
This car is not a trailer queen. It is very much used. The bodywork had been done when I bought the car. but some of the panel fit is not perfect. Likewise. mechanically. it was not great. I have put a lot of time and effort into making it the perfect driver's car. and since I bought it in 2008. I have put about 5000 miles on it. The car is not perfect and the price reflects that. but if you are looking for a good solid driver. and are prepared to put in the time to make it a perfect car. then this is the one for you.
