The Jaguar XK-E's combination of beauty. high performance and competitive pricing established the marque as an icon of 1960s motoring. MotoeXotica Classic Cars is pleased to present this original. unmolested and seldom-seen 1970 Jaguar XK-E 2+2 coupe. Its previous local owner drove it for almost 40 years! The body is 9 in (229 mm) longer than the standard fixed head coupe and the roof angles are different.

Outside. the car's dark blue paint is in good overall condition and the windshield and other glass sections are intact. clear and look good. considering their age. The car rolls on Pirelli P600 Sport Veloce radial tires. 195/65R15. which surround wire wheels with NOS Jaguar wheel hex caps. All body panels are laser straight and solid. The underside of this handsome cat is solid with some repair evident on the rocker panels but does not limit this Jag and is a wonderful driver with long term extensive history!

The power is transferred to the rear wheels by a three-speed automatic transmission backed to a limited-slip rear differential. The driver assist features include power assisted rack-and-pinion steering. four-wheel power disc brakes and independent front and rear suspensions. Included are the original chrome 15-inch polished wire wheels and Jaguar center lock hubs.

Inside. the recently recovered Connolly Leather red seats look fantastic as a contrast to the dark blue paint. The Wilton carpet. headliner and dashboard. a Nardi wood-rimmed steering wheel. complete with Enrico Nardi's autograph on the three o'clock spoke. center console with armrest and shift lever look similarly good and help complete the period appearance. There's a very rare and handsome Philips AM/FM/SW (shortwave) stereo in the dashboard.

The Series 2 Jaguar introduced a number of design changes. largely due to U. S. legislation. The most distinctive exterior feature is the absence of the glass headlight covers. Unlike other cars. this retrograde step was applied worldwide for the E-Type. not just to Americans living under the authority of the National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration.

Other hallmarks of Series 2 cars are a wrap-around rear bumper. re-positioned and larger front indicators and tail lights below the bumpers. an enlarged “mouth. which aided cooling but detracted for the Series I design purity. twin electric fans. plastic rocker switches in place of the Series I toggle switches.

A combination steering lock and ignition key was fitted to the steering column. which replaced the dashboard mounted ignition switch and charismatic push button starter. A new steering column was fitted with a collapsible section in the event of an accident. Air conditioning and power steering were available as factory options.

New seats were fitted which allowed head restraints. as required by U. S. law beginning in 1969. The interior and dashboard were also redesigned; rocker switches that met US health and safety regulations were substituted for toggle switches. The dashboard switches also lost their symmetrical layout.

The 4. 2-liter version of the XK was officially released in 1964. although racers had been boring the 3. 8 out all the way to 4. 2 liters for years. The factory 4. 2-liter block was a new siamesed sleeve design which used re-spaced cylinders set unevenly along the length of the block with new main bearing spacings and a new crankshaft. The middle two cylinders were moved closer together and the outer two moved further apart but the overall length of the block remained unchanged. This enabled the cylinder bores to be taken out to 3. 6 in while retaining the familiar long stroke of 4. 2 in for a total displacement of 258 CID.

Despite the re-spacing of the cylinder bores. the cylinder head castings remained unchanged. As a result. the centerlines of the combustion chambers in the head no longer aligned precisely with the centerlines of the cylinders but this did not matter greatly as the combustion chamber diameters in the head were smaller than the cylinder diameters. The 3. 8 and 4. 2-litre cylinder heads and cams are therefore interchangeable. The 4. 2-litre engine from the factory had unsmoothed steps between the inlet manifold and head and the manifold gaskets were not a good match for the inlet ports. These engines therefore make excellent bases for some modification. achieving approximately 220 horsepower and increased torque merely by “flowing” the head.

Examples of this Jaguar's competition in 1970 included the Citroen SM. the BMW 2800 CS and the Mercedes-Benz 280 SL.

Probably one of the most recognizable coupes ever produced. Enzo Ferrari called it “The most beautiful car ever made. this low mileage. largely un-restored original E-type is the ideal combination of style. function and performance…and with the endorsement of Enzo Ferrari. what are you waiting for? GET OUT AND DRIVE!!!

Current mileage on the odometer shows 63. 53 miles. It is sold as is. where is on a clean and clear. mileage exempt title with mileage understood to be actual and receipts/records to back up the current shown mileage.
