Jaguar E Type Roadster Series 1.5Plus.

Plus? What does that stand for? More on that in a moment. 

With the benefit of hindsight Jaguars recently produced a new E Type. It reportedly sold for a seven figure £sum. Based on the 1968 Series 1.5, which still retained the breathtaking good looks of the Series One coupled to the Series Two upgrades. There was also the electric version at the Royal Wedding.

The car on offer here, for a fraction of a new car price, is effectively a new car. Following a long search for a suitable donor car, one was eventually found. The suitability related to its history not its condition. It had to have a substantive history from day one; original documentation; matching numbers, heritage certificate and the like... The car first registered on the 1st August 1968.

Having been totally dismantled, its 6 year reassembly began. During that time every component was either completely overhauled, re-engineered, or replaced. The body sections, many of which were new, were first sprayed before reassembly with molten Zinc at over 400 degC. Every nut and bolt on the car was replaced.

The Plus relates to its upgrades. This is not a standard Series 1.5. Apart from new glazed headlights, winged wheel spinners and chrome wire wheels, the differential ratios were altered to match an early Series One. New Triple SU carburetors and chrome manifold were fitted. The brakes, cooling system, front and rear suspensions enjoy the latest upgrades. 

With under 50 test miles on the clock, this magnificent example of an E Type Roadster is available for immediate delivery or collection to a discerning user/collector at the guide Price of 235,000. A Part Exchange is possible. Cleared funds are required prior to collection, by bank draft, electronic transfer or cleared cheque. 

This car is advertised elsewhere and may be removed from this sale.
