Wheelbase: 105” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pFnKnL-hvg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tL3jUYroDg&feature=youtu.be THE MODEL...When the new Jaguar E-type was first shown at the Geneva Auto Show in 1961, it was all the rage. With styling and performance taken directly from the legendary D-type, it set the mark for what a sports car should be. In its initial offering two body styles were marketed, a smart little roadster, or drop-head coupe, and a fixed head coupe, perfect for a happy couple or for a driver and navigator on a road-rally course. On a program of constant improvements, Jaguar introduced a number of upgrades to the E-type, such as the introduction of the 4.2 Liter engine as well as vast improvements for creature comforts. One complaint was that neither the roadster nor the fixed head coupe had much room for carrying anything extra like a suitcase, and if a third person wanted to join the party, there just wasn’t room. That was resolved in 1966 when the 2+2 coupe was unveiled. Featuring a body shell that was nine inches longer than the originals, there was now room for two more passengers, although a bit cramped, and more room for luggage or parcels accessible by a side-hinged rear door. This Particular CAR… This exquisite example of the 2+2 coupe captures all the beauty and speed of the original E-type concept, but with a bit of comfort and practicality added in. And face it, who else ever produced a “practical” sports car? I acquired this 2+2 from the previous owner who had the car in his possession for nearly 30 years, but due to physical limitations could only admire its beauty. Today its odometer is showing just under 90,500 miles, believed to be from new. This is the type of Jaguar collectors line-up and wait for. Treated to a re-spray in its original Regency Red, there were no issues with the body in ways of damage or rust, and it remains unmolested with modifications or alterations. When the gas tank trim was removed to extract the original fuel tank, the paint under the tank and surrounding areas was still show room fresh. NO RUST! With soft black leather on the bucket seats, which appears to be original, all of the stitching is in order, the dashboard is fitted with all the original instruments and best of all, this is an air-conditioned 2+2. One upgrade is the addition of a JVC stereo system which appears to have been professionally installed. Mechanically, this car is just simply beautiful. Recently treated to nearly $30,000 worth of maintenance work making it ready for the road, all of the brake parts were sent out and brass lined, both of the SU carburetors were completely gone through plated and had ethanol friendly gaskets installed, and the engine was highly detailed making this gem ready for the show field or to hit the road. The exhaust is stainless steel front to back. The fuel tank is new. There are receipts for all of the work. Since that work was completed, about 400 test miles have been put on the car during which no concerns about its performance or issues were reported. The transmission is tight and goes through the gears with ease. During the maintenance work, all engine numbers were inspected and found to be 100% matching. All of the glass appears to be original to the car and is clear. Chrome and bright work, including the wire wheels, look fresh and sparkle in the daylight. This 2+2 is as close to original as one could hope for and fitted out just as you would want to order one today. You can search and search and to find one as original and unmolested as this will be very difficult. About the Owner .... I have owned many cars over the years (and still do). As I continue to change my taste I have changed the cars in the collection. I own my own restoration shop, anything that I have done to the car or had done is top notch. My business is not sell cars for a living, I build cars to order for discriminating clientele. The car is in my name. The reason that I state this information is that I don't need to sell the car, nor was the car just thrown together to sell. This is not meant to be negative, I just don't want to waste anyone's time with low ball offers or the like. If you want to discuss the car, or send someone to look at the car, that is perfectly fine. I can be reached at 832 428 4281. Please ask for Jeff.

Lotus Esprit S1 gets wet and wild in 'Forza Horizon 4' James Bond trailer
Tue, Sep 18 2018It only makes sense. When the official trailer for Forza Horizon 4 ( FH4) first debuted at E3, details showed the game is set in Britain. Those who were ahead of the curve might have recognized this as a foreshadowing of sorts. Celebrating the launch of FH4's XBOX One and Windows 10 demo on Sept. 12, Playground Games announced that the next version of the beloved racing simulator will launch with an available Best of Bond pack that includes many of James Bond's storied rides. As expected, the list is heavy on the Aston Martin, but there are plenty of other goodies, too. Included in the 10-car pack are the 1964 Aston Martin DB5, a 1969 Aston Martin DBS, a 1986 Aston Martin V8, a 2008 Aston Martin DBS, a 2015 Aston Martin DB10, a 1974 AMC Hornet X Hatchback, a 1977 Lotus Esprit S1, a 1981 Citroen 2CV6, a 1999 BMW Z8, and a 2010 Jaguar C-X75. If you can name every movie that all of these vehicles are from, pat yourself on the back and grab a martini. View 15 Photos Microsoft is rewarding those who are all-in on FH4. The Best of Bond pack will come with the Ultimate Edition of the game that is allowed an early play date, starting Sept. 28. For those who haven't fully committed, the Best of Bond pack will be available as an add-on for purchase when the game launches globally on Oct. 2. The action-packed trailer shows many of the vehicles transforming or busting out tricks they're known for from the films, including the Lotus emerging from the sea. Although players will not be able to drive any vehicles under water (that we know of), several of the gadgets will make it into the game and will be viewable during Forzavista mode. The '64 DB5 has many of its features, such as the bumper rams and revolving license plate, while the Lotus will have an available body kit, fins and all. The Bond pack also comes with a few features irrelevant to the cars, including two Bond outfits and six "quick chat" phrases that can be used during multiplayer. The pack adds to an already impressive catalogue of vehicles that includes more than 450 different rides. Available now to pre-order, the FH4 Ultimate Edition is priced at $99.99, the Deluxe Edition is $79.99, while the base game is $59.99. For those who love Bond but don't own a gaming system, don't forget about the recently announced DB5 Lego kit.
