1969 JAGUAR E-TYPE SERIES TWO ROADSTER. RED/BLACK. 4-SPEED. CHROME WIRE WHEELS.
Up for sale here on Ebay is a very decent 1969 Jaguar E-type Series Two Roadster. It has just been removed from storage for a period of about 20 years. The car looks very good cosmetically from about 10 feet, but close up the paint is showing some signs of it's age with some checking on the hood and trunk lid. The interior appears very decent and usable. The seats are trimmed in leather, and would only require some conditioning. The softtop is a replacement type with no rips or tears and a very nice back window. There is a newer tonneau cover included. The chrome and glass look very nice overall. The chrome wire wheels present well, but the tires should be changed out as a safety precaution. The wood portion of the original steering wheel is starting to separate from the aluminum. All of the gauges and switchgear appear in good order and original. Jacked up, the car looks solid underneath. The underside of the bonnet at the front looks really good, no damage. The hood could use some minor alignment/adjustment for a perfect fit along the bulkhead. The doors open and shut fine. The trunk lid sits a little proud, like most cars do. This car has been fitted with a 3.8 Triple Carb Series One E-type engine and gearbox, engine number RA3203-9. The previous owner, who was very forthright, started the engine up with a battery and fuel that he gravity fed into the carbs. The car was yard driven for a short period around his property with great results. The car ran very well and strong, with good oil pressure. It currently needs some brakework and a fuel system cleanout at this point to make it a nice driver. He used the handbrake to stop the car, afraid that pushing the brake pedal could seize the brakes after the long storage period... Overall, this car presents a good opportunity to secure a very decent Jaguar E-type 6-cylinder Roadster. With a little bit of mechanical recommissioning and minor efforts, one could turn this car into a very usable and attractive road car. This car is located in Southern California and can be viewed by appointment. It is sold with a New York registration certificate which is suitable for export, as New York doesn't issue titles on vehicles past a certain year. $43,900.

Stunning Jaguar E-Type Lightweight tribute featured by Petrolicious
Tue, 17 Dec 2013This is a Series 1 Jaguar E-Type Coupe. Enzo Ferrari, Il Commendatore himself, called it "the most beautiful car ever made." It can count among its owners Steve McQueen, Brigitte Bardot and a number of other celebrities from the 1960s. It remains one of the prettiest and coolest cars ever.
While we don't normally prescribe to modifying classics like the E-Type, cars that are used for vintage racing, like this particular example, are certainly the exception. It's owned by Jason Len and is the subject of the latest video from the team at Petrolicious.
Len's 1964 E-Type has been fashioned to look like one of the rare Lightweight E-Types from 1963 and 1964. The aluminum-bodied E-Types, of which only a dozen were built, were all intended exclusively for racing, much like Len's heavily modified example. While it retains the 3.8-liter straight-six, its engine, transmission, suspension, brakes and body have been extensively tweaked and fettled to allow this classic Jag to compete with a field of V8s.
The first Jaguar Project 7 is the new kid in Harry's Garage
Sat, Jan 2 2016The Jaguar Project 7 is more than just an F-Type with a dab more power and a special body, and Harry Metcalfe (who advises Jaguar Land Rover Special Vehicle Operations, which built the car) is here to show us why. This limited-production model is something truly special, and despite Metcalfe's role with JLR it's hard to misinterpret the enjoyment in his eyes when the supercharged V8 roars. Metcalfe's Project 7 is number one of just 250 cars built and wears a British Racing Green body with orange accents around the nose, mirrors, brake calipers, and underneath the rear spoiler – classic sports car style with a little modern flash. His example is also special because the entire build team signed the area underneath the trunk lid. While the engine comes up to temperature during his drive, Metcalfe shows that the Project 7 can be a fine grand tourer, and he eventually puts the throttle down to let his audience here the sublime engine. Metcalfe claims the limited edition Jag actually has too much horsepower but he means that in the best way possible. Driving it reminds him of being behind the wheel of his Pagani Zonda – a fine compliment for a grand tourer to be compared to an ultra-exotic supercar Find out why by taking a ride with Harry.
