This is a very nice 1970 series 2 e-type roadster with its matching number 4.2 liter 6 cylinder engine, 4-speed manual fully synchronized manual gearbox, wire wheels and air conditioner. The very attractive color combination of regency red with beige leather interior is original to the car.

A quick inspection and you can tell this car has been loved all its life. Everything matches the Heritage Certificate, engine number and exterior/interior colors. Looking at the engine compartment you can see many of the original Cheney hose clamps and black plastic wiring harness ties, these are indications of a car that never has needed a restoration.

The car was repainted in its original regency red color perhaps 10 years ago. It is a high end paint job that looks very nice. The body panels are straight and with very good gaps. The best part of this car is the body structure as it is rust free and I cannot detect any metal work ever being done on the car. It is rare to find an e-type with an untouched body that is still in excellent condition. Just look at the photos of the interior and trunk floors to appreciate what I mean. Mechanically the engine is very strong with great oil pressure. The full synchronized gearbox shifts smoothly.  All the gauges are working with the exception of the clock. The car has the optional factory air conditioner. The AC turns on but will most likely need a freon charge, it has been too cold to test. The front suspension was just serviced and new motor mounts installed. The exhaust is stainless steel.

The interior was restored in its original beige color using correct patterns and materials.
The convertible top is black canvas and is in very good condition. The car even has its original Philips AM/FM/SW radio, which works.    

Includes the jack in the bag, knock off hammer and tool, boot cover, owner's manual, Heritage Certificate, lubrication chart and service manual.

I purchased the car in Greenville, South Carolina from its third owner. It appears the car was sold new in Greenville. This car is one of those rare cars that has been in the hands of a few caring owners for 43 years and never abused.

Are you the soon-to-be-revealed Jaguar CUV concept?

Fri, 06 Sep 2013

Following the teaser of the Jaguar CX-17 Concept released last weekend, the first official image of the Jaguar crossover concept appears to have hit the Internet ahead of its introduction at the Frankfurt Motor Show.
Assuming this is the real deal, the tall, upright front end removes any doubt that this is anything but a preview for the upcoming Jaguar crossover, which will likely be called either the XQ or the Q-Series. Reports suggest that Jag's first-ever CUV is likely to go into production in 2016, and it will bring with it the option for a Jaguar-developed four-cylinder engine replacing the current mills still sourced from former parent Ford.

Is Jaguar's 3 Series-fighter the brand's last chance?

Wed, 16 Oct 2013

The upcoming line of compact 3 Series-fighters from Jaguar, often referred to as the Jaguar XS, could consist of a sedan, wagon and possibly a coupe and GT model (think BMW 5 Series GT). The car's all-aluminum architecture also will provide the basis for two new sports utility vehicles. Just how important is the much-touted "baby Jag" project to parent company Jaguar Land Rover? A JLR executive reportedly says the brand's survival is directly linked to the success of the XS, codenamed X760, Autocar reports.
The brand's survival is directly linked to the success of the XS.
"If the X760 fails, it will probably be the end for the [Jaguar] brand," the executive says. But Adrian Hallmark, Jaguar's global brand director, claims Jaguar will "build the most advanced, most efficient, most refined car in that [compact luxury sedan] segment. Not almost as good as, but better than the best in the world."
