1967 Jaguar E-type Ots: Stunning, All Numbers Matching, Immaculate Example on 2040-cars
Santa Barbara, California, United States
Offered for sale is a beautiful, mechanically fantastic, entirely honest and correct, numbers matching 1967 Jaguar E-Type Open Two Seater (OTS) finished in factory correct and wonderfully era-specific Primrose over Black leather. A solid and correct car to begin with, the previous owner undertook a costly restoration process in 2005 including paint, body, chrome, upholstery, undercarriage and mechanicals. Consequently, the car still presents beautifully, showing only the negligible wear accrued through the occasional fair weather weekend drive following its completion. Whether it will continue its service as a cherished weekend driver or as a worthy Jaguar Club of North America event participant, this gorgeous example needs nothing but a new doting owner to be enjoyed. The correct Primrose finish is fantastic: deep, lustrous, completely consistent and marred only by the most insignificant of imperfections, none of which are visible in the pictures. The body is entirely straight, free of dings or dents and retaining even and uniform gaps and panel fits throughout. The brightwork is in excellent shape, as is all of the glass and rubber, and the chrome knock-off wire wheels are wrapped in nearly new radial tires. The interior has been reupholstered in all the correct materials and presents as nicely as it did leaving the factory. The seats, carpets and interior panels are all virtually flawless and the soft top shows only the most minimal wear with a crystal clear rear window and an original boot cover. The car’s undercarriage is entirely restored, correct and free of rust and the engine compartment is detailed and gorgeous. Final model year E-Type Series I roadsters are among the most desirable Jaguars on the market, thanks in no small part to the venerable 4.2L engine. Firing up without hesitation, the engine idles consistently, pulls strongly and smoothly through each of the gearbox’s four gears with excellent compression across all cylinders. The cooling system works exceptionally well and the exhaust note from the dual stainless system is fantastic, allowing for grin-inducing performance in nearly any situation. The car drives and brakes straight and true, the suspension is tight and the car is a joy to drive, whether tooling through town, roaring through the canyons or bombing down the highway. With Series I E-Types selling at outlandish prices in recent auctions (as much as $425k domestically), this car represents an excellent opportunity to acquire an excellent, appreciating example that is exceptionally well restored, numbers matching, mechanically excellent, honest and correct. Please bid accordingly. We want this car to go to great home and would be happy to further discuss it and answer any questions, so please feel free to email us or call us at 805-202-4557. You can also visit us online at GoodmanReed. Goodman Reed Motorcars We’ve always had an appreciation for classic European cars and over the years have created an eclectic personal collection. We only buy cars that we’d personally be interested in owning and generally only sell them to make room for other acquisitions. That time has come for this Jaguar (if the price is right, of course – this isn’t a fire sale). We try to give accurate descriptions of the cars we’re selling, but we’re enthusiasts, not experts, and we encourage and are happy to help facilitate personal or professional inspections. But please do so before bidding, as the alternative harms our ability to make sales to other interested parties who have done their proper due diligence before bidding. For U.S. buyers a 10%
non-refundable deposit is required within 3 days of the auction’s end, the
balance to be paid within 7 days of the auction’s end. Foreign buyers must pay
in full within 7 business days of the auction’s end. Buyer is responsible for
shipping, however we’d be more that happy to help with recommendations and
arrangements. The car is listed locally and we reserve the right to end the
auction at any time should it sell prior to auction’s end. Thanks for your
interest. |

An E-Type in the garden: rotting '63 Jaguar heads for auction
Wed, Mar 2 2016There's something about formerly gorgeous cars in dilapidated states from which the eye cannot turn away. The devastatingly cruel fate of this Jaguar E-Type is an illustration. Next week, it likely begins a new life. Still voluptuous after decades rotting in a garden, this 1963 Series 1 fixed head coupe will be offered for sale at the Coys auction Tuesday in London. The car has 44,870 miles on the odometer and has passed through several owners, including one with a tangential connection to the Beatles and another man who used the Jag to pull his MG to Brands Hatch. He would race them both, according to Coys' listing, wringing the most out of the E-Type's 265-horsepower inline six. Ivor Arbiter was owner No. 1. His link to history is that he designed the Beatles drop-T logo in the early '60s and was reportedly paid five British pounds for it. He bought the E-Type new in 1963, used it, and then sold it to in 1965. The E-Type passed through a couple of owners until motorsports enthusiast Frank Riches bought it in '67. He tracked the Jag at some of Britain's iconic circuits and drove it until he fried the clutch. Coys cites a story from Riches' brother recounting when the E-Type hit 150 miles per hour on a public road, its listed top speed. It was in storage until the 1980s, and then Riches relocated it to his garden, where it has sat for years. Considering its long dormancy, the Jag appears to be in reasonable shape. It's never been restored, obviously, and Riches still has many of the original parts he replaced, including the center console and radiator bar. Coys notes that the seats have a "lovely patina" and are worth saving, too. The buyer also gets a brown logbook, the sales invoice to Riches, two service books (it is a '63 Jag) and a spare parts catalogue. A Coys auctioneer told ITV.com that the car could net about $140,000. Related Video: Jaguar Auctions Coupe Luxury Performance jaguar e-type
Jaguar F-Pace SVR to debut this week at New York Auto Show
Mon, Mar 26 2018It should come as no surprise that the folks back in England have been working on a hot new version of the Jaguar F-Pace. Today, just ahead of the 2018 New York International Auto Show, the British automaker confirmed that the Jaguar F-Pace SVR will debut this week. The new Jaguar I-Pace and Range Rover SV Coupe will make their North American debuts alongside the F-Pace. All we know about the F-Pace SVR is that it will be the fastest and most powerful version of Jaguar's best-selling product. We don't even have a teaser photo, as Jaguar Land Rover loves to play things close to the vest, so we're sharing some spy photos that we think might be the new model. Expect some version of JLR's 5.0-liter supercharged V8. We're hoping it's the 575 horsepower variant from the refreshed Range Rover Sport SVR. Expect 0-60 mph times in the low-4-second range and a top speed of at least 155 mph. The I-Pace and Range Rover SV Coupe both debuted earlier this month at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show. The I-Pace is an all-electric crossover with an estimated 240 miles of range. The SV Coupe is a limited-production two-door variant of the full-size Range Rover. It's meant to be a throwback to the original two-door Range Rover Classic. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
