Please Read All

MotorCarTrader.com, LLC is happy to offer this nice 1969 Jaguar E-type Fixed Head Coupe. This car is in nice driver level condition. The car has 22,808 miles which we understand to be original. The date of manufacture on this car was August 6 of 1969 and the date of dispatch was August 14 of 1969. As we understand it, the car spent a good amount of its life in VA and then to the mid-west where we purchased the car. It does have a Heritage Certificate to confirm all numbers match and the original Cream Color.

This car is a nice driver and not a show car. She drives great and handles excellent with good power. The compression is excellent of 145 to 165 psi across all 6 cylinders. The interior was redone at one time and looks very nice. The paint looks to be mostly original with cracking on the body from much older paint. We captured some of the areas in pictures. Some people may like it for the patina in the paint, where others may want to repaint the car. It has newer chrome wire wheels with brand new tires. Also, has a new and full stainless steel exhaust system. This Jaguar e-type has solid floors and is solid underneath. The spare tire compartment is also solid and original.

We recently had the car gone through and some of the work done is as follows:

  • Service and repair to the starter.
  • Carburetors set up and serviced.
  • Replace and repair  interior switches.
  • Underside and engine compartment degreased and cleaned.
  • Left and right cam cover gaskets replaced. New timing chain tensioner gaskets. Oil and filter changed.
  • Brake work which included: new master cylinder, brake servo, bulk lines and brake lines replaced. Brake system and clutch hydraulics flushed. The brake pads were replaced.
  • New tires mounted and balanced and alignment completed.    

    Overall this is a great running and driving Jaguar Coupe. This is a good car if you are looking for a fun driver that has already been gone through. Also, this is a good investment and available at a fair price, as Jaguar E-type Fixed Head Coupes have been rapidly appreciating.

    An E-Type in the garden: rotting '63 Jaguar heads for auction

    Wed, Mar 2 2016

    There'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's first-ever Super Bowl ad to feature F-Type Coupe

    Sun, 10 Nov 2013

    Patrons of this year's Los Angeles Auto Show will be able to get their first glimpse at the new Jaguar F-Type Coupe, but the new hardtop sports car will be shown off to an even greater audience in early February. No, we aren't talking about the Chicago Auto Show - we're referring to the Super Bowl. Jaguar will debut its first-ever Super Bowl ad during the second half of the big game on February 2, 2014, and the sleek new F-Type Coupe will be the star.
    According to Jaguar, the ad campaign will pose the question, "Have you ever noticed how in Hollywood movies, all the villains are played by Brits?" And for all you social media mavens out there, Jaguar will launch a specific hashtag to go with this marketing: #GoodToBeBad.
    British director Tom Hooper is responsible for the ad, which is being filmed in London. Americans will get their first glimpse at the campaign this weekend in the first spot, called Disruptor, but the big F-Type Coupe spot will not air until Super Bowl XLVIII in February.

    Jaguar F-Pace runs support at Tour de France

    Wed, Jul 1 2015

    Jaguar is going back to the Tour de France. The British automaker will once again support Team Sky in its latest campaign for cycling's biggest prize by loaning out an F-Pace prototype that will run during the brutal first stage of this year's event. This marks our first genuine look at the production sheetmetal, which is lightly obscured by the Team Sky/Jaguar camouflage. Sporting a black theme, it features blue accents, carbon fiber, rubber, and chain elements reminiscent of a racing bike. Outside of that, it looks a lot like C-X17 Concept that previewed the F-Pace. Like the F-Type that was used by Team Sky in last year's race, the F-Pace will carry the team's director and a driver. They'll be joined this year by a mechanic and the team's physician, while the large trunk will house sports drinks, clothing for the riders, and spare parts for their bikes. "We are delighted to be supporting Team Sky again at such a prestigious sporting event and are excited at the prospect of the F-Pace being seen in action in public for the first time," Kevin Stride, the CUV's line director, said in the attached statement. "The Jaguar F-Pace is a striking balance of performance, style, and practicality. And what better way to showcase the vehicle's attributes than on this crucial first leg of the Tour de France."
