First registered in August 1968 this Jaguar E-Type Series 1.5 4.2 Litre 2+2 is an home market Right Hand Drive car, that remains in its original of Dark Blue with Light Blue interior. The Heritage Certificate that accompanies this example confirms this detail. We understand from the most recent keeper that this example was taken off the road in 1992; he then, knowing the history of the car, acquired it in 2010 and carried out a very sympathetic re-commissioning.

The last owner is able to warrant the mileage at just over 40,000 miles and confirms that this is a matching numbers car.

At the close of the E-Type Series 1 production run, there were a small number of cars produced that are identical in every respect to other Series 1 units (including triple SU Carburettors, toggle switches, etc.), except that the headlight covers were removed for better illumination. These cars have become known as the Series 1.5 cars they were manufactured from August 1967 through to July 1968 but they were largely registered in 1968. While Jaguar itself never recognised the Series 1.5 at production; over time this sub-category has been recognised by the Jaguar Owners Club of Great Britain and other leading authorities. Our example bears the correct Chassis Number for what is now recognised as a Series 1.5 2 + 2.

We regard this as a good opportunity to acquire a verified low mileage original Right Hand Drive car that has not been restored and shows evidence of very careful ownership and just the right amount of patina. Whats more we think it looks great in this colour.
