A 1969 Jaguar E-Type Series II roadster, registration number UKB 9H, chassis number 1R1335, engine number 7R66419, Old English white, believed 79, 000 miles from new. The second generation of E-Type became available in October 1969 and would remain in production until September 1970. Having only a two year production run, they are one of the rarer E-Type variants. In fact only 775 roadsters were registered on British roads making the Series II roadster an extremely rare car. This original home market right hand drive roadster, has had six previous owners prior to our vendor, acquiring the Jaguar in 2013. Finished in its original colour scheme of old English white with a dark blue leather interior and matching weather gear. The bodywork has excellent body fit and both the paintwork and chrome work are in good condition. The interior shows commensurate wear to substantiate recorded mileage of 79, 000 miles, Since the acquisition of the E-type, our vendor has maintained the Jaguar as necessary and to a high standard, with various receipts on file for works carried out, including an engine rebuild by Extreme Jaguar Restoration Ltd (10/ 08/ 17, with +20 pistons (receipt for works carried out £7, 605. 69), new windscreen, drop glass, rear refurbish suspension with new bushes, bearings and full brake overhaul (receipt on file £6, 064. 03p), front suspension and brake overhaul with new shock absorbers all round, steering column, bushes, discs etc (receipt on file - £4, 411. 72p). Further works carried out include the fitting of electronic ignition, high torque starter motor and fuel pumps. There are further maintenance receipts on file for several thousands of pounds for general maintenance. There is an extensive history file containing receipts, past MOTs and general correspondence. The Jaguar also benefits from having an after market hard top. Overall the Jaguar presents very well with an honest patina commensurate with a recorded mileage and is ready to be enjoyed by the next custodian. V5C, MOT to March 2019, tax exempt See illustrations
