JAGUAR E TYPE 4.2 SPIDER 1970-Air Conditioning- For Sale

Auto completamente restaurata di carrozzeria, meccanica e selleria negli anni 2000 rispettando la configurazione d’origine.
Percorsi solamente 7200 Km dal restauro.
Autovettura molto affascinante ed affidabile meccanicamente dotata di raro condizionatore dell’epoca.
Revisionata ed iscritta ASI, pronta all’uso.

La Jaguar E-Type, conosciuta anche come XKE venne prodotta tra il 1961 ed il 1975.
La E-Type fu una vettura rivoluzionaria per la progettazione, le caratteristiche di guida e l'estetica; era in anticipo sui tempi. Il suo prezzo era più basso di quello delle vetture pari classe della concorrenza e questo aiutò le vendite che, nei 14 anni nei quali rimase in produzione, arrivarono a 70. 000 vetture. Nel 2004 la rivista statunitense Sports Cars International la mise al primo posto tra le Top Sport Cars degli anni ‘60. Dal 1996 una E Type OTS prima serie, è entrata a far parte della collezione permanente del New York City Museum of Modern Art, un riconoscimento concesso a sole 6 auto.

Nel Dicembre del 1968 venne lanciata la Series 2, oggetto di vendita in questo caso, con diverse modifiche introdotte soprattutto per rispettare le norme di sicurezza USA, il mercato di riferimento per questa vettura. Le modifiche al motore, adottate dall'intera gamma (europea e americana), erano già state mostrate nella Series 1 1/ 2 USA; i tre carburatori SU HD8 venne rimpiazzati da due carburatori Zenith-Stromberg per rispettare le norme antinquinamento americane.
Le altre modifiche meccaniche riguardarono lo sterzo, il piantone era collassabile e si poteva avere il servosterzo; anche l’impianto frenante venne migliorato con pinze Girling.
Furono introdotte delle modifiche estetiche:
i fari vennero ingranditi e posti in sedi cromate, gli indicatori di direzione anteriori vennero ingranditi e posti sotto nuovi paraurti anche essi ingranditi. Venne anche ingrandita la presa d'aria ovale per far posto all'evaporatore del condizionatore, per la prima volta offerto come optional. I piccoli fanalini posteriori furono sostituiti da quelli più grandi presi in prestito dalla Lotus Elan S2 e posti ora sotto il paraurti ingrandito ai lati del vano porta-targa. Lateralmente furono aggiunte anche le luci di ingombro.
All'interno i sedili ricevettero i poggiatesta e lo schienale regolabile e una combinazione di bloccasterzo e chiave di accensione venne montata sul piantone dello sterzo.

Car completely restored with bodywork, mechanics and saddlery in the 2000s respecting the original configuration.
Traveled only 7200 km since the restoration.
Very charming and mechanically reliable car equipped with a rare conditioner of the time.
Revised and ASI registered, ready for use.

The Jaguar E-Type, also known as XKE was produced between 1961 and 1975.
The E-Type was a revolutionary car in design, driving characteristics and aesthetics; it was ahead of its time. Its price was lower than that of the same class cars of the competition and this helped the sales which, in the 14 years in which it remained in production, reached 70, 000 cars. In 2004, the US magazine Sports Cars International ranked it first among the Top Sport Cars of the 1960s. Since 1996, an E Type OTS first series has entered the permanent collection of the New York City Museum of Modern Art, an award granted to only 6 cars.

In December 1968 the Series 2 was launched, object of sale in this case, with several changes introduced mainly to comply with the US safety regulations, the reference market for this car. The modifications to the engine, adopted by the entire range (European and American), had already been shown in the Series 1 1/ 2 USA; the three SU HD8 carburettors were replaced by two Zenith-Stromberg carburetors to comply with American anti-pollution regulations.
The other mechanical changes concerned the steering, the column was collapsible and you could have power steering; the braking system was also improved with Girling calipers.
Aesthetic changes were introduced:
the headlights were enlarged and placed in chromed seats, the front direction indicators were enlarged and placed under new bumpers which were also enlarged. The oval air intake was also enlarged to make room for the air conditioner evaporator, offered for the first time as an option. The small taillights were replaced by larger ones borrowed from the Lotus Elan S2 and now placed under the enlarged bumper on either side of the license plate holder. Side marker lights were also added.
Inside the seats received headrests and adjustable backrests and a combination of steering lock and ignition key was mounted on the steering column.

A Jaguar E-Type with the top-of-the-range V12 engine that counteracts any downsizing of engines. What makes the ride in the Etype very special is the manual gearbox, which in my opinion is the most beautiful pairing of the engine & gearbox and brings out the brute torque of the V12 aka Doublesix. If you are ...
