Condition & Presentation
The car presents well and captures everything that makes the E-Type such a standout classic. Finished in a striking red with a black hood and interior. There are some areas of the paint which could need attention which I have photographed, however the condition is such that it’s useable without any worry. Some of the chrome and the rubbers could also do with a refresh. The hood is in ok shape, but has never really been used in our ownership as it’s dry stored indoors always and only used in fair weather.
The Roadster offers the full open-top driving experience, with the 4. 2 engine provides the chance to listen to the lovely 6-cylinder audio track.
Whilst the car is LHD, being an import from the USA means overall the body is solid. If you’re looking for a car that you can use any enjoy, this is the one.
Viewings recommended. Car is located in the Rutland/ Stamford area.
