1972 Jaguar E-Type Series 3 OTS

Highlights 

  • Original RHD example
  • Imported from South Africa
  • Includes factory hard top
  • Recent MOT with no advisories

The Appeal

 
This V12 Jaguar E-Type Series 3 was the final development of one of the most famous and desirable sports cars ever made. This Series 3 model represents the evolution of the E-Type into its final form as an exceptional, high-speed GT car.
 
Earlier Series 1 and 2 six-cylinder cars can sometimes represent a bit of a “work out” for the driver. In comparison, this V12 car benefits from the creature comforts of the later specification: power steering, automatic transmission and more interior space thanks to the longer wheelbase of the Series 3 cars.
 
This particular example is especially handsome, having been refinished many years ago in silver with a black interior. Originally delivered to South Africa, the dry climate has helped to preserve the car in superb condition.
 
If you’re looking for a tidy, presentable but usable example of one of the most accomplished and stylish GT cars ever made, then look no further. The grand finale of one of the most iconic sports cars ever made.

The vendor says:

I have owned three V12 E-Type and this is a truly wonderful example, it drives beautifully and although limited history, an inspection shows how well it has been maintained”.

This sale is subject to the Car & Classic Terms and Conditions. By bidding and/or making an offer, you also agree to the following: 
The seller is registered as a private seller which means consumer rights stemming from EU consumer protection law do not come into effect. However, you are still covered by Car & Classic’s own Terms and Conditions.. 
We request that a non-refundable fee  be paid if you are the lucky winning bidder at auction or if your offer is accepted Please refer to our helpful FAQs and T&Cs for specific rates. 
This vehicle is “Sold As Seen”, on an “As Is Where Is’ basis and without warranty. Photos and descriptions are solely for guidance purposes and it's customary to carry out a full inspection of the vehicle prior to purchase for your own peace of mind. 
✓ VAT is included in the buyer's fee. VAT may or may not be included in the final bid or offer price, as specified in the listing. 
We want a smooth transaction just as much as you do and as such we run all UK-registered cars and motorbikes for sale on Car & Classic through an online HPI check to verify that they show no insurance database markers for damage or theft, and have no finance owing, allowing you to bid with confidence. 
✓ We also check whether vehicles are recorded as being written off as part of an insurance total loss claim at the time an advert is placed on Car & Classic and we helpfully provide write-off category labels (Cat C/D/S/N) for your assistance. However, the presence or absence of a label does not guarantee the vehicle’s status and it is always worthwhile carrying out your own  full vehicle history check before making an offer on a vehicle. 
✓ Buyers are responsible for vehicle collection 
or delivery. Importing vehicles may result in additional customs duties and import taxes so it's worth checking beforehand. It is the bidders responsibility to confirm import eligibility prior to purchase.
