JamieP Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Thought id give this a try on here, just about to come on the market is this beauty. my father in-laws cherished E-type. He has many classic and super cars he does not have time to look after this anymore. If you are serious about buying it give me a shout and i will pass on his details. 1970 E-Type series two, owned by my father in-law since 1984 Only 1100 miles. 4.2 straight 6 engine, manual gearbox. Many concours wins including the Jaguar E-type 25th year anniversary meet with over a 1000 cars entered. Price is £90,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdistc Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Looks ridiculously clean - I'm guessing your father-in-law is super anal about cleaning it, as I'm sure he drives it. Hope it finds a worthy new home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Is it officially the best in the world? What is it that makes it actually better than a brand new E-Type? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it finds a worthy new home. No he dont drive it, he has a few other E-types for driving, this car is for a collector that wants the best available really. Is it officially the best in the world? What is it that makes it actually better than a brand new E-Type? Its won best of show and concours at every big jaguar show its been to, it is regarded as the best available im told.

tooquicktostop Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Test drove a couple of these a few months ago, as I have reached middle age I am loving classics more and more The ones I tested were a bit tired and around the 15K mark, this is just car porn and looks undriven, lottery winner or rich collector kind of car but I guess worth every penny Why not use one of the exclusive auction houses that sell in Europe, many to be found in the classic car mags, small commision of course but get the right buyers looking who have 90K to spend on a car that will do 100 ish miles a year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SupraGTE Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 for sure maybe 2 with that length of bonnet a TS bumper and a trial will make it nice great looked after car , advertise it in russia or dubai and some collector will sure pick it up Will a 2jz fit in there????

Aero-M Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Gorgeous car, I have always liked the e type. I fitted 8 doors for a customers garage and he has many classics, one being a white e type with 8,000 miles from new on the clock. It wasn't anywhere near concours though.
