1969 Jaguar E-Type (XKE) OTS Roadster Series II (Titled first in 1971)

Chassis: 1R11361

Engine: 7R8775-9

Body: 4R5811

Gearbox: KE10047

•A numbers matching, well-maintained and largely original example

•Desirable and refined Series II model; distinctive original colours, "Ascot Fawn" over Beige

•20,599 Original, documented miles - long-term ownership for past 42 years

This highly desirable Series II roadster was completed on November 6th 1969 and dispatched to Canada on November 21st 1969. Chassis 1R11361 was delivered to McMillan & Saunders Ltd of 3295 Derry Rd. E. in Malton, Ontario. It was sold new on May 11th of 1971 to Miss Mabel E. Coutts, a resident at the Sensenbrenner Hospital over 500 miles north in Kapuskasing, Ontario. Mr. Saunders signed the British Leyland "Passport to Service" as the selling dealer. All of this information was obtained from the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate and the Passport to Service Booklet.

This booklet documents the first service on August 16th 1971 with 3,184 miles on the odometer, at McMillan & Saunders. The next service entry is under the ownership of Mr. Stephen G. Leggett on May 10th 1972 at Thomas Plimley Ltd. in Victoria BC at 7,194 miles. Three-thousand of those miles are probably from the drive to Victoria from northern Ontario. The final entry in the Passport is also at Thomas Plimley Ltd. on September 6th 1974 at 14,178 miles, under the third and final owner.

Leggett sold his E-Type on August 16th 1973 to Ronald Draper, also of Victoria BC. Mr. Draper owned this Jaguar from 1973 to 2015. In those forty-two years of ownership he drove the Jaguar very little, due to having children later in life. In his own words, "it was useless" with two kids around. In more recent years he has enjoyed showing the E-Type at various classic car events on Vancouver Island. There are futher service records from the mid-1970s, late-1980s, 1990s and 2000s under Mr. Draper's ownership. The 20,599 miles showing on the odometer are absolutely original, as are the engine, gearbox, body, chassis and interior.

The XKE offered here is still in its original colour combination of "Ascot Fawn" over Beige Leather. It comes with a Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate, past service documents, license plates (BC Collectors), Passport to Service, two Owners/Operators Handbooks for the 4.2L Series II Jaguar E-Type (Editiions 154/3 and 154/4, both original to the car), a full original toolkit, spare belts, spare wipers, original spare, original jack and wheel hammer, original keys with full set of spare, antenna, and antenna keys. The original radio was swapped in 1972 for an "8-Track" player as they were the hot new technology of the day.

All carpeting, trunk liner, uphiolstery, dash, gauges etc are original and in very good condition with light patina. The body is likewise largely original, with perhaps some paintwork early in the 1970s. It meters very low on most panels (indicating it could be original paint). This Jaguar XKE is extremely well-maintained, largely original, and has pleasant road manners. Correct, detailed, and ready to go, it is sure to provide a wonderful open-air English motoring experience for its new owner.
