This 1970 Jaguar XKE Series II roadster was refurbished in the early 2000s and acquired by the current owner in 2005. It has been repainted metallic light blue over dark blue leather and is powered by a 4.2-liter inline-six equipped with triple SU carburetors and linked with a four-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Equipment includes a dark blue soft top, a louvered clamshell hood, four-wheel disc brakes, 15″ wire wheels, a wood-rimmed steering wheel, an AM/FM radio, and a heater. This XKE roadster is now offered by the seller on behalf of the current owner in Canada with Alberta registration.

Said to have been originally finished in British Racing Green, the car was repainted metallic light blue in the early 2000s, and exterior equipment includes a replacement dark blue soft top, sealed-beam open headlights, dual side mirrors, wraparound chrome bumpers, bright trim, a louvered clamshell hood, and dual exhaust outlets.

Chrome 15″ wire wheels are secured by two-eared knock-offs and are mounted with 185/65 Continental Touring Contact tires that show date codes from 2001. Braking is provided by four-wheel discs with inboard-mounted rear rotors.

The cabin features bucket seats upholstered in bark blue leather along with a color-coordinated center console, door panels, and carpets. Interior appointments include an AM/FM radio, a locking glovebox, and a heater.

The wood-rimmed steering wheel frames Smiths instrumentation including a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 5k-rpm redline as well as an analog clock and gauges for voltage, oil pressure, coolant temperature, and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows 2k miles, approximately 500 of which were added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.

The 4.2-liter inline-six has been fitted with triple SU carburetors, and it was rated at 246 horsepower and 263 lb-ft of torque when new. The seller notes an oil leak that is believed to be from the front timing chain cover.

Power is routed to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential.

The vehicle is being sold on its Alberta registration, which serves as the ownership document in Alberta, Canada. The sale does not include a title.
