The Classic Sale at Silverstone 2022
Lot Number 448
Registration Number VGN 32M
Chassis Number 1S2517
Engine Number 7S13345SB
Body Colour Blue
This remarkable Series 3 Roadster has covered a warranted 33,000 miles from new. A home-market, right-hand drive, manual gearbox car, VGM 32M was delivered new to the current owner's company as his 'new company car'. When the time came to replace it in the late seventies, he was able to buy it from the company and has kept it ever since. Being 6’ 4” tall, he moved the mirrors from the doors to the bonnet in order to be of use, and then subsequently made the mounting holes good and painted the doors, however, the rest of the Lavender Blue paint is original. Having been used very lightly over the last few years and stored under cover at his Bournemouth weekend home, there is now evidence of some 'micro blistering' of the paintwork and potential purchasers might want to spend some time examining that prior to bidding and whilst most people may not even notice it, our vendor is keen to point it out particularly as it's such a rare and distinctive colour. The car is essentially original as you might expect with just 33,000 miles and retains its original dark blue interior, hood and carpets etc.

It was recently serviced by Epping Jaguar including a fuel pump and is accompanied by a lovely history file with its original warranty card, handbook, MOTs to corroborate the indicated mileage, invoices for works etc.

This Series 3 has a lot going for it; UK-supplied, manual gearbox, one keeper from new, 32,570 miles and a super rare colour. Come and have a look.
