'DVJ 116B' is a matching numbers right-hand drive 3.8-litre Fixed Head Coupe from 1964. It sports Red bodywork and Black leather upholstery. In May 2009 it became part of a very large Continental car collection, where it has benefited from a considerable degree of refurbishment, including: a total respray, re-upholstery of the seats and new headlining and carpets. Recent mechanical attention has seen the overhauling of the brake system and rear axle. The E-type has not ventured onto the roads during this period, but has been treated to a strict preservation programme that included regular start-ups, and the Jaguar is currently said to be "on the button".

The vendor classes the bodywork, six-cylinder XK engine and four-speed manual transmission as "very good" and the paintwork and interior trim as "new". He is now selling the car complete with sunroof, driver's handbook, workshop and special tuning manuals, Heritage Certificate and invoices totalling £7,000. The E-Type's odometer currently reads an unwarranted 38,162 miles and it will require a fresh MOT and tax before returning to the Queen's highway.

1 of 1,799 RHD 3.8 Fixed-Head Coupes made, chassis 861685 is understood to possess `matching' chassis and engine numbers. Reportedly treated to a back axle overhaul prior to entering the current ownership in May 2009, it has formed part of a large Continental car collection ever since. Dry stored for the past four years, the Jaguar has nevertheless been cosmetically enhanced via a full respray, re-trimmed seats, renewed headlining and fresh carpets. Brought up to MOT standard last year by Classic Performance Engineering Ltd of Long Buckby, Northants, the E-Type had attention paid to its windscreen wipers / washers, steering column / rack, front brakes and headlights etc. Described by the vendor as being in "good" (four-speed manual gearbox, bodywork) or "very good" (paintwork, upholstery, engine) condition, `DUJ 116B' is offered for sale with a driver's handbook, workshop / special tuning manuals, Heritage Certificate, current MOT and invoices totalling over £8,000.
