Price now reduced to £69,995
According to the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Heritage Certificate, this beautiful example - Chassis No: 861687 was built on 26th May 1964 and is Chassis No: 1687 of 1,799 RHD S1 3.8 Coupe's produced. It was supplied new by P J Evans in Birmingham to its first owner on 1st June 1964 and since then it has had 5 subsequent owners and only covered a genuine 81,564 miles from new and is a 'matching' numbers car!
The history file is a little scant, but there are invoices in the file dating back to 1993 and MOT certificates from 1991 onwards. The most recent and important invoices are from Jaguar specialist Derek Watson of WatJag Ltd in Great Longstone, Derbyshire who between Dec 2005 & Feb 2006 @ 81,189 miles rebuilt the original Engine, replaced the Clutch, renewed the Suspension bushes, replaced all 4 Disc Brakes and Hydraulics and lots of other ancillaries all totaling £8,700.
The car was hardly used by the owner before being sold and it was subsequently given to Essex County Classics in mid 2012 for a cosmetic restoration to complete the full restoration of the car.
This work included a complete stripping to bare metal, removal of all glass, trim, lights and exterior chrome-work ready for repainting. The car was then prepared and repainted to an exceptionally high standard in Rhodium Silver and most of the interior trim was replaced along with new carpets, new glass, re-chromed bumpers, numerous other chrome fittings, new chrome wire wheels with new tyres and a new stainless steel exhaust system. We are waiting for a breakdown of this work including an invoice, but suffice to say it totals over £25,000!

The quality of this workmanship really does need to be seen to be fully appreciated as the bodywork does look exceptional and it has the best 'panel gaps' that we have seen on an E Type Coupe!

The mileage now is 81,564 so the car has only covered 375 miles since the Engine and mechanical rebuild and it does feel very 'tight' and drives superbly. This is an exceptional car which is very competitively priced and is of course still appreciating!

The car will come with our own customer care package including a new MOT, HPi/Provenance Checks, 55-point pre-delivery inspection and 6 months mechanical breakdown Parts & Labour Warranty which can be upgraded and extended at additional cost if required.

The car is matching chassis/engine numbers, although the cylinder head has been replaced at some point in its life.
