Auction description:
RM | Sotheby's - ESSEN 26 - 27 MARCH 2020
Chassis No. 881177
Retains its original engine and gearbox|
Offered from 15 years of single ownership
Fully restored and equipped with several upgrades including high-performance brakes and a stainless-steel exhaust
Originally delivered to the United States in 1964, this stunning E-Type resided there until 1988 before being shipped to Germany by a collector who restored it to a very high standard. It was subsequently acquired by a collector in North Rhine-West. The current owner added this beautiful Jaguar to his own stable of fine British and Italian sports cars in 2004. It has had an H registration for the last 15 years and has been exercised on a regular basis.
Upgrades include a Coopercraft high-performance brake system, high-performance ignition coil and ignition cable set, new spoke rims, a stainless-steel exhaust system, new clutch, as well as an additional thermal fan for reliability. The original Smith dash instruments have also been rebuilt. A complete file of receipts documenting all the parts and service performed accompany the car.
This highly desirable Series I Roadster, fastidiously serviced and ready to be enjoyed, presents beautifully in gunmetal grey with red leather. Perfectly suited for touring and club events, the E-Type Jaguar represents a milestone in sports-car design and engineering that collectors and enthusiasts have admired for decades.
