Owned the car 40 years. Very original, just a proper bare metal respray in original Carmen Red about 10 years ago, cellulose paint.
Heritage certificate shows car as Series 1.

Sold by South Norfolk Classic Cars of Diss in August 2026. Amended seller's description below.

1968 Jaguar E Type Series 1.5 4.2 litre manual Fixed Head Coupe. Matching numbers car finished in Carmen Red with Black leather interior. 73,000 miles from new and from very long term ownership with the previous owner purchasing it in 1977 when the car was just 9 years old. A tough decision was made to let the E Type go. This wonderful unrestored car was treated to a bare metal repaint roughly 23 years ago and with just the odd mark here and there presents well today.
Although MoT exempt we put the Jaguar in for a MoT as it has had little use over the last couple of years; it passed first time with no advisories. Comes with a fair amount of history and paperwork including Heritage certificate, owners manual, old MoTs and service bills. Possibly the best colour combination for an E Type and I agree with Enzo Ferrari when he referred to it as the most beautiful car ever!
