This Jaguar E-Type Series 2, with a 4.2-litre straight-six engine and a synchronised four-speed gearbox, was – like most of these beautiful coupés – exported to the USA and first registered in September 1969. Its history across the Atlantic is unknown – although it is thought that the bodywork was restored at some point and the car was fitted with a 4.2-litre engine from a late-model XJ 6 saloon. In 1992, the car was imported via England by its last owner and added to his collection. To register it in Switzerland, the speedometer was converted from miles to kilometres and reset to zero. Over the last 34 years, the Jaguar has been used for occasional drives but has spent most of its time in a dry storage facility. It has covered just 4'400 km, and a dedicated in-house mechanic was responsible for regular servicing and upcoming roadworthiness tests. In recent years, however, the coupé has not been driven due to health reasons. Currently, the bodywork and interior are in good condition, showing the usual signs of wear and tear. The engine and gearbox are in perfect working order; however, due to the long period of inactivity, a major service and a general inspection will certainly be required. The last veteran MOT took place in August 2020.
