Offered here is a highly desirable Jaguar E-Type Series 3 V12 2+2, presented in its original and elegant factory colour combination of Pale Primrose Yellow over Black trim.
Manufactured on 17 December 1971 and dispatched new in January 1972 via J.R.J. Mansbridge of Lincoln, this right-hand-drive example retains its matching-numbers engine and is accompanied by a Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Production Record Trace Certificate, confirming its original specification and provenance.
This E-Type has benefitted from extensive restoration work, carried out to a high standard and comprehensively documented with extensive invoices and photographic records. Most notably, the engine was subject to a complete rebuild in 2021, ensuring strong performance and reliability, and at this time the ignition system was also upgraded.
The extra space of the Series 3 combined with the automatic transmission and power steering make for a very comfortable tourer, and this car presents as a well-sorted and highly usable example, combining originality with carefully considered mechanical improvements. Its factory-correct colour scheme, matching-numbers status, and accompanying heritage certification further underline its collectability.
A beautifully presented and thoroughly maintained example of Jaguar’s V12 flagship, this E-Type offers an excellent opportunity to acquire a documented, restored, and ready-to-enjoy car that is equally suited to touring, events, or inclusion in any collection.
