Bare metal restoration in 2010 Offered with an MOT until April 2019, issued with no advisories, with a history file and a Heritage certificate This is an excellent example of a genuine UK-supplied, right-hand drive, manual gearbox, 1969 E-Type Series II 2+2 Coupe with only four previous owners.

Thompson.

ALX then became the property of its 4th owner, Mr S. Jones of Shrewsbury, who purchased the car in 2009. His intention was to restore the Jaguar and during 2010 the following work was carried out.
