SUMMARY

An older restoration that's recently been refreshed, this fresh to market, matching numbers, manual gearbox Series 3 awaits its next custodian. 

 

DESCRIPTION

Finished in its original colour scheme of Old English White with a black interior and hood, this manual gearbox Series 3 Jaguar E-Type 5.3-litre V12 Roadster rolled off the production line on 1st August 1971 before being delivered to Howells of Cardiff some days later. Fully restored by renowned specialist Mike Mercer of Auto Classico in Bristol, the Jaguar was purchased as a wedding present in 2014 by its present owner before hibernating in long-term storage the year after.  Recently seeing the light of day once again after almost 20 years, the car has now been fully recommissioned by ‘Project Heaven’ remaining resplendent in every way, a testament to the specialists that carried out the exacting rebuild all those years ago. Accompanied by a photographic record of the rebuild, this fresh to market, matching-numbers Series 3 with its desirable manual gearbox awaits its next custodian and is ready to be pressed into service once again.
