Jaguar E-Type Series 3 V12 Roadster

Vehicle Description

The Jaguar E-Type Series III V12 Roadster from November 1973 is a superlative classic and one of the most impressive open-top sports cars of its era. With its iconic lines, powerful V12 engine, and luxurious Series III styling, it combines British elegance with superior performance.

The roadster is powered by the legendary 5.4-liter V12 engine with 276 hp, which is known for its exceptionally smooth running and impressive pulling power. The automatic transmission underlines the Gran Turismo character of the vehicle and makes the E-Type a relaxed yet very powerful touring car.

The vehicle originally came from California and was imported to the UK in around 2014. There, it underwent a complete mechanical restoration, with particular emphasis on originality and technical perfection. The engine was overhauled and rebuilt completely true to the original, so that the vehicle is now fully compliant with the original factory specifications.
The transmission and torque converter were completely overhauled by Alders Automotive. In addition, new shock absorbers, springs, and bushings were installed, giving the vehicle precise yet comfortable handling.

The roadster is presented in an elegant fern gray color with a black leather interior—an extremely harmonious and timeless combination. The documented mileage of 60,000 miles is consistent with its extensive history. Original vehicle documents, manuals, and numerous invoices are available. The vehicle has an H registration.

Particularly noteworthy: Hollywood actor Robert Reed is said to have been a previous owner in California, which further underscores the history of this E-Type.
