The Appeal
A V12-engined, automatic 2+2 Coupé could well be the ultimate grand touring E-Type. This car will eat up miles with impunity and you’ll look supremely stylish while doing it.
Recently imported from Kuwait where we understand it has been subject to some restoration work, this 1972 Series 3 Jaguar E-Type looks fantastic in the timeless colour combination of green over cream leather. The vendor has offered to register it in the UK in readiness for the next owner, although the car will require some recommissioning prior to use, remaining untested since arriving on Britain’s shores.
For those seeking a highly usable E-Type, this looks like a fantastic candidate.
