Get ready to embark on an unforgettable journey through time, as we proudly present one of the remaining Series 2 roadsters from the late 1960s.
The Jaguar XKE, affectionately known as the “E-Type,” left the world in awe when it was unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in 1961. Even Enzo Ferrari, the famed Italian automaker, hailed it as the most beautiful car he had ever laid eyes on. This sleek masterpiece was the result of the artistic vision of aerodynamicist Malcolm Sayer, with crucial inputs from Sir William Lyons. The E-Type coupe and roadsters revolutionised the automotive world and captured the hearts of enthusiasts worldwide. Now, you have the exclusive opportunity to experience automotive history firsthand with our Gunmetal Grey 1969 Series 2 roadster. Its timeless beauty is perfectly complemented by luxurious black leather seats and a console, inviting you into an era of elegance and refinement. This particular E-Type began its life at a dealership in New York and later found its way to California before ultimately reaching us in the UK. The well-maintained 4. 2-litre straight-six engine, often regarded as bulletproof, purrs to life, delivering a symphony of automotive harmony that leaves you enamoured.
As you take the wheel, you’ll find pure joy in experiencing analogue driving at its finest. The Smiths rev counter dances with each shift, amplifying the excitement of piloting this sporting legend. There’s nothing quite like the tactile connection between driver and machine that the E-Type provides, making it a cherished experience for automotive purists and connoisseurs alike. It is verified and recognised by Jaguar’s Heritage Trust, reaffirming its significance and value as a genuine piece of automotive history.
So, if you know a Jaguar enthusiast who deserves the best, this is an invitation to gift them an extraordinary experience, cruising through Surrey, London, or the Home Counties in a classic beauty that defined an era and continues to captivate hearts today. Embark on a journey through time, where elegance meets performance, and automotive history comes alive with every turn of the wheel.
