FULL DESCRIPTION & HISTORY
72, 000 MILES
This 1967 Jaguar has benefitted from an extensive restoration, which included a bare metal respray, engine rebuild, and numerous sensible upgrades. The car's Signal Red exterior paired with a Cream leather interior makes it a head-turner, while the upgraded electronic ignition and alternator ensure significantly improved reliability.
Since, then, it has enjoyed regular servicing with classic car specialists and there's a comprehensive history file detailing all of the work carried out. The car has covered less than 10, 000 miles since its restoration
