1961 JAGUAR E-TYPE 3.8 ROADSTER - €225,000

Jaguar E-type 3.8 Litre OTS, year 1961. Colour cream white (Old English white) combined with a red leather interior, red carpet and a black mohair soft-top. This is a “matching numbers” car, a certificate from the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust is present to confirm this. This gorgeous Jaguar E-Type was built in July 1961 and delivered a few months later to its first owner in California USA. This Jaguar E-type series 1 OTS (Open Two-Seater, also named “roadster” in the USA) is an early example which can be recognized by the OBL “outside bonnet latches”. Only 386 E-type OTS cars were built to the early specifications, this car is production number 305. The current Dutch owner imported the car from Italy in 2017. In the period 2017 – 2021 the automobile was extensively restored and overhauled to factory original specifications. Where possible the original parts were kept and restored, worn parts were renewed. The first Jaguar E-type 3.8 Litre model is the sportiest and most desirable version. The 3.8 Litre XK engine, fitted with 3 S.U. carburettors, has an output of 265 bhp which comes close to the 270 of the Le Mans D-type racing cars. The E-type accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 6,9 seconds to reach a top speed of 240 km/h, hyper car figures in the 1960s! This rare early Jaguar E-type shows wonderful original details like the special bucket seats, the dashboard with aluminium finish and the 3.8 Litre cylinder head with pumpkin orange finish. The later models featured a gold painted finish. The car is fitted with chrome wire wheels shod with Vredestein 185 R 15 Sprint Classic tyres, and a Stainless-Steel exhaust instead of a mild steel version as originally fitted. Since completion of the restoration this wonderful car has driven just shy of 2000 kilometres. This rare early Jaguar E-type is a great find for the Jaguar Collector and enthusiast! We speak Dutch, English , German and French. Our cars can be delivered with Dutch, German or Belgium registration. We can assist with the French registration. Transport to your door is possible. We have our own workshop facility with 30 years experience with classic cars.
