1970 Jaguar E-type (XKE) coupe. The car has 4.2L engine with 4
speed manual transmission, Air Conditioning Triplex Electrically Heated back glass, and nice Chrome Wire Wheels.
It is a Light Blue Car with Dark Blue Interior. It is all matching numbers. I have the Jaguar Heritage
Certificate that states the Following:
Date of Manufacture 8 December 1969
Transmission Manual
Exterior Paint Colour Light Blue
Interior Trim Colour Dark Blue
Date of Dispatch 19 December 1969
The original owner was a lady who didn’t drive it much and kept having trouble with the carbs. She traded it in
1973 for a MGB GT. The 2nd owner bought it in 1973 from the dealer and Rarely used the car. He had the car
striped to bare metal in 1974 and had the car repainted in the factory color. Apparently the original owner would
park the car under a shade tree at work and the tree sap etched the paint to a point the 2nd owner had it
repainted. After painting the car he kept the car rust proofed with oil in all the seams, the doors, the Bonnet,
the trunk, Rockers, the rear quarters everything. The car was parked in 1986 inside his garage with a sheet over
it with only 35,570 miles on the odometer. He would put some Marvel Mystery oil in the cylinders from time to time
but never started car. I bought the car from the 2nd owner. It is straight out of storage with all the dust just
the way I found it. The car currently has a header but it has the original manifolds and shield . It also has the
original owner’s manual, jack, hammer, and knock off tool. I even have a speeding ticket the previous owner got
in 1975! I have not tried to start car but the motor does turn over. The car is totally rust free and has never
been wrecked.

Jaguar releases Desire short film starring F-Type and Damian Lewis
Wed, 24 Apr 2013After stoking the hype with a theatrical-style trailer, Jaguar has finally released the full-length version of its mini-movie, Desire, to help kick off the new 2014 Jaguar F-Type. Starring Homeland actor Damian Lewis across from the lovely Shannyn Sossamon, the film has been turned loose on YouTube after an initial debut at the Sundance London film and music festival.
Shot in Chile's rather breathtaking Atacama Desert, Desire is described by the producers as being "A story of betrayal, retribution, passion and greed." Lewis plays the lead role of Clark, a high-end car delivery guy (great work if you can get it), who runs into an unexpected, sexy mystery when shuttling the lovely F-Type to the middle of nowhere. Who could have guessed?
We won't spoil any of the not-exactly-serious 13-minute plot for you; scroll down below to see for yourself if the theatrical pomp and circumstance is worthy of Jag's newest roadster.
Jaguar F Type V6 S vs Triumph Street Triple R in open-air track attack
Sun, 21 Sep 2014Typically, these track battle videos pair up car against car or, in more disparate circumstances, car versus crossover, as we saw the other day. While the outcome of that battle was quite predictable, what'll happen when an equally fetching (and fast) four-wheeler is put up against one of the icons of the two-wheeled world? Evo just had to find out.
Matching up a Jaguar F-Type V6 S Convertible against a Triumph Street Triple R is at least more of an even fight than the last battle between the Porsche Cayman GTS and Macan Turbo. The Triumph has a 675-cc engine to work with, and is very light. Meanwhile, the Jag has a thumping 380-horsepower, 3.0-liter, supercharged V6 to haul about it's considerably heftier heft. Who will come out on top?
You'll need to watch the full video to find out.
Jaguar says F-Type sales off to flying start
Fri, 31 May 2013As we noted in our recent first drive, Jaguar's luscious new F-Type roadster is a bit of a tweener in both size and cost, lining up in between rival Porsche's Boxster and 911. That one-for-two-segment strategy is showing early signs of paying off, with Automotive News reporting that half of the car's 2014 production allotment is already sold. We're not talking huge numbers - sports cars in this segment only "have a global annual volume of about 75,000 units and a market share of 0.1 percent," notes Jaguar brand director Adrian Hallmark. Yet the company figures the F-Type will work out to about 15 to 20 percent of its total volume of around 60,000 units.
From where we sit, this is all very encouraging news, but it's way too early to call the F-Type a smash hit. The sports car segment is known for its fickleness and its front-loaded sales curve, so the real measure of success will be how it fares over the next few years after early adopters get their cars. Jaguar will have to work to keep the F-Type fresh with new variants, and we hear it's prepared to do just that. The British luxury marque hasn't confirmed a hardtop coupe variant yet, but patent images and spy shots suggest one is on the way shortly, and it ought to extend the model's appeal greatly. A four-cylinder option and a manual transmission have also been rumored, and presumably Jaguar will eventually launch higher-performance R and R-S variants as it has done with various model lines, including its other sporty two door, the XK grand tourer.
