Offered for sale is a beautiful, mechanically fantastic, entirely honest and correct, numbers matching 1967 Jaguar E-Type Open Two Seater (OTS) finished in factory correct and wonderfully era-specific Primrose over Black leather. A solid and correct car to begin with, the previous owner undertook a costly restoration process in 2005 including paint, body, chrome, upholstery, undercarriage and mechanicals. Consequently, the car still presents beautifully, showing only the negligible wear accrued through the occasional fair weather weekend drive following its completion. Whether it will continue its service as a cherished weekend driver or as a worthy Jaguar Club of North America event participant, this gorgeous example needs nothing but a new doting owner to be enjoyed.

The correct Primrose finish is fantastic: deep, lustrous, completely consistent and marred only by the most insignificant of imperfections, none of which are visible in the pictures. The body is entirely straight, free of dings or dents and retaining even and uniform gaps and panel fits throughout. The brightwork is in excellent shape, as is all of the glass and rubber, and the chrome knock-off wire wheels are wrapped in nearly new radial tires. The interior has been reupholstered in all the correct materials and presents as nicely as it did leaving the factory. The seats, carpets and interior panels are all virtually flawless and the soft top shows only the most minimal wear with a crystal clear rear window and an original boot cover. The car’s undercarriage is entirely restored, correct and free of rust and the engine compartment is detailed and gorgeous. 

Final model year E-Type Series I roadsters are among the most desirable Jaguars on the market, thanks in no small part to the venerable 4.2L engine. Firing up without hesitation, the engine idles consistently, pulls strongly and smoothly through each of the gearbox’s four gears with excellent compression across all cylinders. The cooling system works exceptionally well and the exhaust note from the dual stainless system is fantastic, allowing for grin-inducing performance in nearly any situation. The car drives and brakes straight and true, the suspension is tight and the car is a joy to drive, whether tooling through town, roaring through the canyons or bombing down the highway. 

With Series I E-Types selling at outlandish prices in recent auctions (as much as $425k domestically), this car represents an excellent opportunity to acquire an excellent, appreciating example that is exceptionally well restored, numbers matching, mechanically excellent, honest and correct. Please bid accordingly. 

We want this car to go to great home and would be happy to further discuss it and answer any questions, so please feel free to email us or call us at 805-202-4557. You can also visit us online at GoodmanReed.

We’ve always had an appreciation for classic European cars and over the years have created an eclectic personal collection. We only buy cars that we’d personally be interested in owning and generally only sell them to make room for other acquisitions. That time has come for this Jaguar (if the price is right, of course – this isn’t a fire sale). We try to give accurate descriptions of the cars we’re selling, but we’re enthusiasts, not experts, and we encourage and are happy to help facilitate personal or professional inspections. But please do so before bidding, as the alternative harms our ability to make sales to other interested parties who have done their proper due diligence before bidding. 

For U.S. buyers a 10% non-refundable deposit is required within 3 days of the auction’s end, the balance to be paid within 7 days of the auction’s end. Foreign buyers must pay in full within 7 business days of the auction’s end. Buyer is responsible for shipping, however we’d be more that happy to help with recommendations and arrangements. The car is listed locally and we reserve the right to end the auction at any time should it sell prior to auction’s end. Thanks for your interest.

2018 Jaguar F-Pace: Ambient lighting is fun and frustrating

Fri, Dec 29 2017

Like so many other automobiles from this decade, our long-term Jaguar F-Pace crossover has customizable interior lighting, a part of the $2,350 Luxury Interior Package. I've previously admitted to the fact that ambient lighting has me split in opinion. On the one hand I know that it's probably going to end up being dated and uncool in the future. On the other, I actually quite enjoy it, possibly because I grew up in the neon-fueled world of early '00s import tuner culture. I also like it from a color-coordination perspective. Our Jaguar's bold blue hue called Caesium can be brought inside with equally bright illumination. It's very satisfying. But that satisfaction of having everything just so is quickly sullied as the center stack and switches are only one color that can't be changed. Admittedly, that's completely normal, but unlike many of those other cars that use neutral white illumination, the Jag's light up in the same blue/teal color that made your Razr phone look cool so many years ago. And so whether you bathe your cabin in blue, red, purple or green light, the ambient lighting will clash with the main switch gear. You can pick a shade of blue for the ambient lighting that roughly matches the switches, but I don't want to compromise my color preference because Jaguar didn't put in LEDs in that would be neutral (or, even better, change to match the ambient settings). I have other complaints about color-matching in the car, too. The instrument panel, which is a flat screen, has a few different display modes, but most of the readouts use a similar (but not quite the same) blue/teal color as the switchgear. So that doesn't match, either. Then, in the sport mode, the instrument screen switches to red. That brings me to my next gripe: all the ambient lighting switches to red when choosing this mode. I get it, red means sporty and Jaguar wants everything about sport mode to feel sporty. But damn it, I paid for custom lighting, let me keep that lighting when I'm also in a sporty mood. I actually sometimes skip the sport mode because I want to be swathed in my favorite hue more than I want slightly more sporty driving dynamics. Oh, and of course the switchgear remains teal/blue even in sport mode. So yes, this is picky. But that's the beauty of evaluating a car like the F-Pace over a longer period of time.

Jaguar F-Type greets US, shows off range of personalization

Thu, 29 Nov 2012

While the debut of the XFR-S is likely fresh on everyone's minds and browser windows, the other big story of late at Jaguar is the F-Type coupe and convertible. Originally unveiled in Paris, the LA show was the first opportunity that the sub-XK performance machine will be seen Stateside. However, it was not just the same news that we first heard in Paris, as Jaguar used LA to showcase its newly available "Black" design pack.
This styling package includes gloss black finishes for the grill surround, side vents, a flat-bottomed sport steering wheel, gloss black interior touches, and instrument panel rings. This package is available with Ultimate Black, Polaris White, Italian Racing Red, Rhodium Silver, Grey and Firesand (seen above) body colors.
The Black pack can be had on either the 3.0-liter supercharged V6 model, or the 5.0-liter supercharged V8 version. Specific additional "Black" tweaks are available based on which derivative you select. Specifically, a gloss-black rear valence is a V6-only modification.
