1967 Jaguar E-type Roadster (ots) - Gorgeous, All Numbers Matching Series I Xke on 2040-cars
Year:1967
Mileage:29541
Location:
Santa Barbara, California, United States
|
Offered for sale is an absolutely gorgeous, entirely numbers
matching, completely rust-free 1967 Jaguar E-Type OTS finished in factory
correct (per the original JDHT certificate) and perpetually tasteful Cream over
black leather with an original, solid and unmolested undercarriage. Often
mistaken for Old English White (which was offered on XKs between 1952-1961 and
on Series II and III E-Types from 1970-1974), Cream was Jaguar’s color
designation for white between 1962-1969, a timeless and understated hue that
perfectly offsets the E-Types lasciviously styled body. In terms of
desirability, closed headlamp Series I E-Types are at the top of the list and
final year examples are considered by many to be the most sought after, blending
the preferred early design cues with the stronger, more reliable 4.2L inline
six. If you’re looking for an excellent investment that you can drive and
enjoy, this 1967 E-Type checks all the important boxes. Delivered new to an attorney in Moline, Illinois, he would own
the car for the better part of three decades, eventually selling it to a local
business associate. The second owner kept the car in Moline until 2005, when it
was acquired by a Jaguar enthusiast from Cedar Rapids, Iowa. We came across the
car late last year and found it to be in lovely condition – very strong
mechanically, cosmetically beautiful, entirely rust-free and honest – a
testament to the high level of care afforded by its three previous owners. Throughout
its life the car has been a garage queen, enjoyed in moderation, properly
maintained and garaged, with refurbishments taking place as needed. That said,
it’s worth reinforcing that at its core this is an exceptionally original, numbers matching example. Professionally refinished, the factory correct Cream paint is in fantastic shape: deep, lustrous 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 consistent gaps and panel fits throughout. The brightwork and all of the glass is in good original condition, as are the knock-off chrome wire wheels. The interior is equally as clean, the seats having been recently reupholstered in the correct leather and the soft top and accompanying boot cover having been replaced. Late Series I Roadsters are exalted amongst motoring enthusiasts,
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 well and the exhaust note from the dual
stainless system is fantastic, the perfect accompaniment to the visceral, grin-inducing
ride quality. 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 fetching outlandish prices in recent collector car auctions, this is an excellent opportunity to acquire a fairly priced, honest, beautiful, very original and appreciating final year example with strong, numbers matching mechanicals and clean aesthetics. Whether it will continue service as a cherished weekend driver, as a Jaguar Club of North America touring and event participant or as a welcomed addition to a collection, this gorgeous example needs nothing to be enjoyed but a doting new owner. 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.

Reed Motorcars 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. |

2023 Jaguar F-Pace SVR Edition 1988 begins the brand's reset
Fri, Jun 10 2022At the end of last month, Jaguar hit the 'Delete' button on nearly ten years of Instagram posts, replacing them with three images of the Jaguar XJR-9 endurance racer that won the 1988 24 Hours of Le Mans. We made two conjectures as to what it could mean, the first being, "a limited-edition version of an existing car inspired by the XJR-9 could be around the corner." And here we have none other than a limited-edition version of an existing Jaguar, called the F-Pace SVR Edition 1988. Created by the SV Bespoke division with help from Special Vehicle Operations and the design team, this is the Jaguar's first limited edition F-Pace; the brand will make just 394 of them for global consumption, celebrating the number of laps the XJR-9 completed during its win at La Sarthe. The changes are cosmetic, sadly, which means no 7.0-liter V12 up front. The standard supercharged 5.0-liter serves here, making the standard 550 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque. It looks more sinister than ever, though, hidden behind Midnight Amethyst paint and a set of 22-inch Champagne Gold forged alloy wheels. If that weren't enough to announce itself, there are also Sunset Gold Satin accents that contrast with the standard Black Package, such as the Edition 1988 badging on the fenders, leaper badge in back and tailgate script. A silver "SV Bespoke commissioning graphic" informs that each model is "One of 394." Inside, occupants find more Sunset Gold on the steering wheel, shift paddles, instrument panel and ventilated Performance Seats. They're offset by semi-aniline leather everywhere, and carbon fiber trim finishers. Jaguar mentions as well that it's incorporated what3words navigation into the Pivi Pro infotainment system. A combination of three terms identifies three-square-meter blocks (32.3 square feet) around the world, the phrase "echo.twin.papers" providing directions to the Empire State Building, for instance. The F-Pace SVR Edition 1988 starts at $111,150 after the $1,150 destination charge, a $23,400 surcharge over the base F-Pace SVR. Now we wait to find out about our second surmise for the brand — a return to old-school competition with an endurance racing program. It's unlikely for tens of millions of reasons, but we'd love to see the cat back at that French country house with Acura, Audi, BMW, Cadillac, Lamborghini and Porsche.

Jaguar F-Type convertible rally car might be the coolest F-Type ever
Mon, Nov 12 2018The Jaguar F-Type is a sweet sports car. Rally cars are awesome. Put the two together, and you have one seriously cool ride, which is exactly what Jaguar did. The company took two F-Type convertibles and turned them into rally-ready race cars. They're built to commemorate a 1948 XK 120 that took home several European rally victories, and they share some of the visual tweaks of the Checkered Flag Edition F-Type. These custom Jags likely won't see serious competition, but they're certainly built to handle it. They have FIA-certified roll cages, racing seats, harnesses and a fire extinguisher. The suspension features three-way adjustable rally shocks and soft springs for rough roads and, as shown above, jumps. Brakes are upgraded with slotted rotors and four-piston calipers at all four corners. There's a hydraulic handbrake and a limited-slip differential that should make sliding around corners much easier. Interestingly, these F-Types use the entry-level turbocharged four-cylinder engine. The engines also haven't been upgraded at all, so they make the standard 296 horsepower. As such, this F-Type is only in the running for being the coolest version ever, rather than running away with such a commendation. Sadly, it appears Jaguar will only ever build these two examples. But we bet that someone could replicate one without too much difficulty. That someone could perhaps even start with a V6 or V8 convertible, giving it more power and a way better sound to enjoy through that open-air roll cage. Related Video:
Jaguar I-Pace EV will finally be revealed, available to order March 1
Wed, Jan 31 2018It sure feels like the Jaguar I-Pace electric car concept was revealed longer ago than November 2016. That might be because in addition to running barely camouflaged production models around for months, the company has even announced a one-make race series with the car before we've seen the revealed production model. But the wait is almost over. The company finally announced a reveal date of March 1. This comes just before the Geneva Motor Show, and the debut will be shown on a livestream. Not only that, but Jaguar will be taking orders for the EV the same day. Reveal and order dates weren't the only things Jaguar announced regarding the I-Pace. The company also said the I-Pace will be able to get an 80 percent charge from a DC fast charger in just 45 minutes. This charge time necessitates a 100-kW fast charger, though, so that time may vary in real life based on what chargers are available. This is also greater charging capability than Jaguar claimed when the concept was revealed, which promised an 80 percent charge in two hours on a 50-kW fast charger. Jaguar hasn't revealed many other details about the production car yet. When the concept was shown, Jaguar claimed it made 400 horsepower and had a range of 220 miles. The prototypes we've seen on the road also look extremely similar to the concept, so there shouldn't be much, if any, disappointment in the styling department when it's revealed. Related Video:
