Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1962 Jaguar XKE Series I coupe, family-owned for 60 years, was refurbished in 2004 with a rebuilt 3.8L engine and repainted in its original black. It features a retrimmed black leather interior, chrome wire wheels, and comes with refurbishment records and a Heritage Trust certificate, though it has some noted chips and an unknown total mileage.

Condition

7

The car underwent a refurbishment in 2004 which included body repairs, a repaint in the original black, interior retrimming with black leather, and rebuilding of the engine and transmission. The listing mentions chips around the body, and the odometer was reset during the refurbishment, so the total mileage is unknown. There is evidence of cosmetic imperfections and wear, but overall, the car appears to be in solid condition, requiring minor reconditioning.
