AI Listing Summary

This 1961 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 3.8 Roadster is a rare, early example with desirable features like flat floor and outside bonnet locks.

Condition 

7

The car has had a recent £58,000 mechanical restoration, but the paintwork has minor stone chips on the bonnet and light scratches on the front wheel arches. The interior is presented in excellent order, but the driver’s seat has slight creasing. There are also a few blemishes and deteriorated rubber seals on the unrestored hard-top roof.
