Description
KEY FACTS This Series 1 ‘Flat Floor’ Jaguar E-Type 3.8 Roadster is a very rare and highly sought-after classic British sports car, which benefits from an extensive previous restoration.
Under the bonnet sits a naturally aspirated 3.8-litre straight-six, fed by triple SU carburettors, which sends its power to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission.
This original UK-market example was first registered in November 1961, and has been with its current and fourth owner for nearly two years, where it has formed part of a significant private collection.
It was discovered as a ‘barn find’ after being kept in storage for around 45 years, and underwent an extensive restoration between 2016 and 2017.
This E-Type Series 1 3.8 Roadster is the 107th of only 400 right-hand drive ‘flat floor’ examples produced.
The odometer indicates 8,853 miles, though this is not warranted.
