Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1962 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 3.8 Roadster is presented in white with a black interior and has been owned by the same enthusiast for 50 years. It underwent a complete overhaul in the 1980s and recently passed an MOT with a few advisories, indicating some minor reconditioning is needed.

Condition 

6

The car has several advisories on its most recent MOT, including worn suspension, exhaust blow, oil leak, and a loose battery. While it passed, these indicate some necessary reconditioning. The paint was also redone in 1970, and while not explicitly stated as a negative, older paintwork can have imperfections. The mileage is also not warranted. These factors suggest it's in 'Good' condition, requiring some reconditioning.
