The car presents well with good bodywork, starts easily, and sounds fantastic. Recent maintenance includes a complete rewire, stainless steel exhaust, electronic ignition, and Spax adjustable rear dampers. However, there is slight wear visible, and minor reconditioning may be required to bring it to a higher standard.

For many enthusiasts today, the values of genuine Series 1 E-Type roadsters have risen to such heady heights that ownership is simply out of reach for most.
Nevertheless, a proven and practical alternative can be found in a Challenger.
The 'Challenger' E-Type was manufactured by Triple C from 1985 to 1992 and had the blessing of Jaguar.
Using moulds taken from an original Series 1 3.8, dimensions are consequently accurate and Jaguar engines, suspension, instrumentation and brightwork could be fitted.
In addition to the cost of ownership, other advantages over the original include a glass fibre body and galvanised chassis helping to minimise corrosion issues, better braking using XJ6 components, improved fuel economy with overdrive or 5-speed gearboxes and more modern electrical systems.
This Challenger was built using an XJ6 donor in 1989 and is powered by Jaguar’s iconic 4.2-litre straight-six with twin SU HS8 carburettors mated to 5-speed manual transmission.
