United Kingdom • 17 Oct 2026 • Lot 239
Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
A restored 1968 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 2+2 Coupe, originally a LHD US import converted to RHD with a manual transmission and overdrive. This red over black example has been in the same family for over 25 years and was recently recommissioned, addressing known mechanical issues.
The car presents as a great looking, useable classic, driven to the auction house, but is not concourse. It features a detailed engine bay, lovely chrome, and wire wheels, making it a desirable option for enthusiasts seeking a well-maintained E-Type with some unique modifications.

The car has undergone an earlier restoration and is described as a 'very pleasant and well cared for example' that is 'very nice and useable'. While not concourse, it's in good overall condition with a clean engine bay and boot, lovely chrome, and has been recently recommissioned with a new petrol tank and full wiring loom to solve overheating issues. It also benefits from an overdrive and modified differential for comfortable motorway cruising. However, it's not pristine, and the restoration, while to a high standard, was completed some time ago.

We come across quite a few E-Type Jaguars on our travels, but this one is a little better than the majority we see.
We are not going to tell you it’s concourse because it’s not, but it is very nice and useable.
In fact, it was driven to our premises and the only reason it is for sale is due to a bereavement, otherwise it was a long term keeper having already been in the family for 25 years.
The Jaguar is finished in red with black leather, the chrome is lovely, and it is sitting on wire wheels with a very detailed and clean engine bay and boot area.
All-in-all, a great looking example that does all it’s meant to do very well.
It is showing two previous owners, as it was transferred between the family because of the bereavement.
The E-Type was built in late 1968 and dispatched to New York on 29/1/1969 as a LHD example finished in black with an automatic gearbox, as the production details from Jaguar tell us.
After a detailed restoration it is now red, manual and RHD.
