Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
A cherished 1973 E-Type Series 3 Roadster with low ownership and extensive recent mechanical and cosmetic overhauls totaling over £40,000. Presented in red with a black leather interior, this V12 grand tourer boasts a well-maintained engine and a solid chassis, though minor paint imperfections and a cracked rear lamp lens are noted.

The interior is tidy with recent carpets, though there's a slight tear to the gear gaiter. Tyres are from 2018 with good tread.
