Auction description:
Lot 430
1964 Jaguar Type E 3,8 litre coupé
No reserve
Belgian registration
Chassis # 889998

- In beautiful condition
- The E-Type in its purest and most elegant version
- 25 years in the same family

Originally a U.S. version, the Jaguar E-Type that we are offering was purchased in 1988 through the garage Coventry Motor in Brussels. Since then, the car has not left the family. Black in colour, which beautifully highlights the car's line of timeless elegance, this car does not seem to have been used much lately and will probably need to be overhauled. The condition is nice, and inside, the interior is neat and features a Blaupunkt radio. The wooden steering wheel's spokes goes perfectly well with the black upholstery, all calling for a quick but friendly drive in an atmosphere of chic and luxury. The body style is a coupe and is from the first series, specialists agree that it is the purest and most beautiful of all the E-Types, offering a design that remains among the most spectacular in the history of the automobile. This car has remained 25 years in the same family and will bring to its new owner a technically aesthetic pleasure, not forgetting of course the exhilaration provided by its six-cylinder twin camshaft engine, one of the most famous of its time.

Estimation 50 000 - 80 000 €
