This beautifully presented Series I roadster is finished in Gunmetal Grey with black leather interior, it has recently undergone a comprehensive restoration process with a renowned E-Type specialist to a very high standard. All new trim complements the bare metal respray on what can be considered one of the most desirable E-Type's with gorgeous Series I body and the later 4.2 litre engine. Originating from St Louis, Missouri, this example is as per its supplied heritage certificate and is a fully matching numbers example. Offered in its original left hand drive guise as the vendor feels it is the perfect car for the continent and can be converted to right hand drive, for a fixed price of £4,000, should the new owner wish. Supplied with a NOVA number with all taxes paid, this example is awaiting its first registered UK keeper which could be you! This example justifies Enzo Ferraris comment that the Jaguar E-Type was the most beautiful car in the world.
