private Sale
York, United Kingdom
A cherished British classic, this is a UK-market Jaguar E-Type Series 2 4.2 Roadster, celebrated for its elegant design and strong performance credentials.
It is powered by a 4.2-litre inline-six, delivering power to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission.
First registered in January 1969, this example has been with the seller and the fifth owner since December 2022.
A recent partial bare-metal respray was carried out in 2025, and the car benefits from a replacement convertible roof and a previous interior re-trim.
The odometer indicates 98,327 miles, which the seller believes to be accurate, though this is not warranted.
EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES
This E-Type Series 2 4.2 Roadster is finished in a bold shade of red with a black soft-top roof, over a black leather-trimmed interior, featuring chrome trim highlights.
It rides on a set of 15-inch cross-spoke wire wheels shod in mixed tyres.
Equipment includes a wood-rimmed Moto Lita steering wheel, heater and ventilation controls, Smiths gauges, a cassette stereo, an analogue clock, and dashboard toggle switches.
This example has been enhanced with Pioneer cabin speakers.
It is accompanied by a Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate and extensive paperwork, with documented service history and maintenance invoices spanning several decades.
CONDITION
Specific notes from the seller include: a partial bare-metal respray was carried out in 2025, the interior is understood to have been retrimmed at some point in the past, and there are now some signs of age-related wear in the cabin.
The soft-top roof was replaced some years ago.
The most recent MOT test was on 24 February 2025 at an indicated 98,230 miles, which resulted in a first-time pass with no advisories.
SERVICE HISTORY
This E-Type’s most recent routine maintenance was carried out in January 2023 at an indicated 98,018 miles, which included a general service.
Previous services were conducted in 2019 at an indicated 97,715 miles, and in 2021 at an indicated 97,735 miles.
