    This well sorted example has just enjoyed extensive recommission work during 2015, which involved attention to many areas of the car, supported by a sheaf of invoices to support the work completed. Supplied with a UK V5 and heritage certificate, and described as being in good condition in all respects, this lovely Roadster offers a very affordable way to enjoy E-type motoring.

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
