Auction description:

The Classic Sale at the Practical Classics Classic Car and Restoration Show 2025

JAGUAR E TYPE S3

Registration Number TEH 999L

MOT Expiry Exempt

Chassis Number 1S51550

Engine Number 7S.9061-SB

Transmission Manual

Body Colour Black

Series 3 V12 2+2 FHC in triple black, an older restoration but lightly used in previous long-term ownership and now in need of recommissioning.

Designed to showcase the new smooth and torquey 5.3-litre engine, originally developed for Le Mans, the Series 3 cars were available as a Roadster or a 2+2 Coupé

UK-supplied in 1972, this example is finished in Jaguar Black with a full-length Webasto sunroof over a black leather interior with black carpets

We understand that it underwent a full bare-metal restoration by R.N. Upton in Tamworth during 1988 and they have maintained it for much of its life

It was purchased by its previous owner from his accountant in 1973, where it remained until his passing last year with little to no use and consequently is now in need of recommissioning

The Cherished Registration illustrated, PDD 12, does not form part of the sale
