Car to be at auction 9/14
classiccars.brightwells.com/viewdetails.php

Auction description:
Lot number 100
Estimate £28,000 - £30,000
Description Jaguar E-Type S3 V12 Coupe Manual
Registration LHB 213L
Year 1972
Colour Primrose Yellow
Engine size 5,343 cc
Chassis No. 1S51560
Engine No. 7S9168SB

This particular V12 is most unusual in that it has covered a mere 40,400 miles from new and has been in the current ownership for the last 36 years. As the accompanying Heritage Certificate confirms, it was built in November 1972 and sold via Henlys of Manchester in January the following year. Primrose Yellow with a black leather interior and a manual gearbox, it was originally registered WNC 313L and was acquired by the vendor in 1978 with around 30,000 miles on the clock.

Only used on high days and holidays these last four decades, it has been maintained regardless of cost getting a new Martin Robey bonnet in 1987 and being treated to a full engine and gearbox rebuild at XK Engineering in 1991 when the rest of the running gear was also overhauled at a cost of over £10,000 (invoices on file).

In generally good condition throughout, it is said to drive superbly and certainly went well and sounded sweet with a notably smooth ride on bumpy roads when we were treated to a lengthy test drive on the occasion of our visit. Supplied with the original owner's handbook, a workshop manual, parts catalogue and 18 old MOTs back to 1979 to warrant the mileage, it is taxed and MOTd until the end of July 2015 with no advisories recorded.

Only reluctantly being sold due to emigration, this fine old E-Type now just needs a caring new home where it can be looked after for the next few decades.

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?
