Sellers description:
1970 Jaguar 4.2 Litre 'E' Type Series 2 Roadster. This is a 1 Owner vehicle purchased new in 1970 and comes complete with the original Operating, Maintenance and Service Handbook, including Wiring Schematics and Routine Maintenance Diagrams! With only 48,000 original miles, this vehicle was barely driven over it's 36 year lifespan. Many of the original servicing records are still available.

In 1992, this Jaguar went thru an extensive and complete 'off-the-frame' restoration. The car was stripped down to the bare metal and all rust was sandblasted and acid treated before the primer was applied. The vehicle was comprehensively tested for mechanical integrity and then disassembled and totally refinished and refurbished. The exterior paint was done in an Eggshell White and the interior recreated in a Cashmere Connoly Leather. The carpeting is a matching wool and the soft top a complimentary hue.

You will get what you expect from the Jaguar name....this vehicle is in pristine condition and will live up to it's reputation for elegance, aesthetics and performance!
