Car has a buy it now price of $85,000 for 3 days. 54k miles.
Sellers description:
Recently acquired, our 1973 Series 3 E-Type Roadster comes to us by way of it's third owner who meticulously maintained and cared for this beautiful V12 Roadster. Originally owned by a couple in Minnesota, this E-Type was sold to the next owner in Missouri before lastly coming back to Minnesota where we noticed it at the 10,000 Lakes Concours d'Elegance.
With a comprehensive list of maintenance and service records spanning years, this Roadster is as clean under the hood as it is admiring the Carmen Red repaint from 10 years ago. Originally Regency Red, the paint and brightwork shows incredibly well. The interior is just as clean and it drives out as great as it looks. This E-Type still pulls strong and idles as it should.
Looking for the perfect Jaguar Roadster to own and drive rather than restoring? You've found it.

This 1973 Jaguar E-Type Series III roadster is finished in red over Biscuit leather upholstery and is powered by a 5.3-liter V12 paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Equipment includes a tan soft top, a tan boot cover, 15″ wire wheels, four-wheel disc brakes, power steering, quadruple SU carburetors, and an Alpine AM/FM cassette stereo. The car is said to have been refurbished under previous ownership and was acquired by the current owner in 2015. This Series III E-Type is now offered on dealer consignment in Arizona with a Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate and a clean Montana title.
The car was finished from the factory in Regency Red and is said to have been repainted under prior ownership. Features include a tan soft top with a color-matching boot cover, a louvered hood, a driver’s side mirror, V12 badging, chrome bumpers with overriders, and dual polished exhaust outlets.
Chrome-finished 15″ wire wheels are mounted with 205/70 American Classic whitewall tires. The car is equipped with power steering, and stopping power is provided by four-wheel disc brakes.
The interior features bucket seats upholstered in Biscuit leather along with color-coordinated door panels and carpets. Rubberized Jaguar-branded floor mats line the footwells, and appointments include a heater, a locking glovebox, three-point seatbelts, a fire extinguisher, and an aftermarket Alpine AM/FM cassette stereo.
The leather-wrapped steering wheel sits ahead of Smiths instrumentation consisting of a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 6,500-rpm redline. An analog clock along with auxiliary gauges for voltage, coolant temperature, oil pressure, and fuel level are mounted in the center stack. The five-digit mechanical odometer shows 57k miles, approximately 1,500 of which were added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.
The 5.3-liter V12 features quadruple SU side-draft carburetors and sends power to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission.
The Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate lists a manufacture date of May 25, 1973, as well as factory colors and serial numbers.
