Low-mileage, highly original Series 1 Jaguar E-type

This Series 1 Jaguar E-type remains highly original and only has 31,312 miles on the odometer.

The seller says it has “never been modified in any way” since it was taken off the road in the early ’70s. The Jaguar still wears its original Opalescent Dark Blue over light blue upholstery.

The E-type retains its original engine, which was restarted two years ago, as well as its original gearbox, doors and hardtop. A French collector purchased it several years ago to preserve it and now the Jaguar awaits the right person to recommission it.

Find this 1963 Jaguar Type E Roadster 3.8 up for auction at Aguttes, with an estimated value of €80,000-€100,000 (approximately $90,000-$110,000 USD).

Mine is a later S1 Coupe with just under 31k miles and also in dark blue over dark blue interior, but was fortunately kept in way better condition than this one. Her first owner until the end of 2006 was a jeweler who obviously babied her and only brought her out of his heated under-house garage when it was nice outside. Lucky me!
