Jaguar introduced the E-Type at the Geneva International Motor Show in March of 1961. The E-Type was described by Enzo Ferrari as 'the most beautiful car ever made' and one example even lives in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. Jaguar drove one of their press demonstrators over 600 miles from their factory in Coventry to Geneva, arriving just in time for the car's unveiling.
The Series III E-Type was released in 1971 with its brand new 12-cylinder engine. It had a large increase in power and torque over the earlier straight-six E-Types. Exterior changes consisted of flared wheel arches to fit the new suspension and wider track, along with a cross-slated front grille. The E-Type Series III came in two body-styles, the 2+2 coupe and the roadster. No longer was the two-seater coupe available.
This Roadster is finished in Sable exterior and Biscuit interior and rides on wire wheels. In 2012, the car was given a thorough restoration, which included a new top, suspension, carburetors, brakes, radiator, and completely rebuilding the engine.
The 5343cc dual overhead camshaft V12 engine delivers 285 horsepower. There is a four-speed automatic transmission and four-wheel disc brakes.By Daniel Vaughan | Oct 2013
