1970 Jaguar E-Type XKE, The Jaguar E-Type is a British sports
car that was manufactured from 1961 through 1975. Its combination of good
looks, high performance and competitive pricing established the marque as an
icon of 1960's motoring. On its release, Enzo Ferrari called it “The most
beautiful car ever made”. The New York City Museum of Modern Art recognized it
in 1996 by adding a blue roadster to its permanent design collection, one of
only six autos to receive the distinction. In March 2008, The Daily Telegraph
ranked the E-Type one of the “100 most beautiful cars” of all time.
This original roadster is
in mint condition with no rust, no electrical issues and it runs beautifully.
It is painted in Regency red with a new black leather interior, soft top and
boot; and equipped with factory spoke wheels and redline tires. The car sports
a 4.2 liter, 265 hp. inline 6 cylinder engine with 283 ft. lbs. of torque.
Attached is an iron block aluminum head with 2 overhead camshafts and two, 2-barrel carburetors; driven by a 4-speed manual transmission. Power steering, fully independent suspension and Dunlop disc brakes add to the ease of its
driving experience. The undercarriage has been undercoated and shows no rust. Only 3, 477 Model 1970 roadsters were sold. This beautiful
collector car, with 38, 500 miles, has always been stored inside and was
recently detailed to perfection. Prices have been rising rapidly on E-types and
this Series 2 is less than one half the price of the earlier Series 1.
