The seller offers for sale this 1973 Jaguar E-Type Series 3 Coupé, powered by a 5.3-liter V12 petrol engine paired with an automatic transmission. This example is a US specification model with left-hand drive, and with power steering and disc brakes. According to the seller, the engine runs well and the gearbox shifts smoothly. Several maintenance items have recently been addressed, including renewed brake cylinders and brake pads at the front and rear, replacement brake hoses, a new distributor cap, renewed spark plugs and new ignition cables, as well as a renewed master brake cylinder. The front seats have been reupholstered in leather in the original colour, maintaining the classic interior atmosphere associated with the E-Type.
The current documented mileage is 120.000 km and it holds a valid technical inspection.
The Jaguar E-Type Series 3 was introduced in 1971 and represented the final evolution of one of the most famous sports cars ever produced. While retaining the unmistakable E-Type silhouette, the Series 3 featured a wider body, improved braking system and Jaguar’s newly developed 5.3-liter V12 engine. This powerful engine delivered smooth performance and strong torque, transforming the E-Type into a refined grand touring car capable of comfortable long-distance driving. The model maintained the combination of striking design, performance and prestige that had made the E-Type world famous since its introduction in 1961. Today the Series 3 V12 models are appreciated by enthusiasts for their distinctive character, smooth power delivery and important place in Jaguar’s sports car history.
