The seller offers for sale this 1974 Jaguar E-Type Series 3 cabriolet, finished in Bordeaux with a black leather interior, powered by a 5.3-litre V12 petrol engine and paired with an automatic transmission. This classic has been carefully maintained over the years and is accompanied by a detailed file of invoices. The car was repainted in 2021 with accompanying bodywork repairs, and major servicing was carried out from 2020 to 2024, including carburettor revisions, ignition and starter replacements, suspension work, fluids, gaskets, belts, direction components and fan repairs. A new soft top was fitted in 2024, and the interior leather remains in attractive condition, with the steering wheel needing a small recolour. The engine starts easily, runs without smoke or noises and the gearbox shifts smoothly. A carburettor adjustment is advised, but the car drives well. No visible rust, accident history or structural defects are reported. This car holds a valid technical inspection and is ready to drive.
The Series 3 E-Type marked the final evolution of Jaguar’s legendary sports car. With its refined V12 engine, improved cooling and stronger braking, it offered smoother touring capability while preserving the unmistakable E-Type silhouette. The long-wheelbase convertible provides generous cabin space and a comfortable driving position, making it popular among collectors seeking elegance with usability. Appreciated for its grand-touring character, distinct styling and historical significance, the V12 E-Type remains a desirable classic in the global market. Well-maintained examples with extensive recent work, such as this one, offer reassurance and driving pleasure for enthusiasts.
