The Jaguar E-Type was seen by Enzo Ferrari as the most beautiful car ever when it was shown at the Geneva Motor Show. The E-Type was originally designed as a 2 seater GT coupe and the convertible version as a two seater GT Convertible. The first half year mainly left-hand drive cars were produced, this was because the car was very popular in America, after half a year the right-hand drive cars were taken into production for the British themselves.
This E-Type is a car of the first series called Series 1, the series 1 was equipped with a 3.6 liter 6-in-line engine that was later upgraded in 1964 to a 4.2 liter 6-in-line engine.
All E-Types were equipped with independent suspension and disc brakes with power brakes on all four wheels, which was unique for the time. There is a significant difference in the type with the 3.8 liter engine and the 4.2 liter engine, the 3.8 liter version had leather upholstered bucket seats and an aluminum central instrument panel. The 4.2 liter version, on the other hand, had more comfortable seats, improved brakes and electronics.
This Jaguar E-Type is a car with a true history, this car has driven many races such as the Oldtimer Granprix Nürburgring, Coppa Intereuropa Monza and much more. The car has a full history and has always been maintained at the official Jaguar dealer "Munsterhuis" in the Netherlands. This car is completely prepared for FIA GTS 10 standard. The car was originally prepared for World Sportscar Championship GT Cars. At the time, it was a rival to the Ferrari 250 GTO, among others. This car was modified by German tuner Brosch to a 4325cc 6-in-line engine with 3 carburettors.
In addition to the rich history, there are a lot of spare parts that are included with this car, such as a boot lid, clutch, switches, brake calipers, etc.
