Description
This beautifully restored 1969 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 Roadster stands as one of the most iconic and revered classic sports cars ever produced, a true masterpiece of British automotive engineering and design. Finished in the quintessential British Racing Green, the exterior radiates both elegance and performance, embodying the spirit of the open road. The classic green paint pairs impeccably with the rich, supple tan leather interior, offering a striking contrast that enhances the overall luxurious feel of the car. Under the long, sweeping bonnet lies the renowned 4.2-litre inline-six engine, delivering a potent blend of power and refinement. The E-Type’s 4-speed manual transmission ensures an engaging and rewarding driving experience, allowing enthusiasts to truly feel connected to the car. With 265 horsepower at your command, this Roadster achieves brisk acceleration, delivering a top speed of 150 mph, a figure that cemented its status as one of the fastest cars of its time. The car’s iconic bodywork, often described as “sculptural,” features the long nose, low stance, and fluid lines that have made the E-Type a design legend. The chrome wire wheels, slender chrome bumpers, and signature headlight design give the car an air of both sophistication and aggression, while the sweeping convertible roof makes it ideal for top-down driving on scenic roads. The interior is just as exquisite, with beautifully upholstered tan leather seats that cradle you in comfort while you take in the roar of the engine. The wood-rimmed steering wheel, chrome accents, and classic analog gauges all hark back to a golden era of motoring, blending nostalgia with driving excitement. As a Series II E-Type, this model also benefits from improved cooling and brakes, making it more reliable and easier to drive without sacrificing the car’s legendary character. Whether you’re looking to add a showpiece to your collection or simply experience one of the greatest sports cars ever built, this 1969 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 Roadster delivers on every front. This is more than just a car – it’s a symbol of timeless beauty, unparalleled craftsmanship, and exhilarating performance, ready to turn heads wherever it goes.
