Our customer offers for sale this 1965 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 Coupe, an iconic British sports car equipped with a 4.2-liter six-cylinder engine and manual transmission. Originally built for the US market, this matching-numbers E-Type has been repainted in its original color in the past. The car is currently located in Poland and comes with EU registration documents. Known for its design and performance, the E-Type remains one of the most beloved classic cars in history. This car has a well-preserved interior, with only minimal wear and has been updated to a non-original color.
The paintwork has been restored to its original factory color and has some small signs of usage. The blue interior has some wear, but overall, it remains in good condition.
The Jaguar E-Type, known as the Jaguar XK-E in North America, was introduced in 1961 and became an instant sensation. Designed by Malcolm Sayer, the E-Type combined stunning looks with cutting-edge technology, including a monocoque construction, independent suspension, and disc brakes on all four wheels. The 4.2L engine was introduced in 1964, providing more torque and making the car more comfortable for longer drives. Enzo Ferrari himself famously called the E-Type “the most beautiful car ever made,” a statement echoed by many to this day. The Series I E-Type, like this 1965 model, is particularly sought after for its covered headlights, smooth body lines, and raw driving experience.
