1973 Jaguar E-Type Series III Roadster
1973 Jaguar E-Type Series III Roadster
The Jaguar E-Type Series III Roadster, introduced in 1971, is an iconic British sportscar that represents the pinnacle of Jaguar's engineering and design. Featuring a sleek, aerodynamic body, it retained the classic E-Type aesthetic while incorporating several modern enhancements. The Series III is distinguished by its longer wheelbase and wider stance, which not only improved stability but also enhanced passenger comfort. The Series III is powered by a robust 5.3 litre V12 engine, delivering impressive performance and a smooth driving experience. This engine provided exhilarating acceleration and a top speed of around 150mph. The Roadster configuration, with its convertible top, allows for an exhilarating open-air driving experience, making it ideal for enthusiasts who appreciate the sound and feel of the powerful V12 engine. Inside, the E-Type Series III offers a mix of luxury and simplicity, with high-quality materials and a driver-focused cockpit.
This original right hand drive 1973 Jaguar E-Type Series III Roadster with an automatic gearbox was supplied new by Henleys in London. We believe it was shipped overseas and didn't return to the UK until 1991 when it was registered with the DVLA. The car underwent a complete restoration at that time changing the colour from blue to British Racing Green, replacing the interior with biscuit leather and fitting a manual gearbox. Purchased by the current owner in 2005, who during in his ownership has fitted a Nardi steering wheel, new chrome wire wheels with new tyres, a new exhaust system and a new green Mohair soft top roof. To look at the car it is hard to believe that the restoration was done over thirty years ago, it looks as fresh as it did when it was first done. This Jaguar E-Type is supplied with a V5 registration document and a file of paperwork going back to 1991. An attractive purchase for any collector. Consigned by John Tomlin
