Description
1972 Jaguar E Type V12 2+2 Automatic
Vin Number: 1S51446BW
Registration Number: FKC1L
Simply immaculate; THis Jaguar was the subject of a nut & bolt restoration since when it has been very sparingly used. Around £80,000 in restoration bills come with the car attesting to the level of detail gone into the project the Majority of which was done by Independent Jaguar Specialists Derek Watson. This in addition to the £40k cost of the car to start with. The Brief by the previous owner was to source a good solid low mile car & make it like new; a goal that has been achieved to perfection.
The car is finished in beautiful Cotswold blue paintwork; a colour that really suits the car. To the interior is dark blue leather thoughout. A set of brand new wire wheels are installed with knock off hubs. A modern Apple play Hifi System has been installed along with a curved pair of high end Bose speakers unobtrusively fitted to the rear & looking as if they were a factory fitted item.
Some other thoughful minor modifications have been done to the car such as uprated suspension bushes & installation of power electric windows. The body had a full Waxoyl treatment during restoration with all cavities injected & sprayed for long term corrosion proofing. The radiator has been recored & literally everything attneded to that needed to be attended to. Koni Shock absorbers are fitted all round. An exhaustive list of the works done comes with the car.
The car has just arrived & is having a full major service including an engine tune of the already silky smooth V12 unit & also a change of brake fulid & master cylinder seals etc along with all other fluids.
The car is simply a pleasure to drive & makes you relaise how special these cars were when new. This is a car ready to be either driven or shown, gaining admiring glances wherever it appears. We are selling it for a fraction of the money invested in it.
