Description

This 1972 Jaguar E-Type Series II Roadster captures the classic open-top touring spirit with a refined 4.2-litre engine and manual five-speed gearbox. The driving experience is engaging and analogue: brisk throttle response, a characterful exhaust note and direct steering make winding B-roads a true pleasure, while the low-slung seating and balanced chassis reward spirited driving.

Beyond its dynamic appeal the car is surprisingly usable for vintage touring, benefitting from a high-quality restoration, full leather interior and durable underbody protection. The Indigo Blue finish, chrome wire wheels and black mohair hood give it timeless presence, and the comprehensive restoration documentation offers confidence to buyers seeking a well-cared-for classic.
