Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Body color wire wheels, rear spare, folding windshield with dual aeroscreens, Lucas P100 headlights. Originally bodied with a drophead coupe by Avon, apparently fitted with this period build body during restoration. Engine is correct type 3 1 2 liter but not original to this chassis. Professionally restored to like new condition and now showing some age but little if any use. An excellent example. Bernie Ecclestone Collection.

Market commentary

Bought here in London for an appropriate price for its rarity, condition and the instant visceral appeal of Sir William Lyons Jaguar design and performance. These are wonderful automobiles, beautifully designed and have always been great values for the money, exactly as Lyons intended.
