Equipment
Centerlock wire wheels, Coker Classic red line tires, dual mirrors, woodrim steering wheel, dark blue cloth boot cover, wood shift knob, AM/FM pushbutton radio.
Condition
The chrome trim running down behind the headlight stops just a cm short of the right headlight but otherwise the paint, chrome, interior and engine bay are excellent. Slightly irregular trunk and door fit. A fresh car with high quality work other than some small oversights.
Market commentary
This Jag's condition is better than the sale price suggests, but the value difference between condition grades on E-types are as wide as on any car. These are expensive restorations and small details that are left unattended leave bidders wondering. The current fashion is for Flat Floor E-types, even though the later 4.2 liter examples have the same covered headlight appeal and much better comfort and driveability.
