Market commentary
Among Jaguar E types, the 4.2 Liter Series I cars are perhaps the best balance of aesthetics and driving pleasure. They may not draw the same prices as the early flat floor cars, but they do have the larger engines torque, a synchromesh gearbox, more comfortable seats and retain the covered headlamps that help make Malcom Sayers brilliant design so pleasing and effective. This is a reasonable bid for a quality restored example.
