Vehicle Description
1965 JAGUAR E-TYPE ROADSTER for sale. Motorcar Classics is proud to
present this stunning 1965 Jaguar E-Type roadster featured in its
original color of Old English White with the nearly perfect
complement of tan leather interior and tan soft-top with matching
boot. This desirable roadster has benefited from a meticulous
restoration based on a solid original car. The car is accompanied
by a binder with before and after photos that illustrate the fine
level of preparation and final presentation with
photo-documentation of its high-quality restoration. The binder
includes ownership history from new, correspondence with prior
owners, and a JDHT Heritage Certificate. The car has less than
38,616 actual miles from new, with only 200 miles being driven
since its completion. The numbers all match and the components are
all original.Our Jaguar is a magnificent example of one of the most
sought-after versions of the E-Type with covered headlamps,
synchromesh gearbox, triple-SU carb 4.2L DOHC motor, period AM/FM
radio, wood-rim wheel and toggle switch dashboard. Of course,
chromed knock-off wire wheels were part of the package and our car
is fitted with tasteful wide whitewall tires that fit with the
period presentation. The interior has an almost aircraft-type feel
with Smiths instrumentation, numerous dashboard toggle switches,
wood-rimmed steering wheel with growler center cap and a period
AM/FM radio. The engine bay and undercarriage were present in a
manner consistent with the rest of the car. The underside and
wheelwells are all painted, with no undercoating. This fine E-Type
runs and drives well and offers the same thrill that XKEs were
known for when new. It is an investment-grade example.
