16-Year Single-Specialist Pedigree: 1970 Jaguar XKE Series 2 FHC in
Original Willow Green
Presenting a beautifully sorted, turn-key 1970 Jaguar XKE Series 2
Fixed Head Coupe. This stunning example is finished in its highly
desirable, rare factory-correct shade of Willow Green, paired with
a matching green leather interior. Powered by its iconic 4.2-liter
dual-overhead-cam straight-six, this E-Type is the ultimate
expression of standard-setting care, boasting an incredible
single-shop service pedigree from 2011 through 2026 with the marque
experts at Donovan Motorcar.
? An Unprecedented $186k+ Documentation File
This vehicle represents a true "blank check" approach to vintage
grand touring ownership. Accompanying the sale is a meticulous
binder of continuous service records dating back 16 years, totaling
an astonishing $186,819.47 spent exclusively at Donovan Motorcar to
preserve, restore, and upgrade this XKE to an exceptional
mechanical standard. Every single system has been systematically
addressed, leaving zero deferred maintenance for its next
custodian.
? Comprehensive Restoration & Maintenance Highlights:
• Engine & Drivetrain: Highly sorted 4.2L engine featuring upgraded
high-temperature painted original exhaust manifolds, a new head
gasket, electronic ignition, an electronic fuel pump, a spin-on oil
filter conversion, and a complete clutch assembly replacement (with
transmission re-sealing).
• Modernized Air Conditioning: In late 2023, a brand-new RetroAir
A/C system was professionally custom-fitted by Donovan, replacing
the compressor, condenser, evaporator, and all hoses. It blows
ice-cold and works perfectly, making it an incredibly comfortable
summer cruiser.
• Suspension & Steering: Massively overhauled ride height with
custom-reset torsion bars, new front/rear shocks and springs, and a
complete replacement of front/rear suspension wheel bearings,
bushings, and mounts.
• Braking System: Rebuilt to a high level, featuring front and rear
brake calipers with upgraded stainless steel pistons, a stainless
steel sleeved and rebuilt master cylinder/servo unit, and a freshly
serviced master cylinder rebuilt in mid-2026.
• Cosmetics & Glass: Beautifully presentable body and interior
restoration originally handled by Donovan. It recently benefited
from over $15,000 in professional body refresh paintwork,
door/window frame adjustments, and full bumper alignment to ensure
it shows wonderfully today.
? Condition & Drivability
Showing 65,687 miles on the odometer, the car runs and drives
flawlessly. It starts eagerly on the button, settles into a smooth
idle, pulls with effortless straight-six torque, and shifts
cleanly. The steering tracks laser-straight, and the upgraded
brakes stop with modern confidence.
Vintage Jaguars are notoriously difficult to find in truly
"no-excuses" mechanical condition. Thanks to more than a decade and
a half of specialist care, this unique Willow Green coupe is
entirely turn-key and ready to be driven, toured, or proudly
displayed. Included in the sale is the full stack of Donovan
Motorcar receipts totaling $186k+, original tools, keys, and clean
documentation.
