Park Place Ltd is pleased to present this 1974 Jaguar XKE V12
Roadster. An absolutely gorgeous piece of automotive artwork, this
Series III OTS is impeccably finished in classic Pale Primrose
Yellow with Black Softtop over a fabulous interior that's tailored
in Black colored hides. A stunningly beautiful Jaguar. The odometer
shows 49,078 miles (believed correct and original). Under the
forward-tilting hood of this iconic British roadster lies a
powerful 5.3-Litre engine, in the desired V12 configuration, that's
backed by a proper 4-speed manual gearbox. The V12 engine purrs as
it should, with a sonorous snarl when throttle is applied, and is
bejeweled with quadruple Stromburg carburettors with exhaust
exiting through a stainless exhaust. This Jaguar rolls on chromed
Wire Wheels. Owner's Manual, Tools, Hammer. Widely regarded as
being one of the most beautiful cars ever designed, this classic is
in fantastic condition inside and out. Coveted by collectors, this
car is a rare chance to acquire an automotive icon that can be
appreciated for years to come. An absolute Blue-Chip collectible
that can be driven, shown and admired for years to come, this
E-Type will be a fabulous addition to any collection.A gorgeous XKE
in fabulous colors, this Jaguar presents extremely well and is sure
to please even the most discerning eye. Expertly finished body and
paint, with chrome knockoff wire wheels, beautifully fitted leather
interior and excellent carpeting, and black soft top. The paint
work is extremely high quality, and the panels are extremely
straight. The chrome is excellent, the wire wheels are stunning,
and the glass is in superb shape as well. The engine compartment
has been finely detailed and is impeccable. This '74 XKE is in show
condition throughout, and very correct in terms of finishes and
appearance. This Jag roadster is ready for spirited use, or a
casual Sunday drive.Any Jaguar XKE roadster is a rare sight,
indeed. Finding an outstanding example like this one may never come
again. Don't miss this tremendous investment opportunity, as any
example of these rare and highly desirable classic Jaguars are far
and few between, but locating one with only 49k miles from new and
in this car's outstanding condition is exceedingly difficult.

at the Geneva Motor Show in 1961, none other than Enzo Ferrari
remarked that the E-type (known as the "XKE" in the U.S.) was the
most beautiful car he'd ever seen. Mr. Ferrari knew a pretty car
when he saw one and he might have been one of the first to express
the sentiment, but an incalculable number of others have said
virtually the same thing and they're still saying it fifty years
later. Designed by a noted aerodynamicist Malcolm Sayer, the E-type
was meant to cheat the wind, but its glass covered headlights, long
hood, short rear deck and compound curves also coincidentally
looked great. With a 0-60 time of around seven seconds and a 150
mph top speed, the Series I E-type was near the top of the early
1960s food chain. A 2+2 coupe was added to the coupe and
convertible body styles in 1966. The 2+2 was the first E-type to be
available with an automatic transmission.This sensational Jaguar
has undergone an intensive pre-sale inspection by renowned Jaguar
expert 'Jag John' at the Park Place Service Center. For more
