1965 Jaguar E-Type FHC

If you purchase a vehicle in a different country to your own, it may be subject to local duties, sales taxes, or environmental levies when imported. You may find this introductory guide helpful, and our team is also here to help. However, you must investigate any duties or taxes that may be due on top of the purchase price before committing to buy. KEY FACTS This Jaguar E-Type Series 1 4.2 FHC is an iconic and highly desirable classic, benefitting from a full rotisserie restoration. It is powered by a 4.2-litre naturally aspirated inline-six, driving the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission. First registered in 1965, this example was previously registered in the US and is now registered in Germany. The seller states that they purchased the car in 2009. The odometer indicates 52,719 miles, though this is not warranted. The seller states that the car has covered circa 3,500 miles since the completion of the restoration. This is a matching-numbers example, confirmed by its Heritage Certificate. EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES This E-Type is finished in Gunmetal Grey metallic, complemented by a black leather-trimmed interior featuring classic bucket seats and an early 3.8-litre aluminium dashboard. It rides on a set of 15-inch chrome cross-spoke wire wheels with two-spoke knock-offs, fitted with Vredestein Sprint Classic tyres. Equipment now includes an oil cooler with a spin-on oil filter and thermostat, a reinforced front anti-roll bar, a 2.88:1 power-lock differential, reinforced front and rear brakes, a 123 electronic ignition system, a Bell Big Bore exhaust system (manifold and exhaust), tinted windows, and a push-button radio. Accompanied by a large collection of historical documents, restoration documentation including photographs and invoices, and inspection reports, as well as a Heritage Certificate, a copy of a US certificate of title, a valuation report, and two sets of keys.
