Seller's comments

Few cars stir the soul quite like a V12 E-Type, and this 1973 Jaguar E-Type Series 3 Roadster is a standout example in every sense. Finished in a deep, elegant Dark blue and paired with a beautifully contrasting red leather interior, this car captures the glamour and drama that made the E-Type an icon from the moment it was unveiled.This example has undergone a full restoration by renowned Jaguar specialist Don Steenkamp a few years back , with attention paid not just to visual perfection, but to mechanical integrity and authenticity. The result is a roadster that feels cohesive, correct, and confidence-inspiring — whether admired at rest or driven as intended.The legendary 5.3-litre V12 is mated to a manual gearbox, delivering the smooth, turbine-like power delivery that defines the Series 3, combined with genuine driver engagement. It is a grand tourer in the truest sense: refined, muscular, and effortlessly fast.Adding further desirability is the factory hardtop, a rare and valuable option that enhances both usability and collectability. The car is also accompanied by its manual and toolkit, underscoring the completeness and care with which it has been preserved.This is not simply a restored E-Type — it is a properly sorted, beautifully presented example of one of the most celebrated sports cars ever built. A car equally at home in a serious collection, on concours lawns, or stretching its legs on an open road.Available from Driven Cars and Classics.
