Serial number 890835 Nice condition Important invoice file Genuine 3rd hand French collector's registration This car is no longer in the limelight as it became an automotive myth and is now a must-have in any important collection. It is the all-rounder of the sports cars of its time. Its success lies in a few secrets that have helped make the Jaguar E-Type what it is today. First of all, it is accessible. Indeed, when it came out in 1961, the new car from the cat company broke records compared to the big sports brands like Ferrari or Aston Martin, which were only accessible to an elite. The "E" is also beautiful, its bodywork is as elegant as an evening gown, all the colours of Jaguar's colour chart suit it perfectly and the model remains aesthetically very affiliated to the "D" with its endless bonnet and its feline posture ready to pounce. It is also very innovative in terms of mechanics and comfort, its suspensions will still be used for the XJS jaguars at the dawn of the 1980s, its handling was largely above its competitors. Mechanically, the first series benefited from the 3.8L engine and 240 horsepower for 1275 kg on the scale, in direct competition with the Aston Martin DB4 and 164 its 1240 kg of equal power but not at the same price. Elegance, comfort, luxury, power, there was no shortage of adjectives to describe Jaguar's new baby at the time and today, 60 years after the release of the first series, it still turns heads.
