Jaguar - E-Type Cabrio V12 - 1974
HIGHLIGHTS:
• Elegant Jaguar E-Type Convertible V12 from model year 1974
• Manual transmission and V12 engine
• Classic Data valuation
• German registration documents including H-plate (historic registration)
HISTORY/OVERVIEW:
The Jaguar E-Type Series 3 V12 is one of the most iconic British roadster models of the 1970s, combining timeless design with the imposing performance of a twelve-cylinder engine. This vehicle was originally delivered to the UK and has been in Germany for many years. The previous owner used the roadster as a pure summer car for at least 10 to 15 years before the current owner acquired the car from his circle of acquaintances.
BODY/PAINT:
The body is in well-kept and very appealing condition. According to the provided information, the car was repainted about 20 years ago and today shows minor, age-related signs of use. The underbody is reportedly in good condition; no rust perforations are known. The mounted tires date from 2016 and still have good tread.
INTERIOR:
The black leather upholstery shows a slight, age-related patina. The carpets and footwells show minor visible signs of wear.
TECHNICAL:
The vehicle has been regularly serviced for many years at a specialist workshop for British cars; the last documented service was in 2025. The manual transmission shifts flawlessly and no further technical defects are known. A technical feature is an automatic auxiliary cooler fan, which contributes to improved heat management of the V12 engine.
DOCUMENTS:
The vehicle is delivered with German registration documents and an H-plate. A Classic Data valuation from 2019 confirms a condition grade of 2- with an indicated replacement value of €105,000. In addition, there are some maintenance invoices.
The vehicle can be viewed and picked up in Germany. It is recommended to view the vehicle before submitting a bid. Transport costs, ownership transfer, and any export documents/COC are to be borne by the buyer.
