Offered for sale is an outstanding Jaguar Cars E-Type Series 1 3.8, presented in a striking and elegant blue over blue colour combination.

This example is matching numbers throughout (engine, original gearbox, and chassis) — a critical foundation for authenticity, collectability, and long-term value.

The restoration was carried out between 2011 and 2017, largely by its owner and executed to an exceptional standard. Rather than a conventional rebuild, this was a surgical-level restoration, performed with remarkable precision and discipline by a trained orthodontist and stomatologist, whose professional mindset is clearly reflected in the attention to detail throughout the car.

Where specialist skills, equipment, or tooling were required, recognised experts were engaged to ensure every aspect was completed correctly and under close supervision.

The entire process is comprehensively documented with hundreds of photographs, covering each stage of the work. All specifications and details have been independently discussed and verified directly with the owner and are fully supported by documentation and imagery.

Since completion, the car has been regularly driven by the current owner and has covered more than 8,000 kilometres, proving itself as a dependable and highly enjoyable driver. This is not a static showpiece but a properly exercised and refined E-Type with demonstrated long-term road reliability.

Thoughtful & Reversible Upgrades

To enhance usability while preserving originality, the car benefits from carefully considered improvements, including:

• Full synchromesh gearbox from a 4.2 E-Type (original matching-numbers 3.8 gearbox included with the car and supplied separately)

• Spin-on oil filter conversion

• Discreet fuel pump cut-off switch

• Hidden battery isolation switch

• Quick-release steering wheel hub

• Automatic 3-point seat belts

• USB charging port integrated in the glove box

• Additional removable glove box insert

• Original Metallifacture lifting jack

• Further subtle refinements throughout

Where applicable, original components have been retained, underlining the car’s authenticity and reversibility.

This is the ideal E-Type for an enthusiast who wishes to enjoy the upcoming season without sorting work or hidden surprises. The car is turn-key, properly set up, and confidence-inspiring.
