Description
1965 JAGUAR TYPE E 4.2L
Vehicle registration document: French
Chassis number: 1E31674
• Elegant colour scheme: Opalescent Silver Blue exterior paired with a beige interior
• 4.2-litre engine mated to a fully synchronised four-speed Jaguar gearbox
• Bonnet replaced in 2018 (invoice for €10,000)
• Technical upgrades: aluminium four-piston brake calipers, aviation-grade brake hoses and adjustable shock absorbers
Unveiled at the 1961 Geneva Motor Show, the Jaguar E-Type stood out for its advanced design, combining a monocoque body, independent rear suspension and four disc brakes. In 1964, Jaguar updated the model with the introduction of a 4.2-litre six-cylinder engine. This upgrade delivered greater torque and was accompanied by the introduction of a fully synchronised four-speed gearbox, enhancing driving pleasure.
The car on offer is a Fixed Head Coupé (FHC), first registered in 1965. It is finished in an elegant Opalescent Silver Blue, paired with a beige interior. The car comes with a file of maintenance invoices.
As regards the bodywork, the bonnet was replaced in 2018, a repair documented by an invoice for €10,000. The exterior paintwork shows a few localised cosmetic imperfections. Inside, the dashboard trim has been refitted with black vinyl, in keeping with the original specification.
This example also benefits from several technical upgrades to the braking and suspension systems. In particular, it is fitted with aluminium four-piston front brake calipers, reinforced aviation-grade brake hoses and adjustable shock absorbers.
Combining the 4.2-litre six-cylinder engine with a fully synchronised gearbox, this 1965 Jaguar E-Type FHC captivates with its elegant Opalescent Silver Blue livery and its technical upgrades, which complement the intrinsic qualities of this great British motoring classic.
