Lot 220: Jaguar E-Type S2 FHC

The 2 seat, fixed head coupe was always the prettiest of the E-Types. Purists will unswervingly stand behind the Series One but there is no denying that the Series Two was more comfortable, had better brakes and had lights that actually illuminated the road ahead. The changes made to the evolving E-Type were mainly safety driven and predominately from the American market. Offered here is a S2 FHC, which was originally supplied in the USA and repatriated to the UK in 1985. Since the car has been in the UK it has had only two previous owners and has benefited from professional conversion to RHD, interior retrim, replacement, UK Specification, differential and recent cosmetic attention to keep it in tip top condition. Described as being in good overall condition, the car is said to have provided the vendor with reliable and economical classic transport during his 10 year ownership. Finished in the, quite rare, opalescent silver grey metallic with contrasting red leather interior, this very attractive E-Type offers outstanding value.
