On customer request we offer this very nice 1966 Jaguar E-type series 1 OTS in the colour combination of red paint with black interior.

The car is a great driver with excellent mechanics and beautiful interior trim. This E-type has extensive documentation from all service and repairs over the past years and comes with many pictures.

This E-type was built on the 16th of May 1966 in Carmen Red with Black interior trim and Black soft top. On the 21st of June the car was despatched through Jaguar Cars Limited as a Personal Export Delivery, via Navy Auto Sales to its first owner, R D Arthur, Riverside California, USA. At that time the car carried the registration number HRW 190D that was issued in Coventry.

During 1993 Eric Charles Denton from La Costa, California registered the car with Californian registration number 3FIW270. In 1997 the car was bought by a Dutch gentleman and imported into the Netherlands. In 2012 the car was sold through our company to its current Swedish owner who now asked us to sell his car again.

The car benefits from many useful upgrades like modern electric cooling fan, new wider chrome wire wheels with new Michelin tires and a stainless steel exhaust. Another nice feature is the Retro Becker Mexico radio including navigation system and electric operated antenna. The car is in overall very good condition and extremely well presented. The engine has recently been professionally rebuid with the clutch replaced.

Comes with a Heritage Certificate.
