Sellers description:
The stunning Series I E-Type Roadster presented here is a unique car that is finished with a beautiful silver-violet exterior, a light dove grey leather interior and is complemented by a pale lavender convertible top. This example received a full frame-off restoration approximately five years ago and remains in absolutely stunning overall condition. Notably, the unique exterior paint is actually a Mercedes-Benz factory 300SL Roadster color silver-violet and is even more stunning in person. The exterior paint, brightwork and interior including the Wilton wool carpeting are in excellent condition and the E-Type shows very little wear throughout the car. This remarkable Jaguar comes complete with a full dossier of information on the car, including photos and receipts of the restoration, all of which will be available for viewing on sight. This Series I, covered headlight, mauve E-Type Roadster is one of the most impressively painted examples we have seen in some time and we encourage close examination as we are told the car drives even better than it looks.
