The first E Type Jaguar with disc brakes and independent suspension all round was announced in 1961 as an XK150 replacement. The first of the line was powered by the familiar 3791cc 6-cylinder XK engine and, thanks to the fine aerodynamics of the open or fixed head bodies offered - initially with faired-in headlamps, performance was sensational. The model was further improved in 1964 with a 4235cc engine.
This Staffordshire entered Jaguar was made in Coventry in 1969. An E Type Series 2 4.2 and originally lefthand drive, the roadster has been extensively rebuilt and converted to righthand drive by a recognised Jaguar Specialist. During this refurbishment, the car has been faithfully restored to its original pale blue exterior, beige interior and black hood. ú2,500 has been spent in the last 6 months alone on the brakes, trim, exterior panels and electrics. Body and paintwork are said to be in very good condition and the trim all new. The 4.2-litre 6-cylinder engine is reportedly in very good order and the 4-speed manual transmission serviceable.
The owner has obtained a Heritage certificate from the Daimler Jaguar Heritage Trust confirming manufacturing and specification details. All taxes were paid when this originally export car was repatriated, the car having been issued with a UK V5 by the DVLC. It is absolutely ready and waiting to be appreciated, driven and enjoyed.

The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
