    Car offered for sale on TradeMe site in New Zealand.
    www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx

    This is one of the lowest km V12 E Types for sale in NZ. Although it says 5 owners it has had one family owner from new until 2005 followed by another private owner for just over a year then a dealer and then the present owner. The mileage at the 2005 sale was 32,926 and the present mileage is 35,184 so throughout it's life it has averaged 1,000kms per year! This car is being sold on behalf of a deceased estate and can be viewed 10kms from Blenheim by appointment. It has new Bridgestone B70 205/70/15 tyres, it has recently had a full service although lack of use means the battery needs a good charge and the brakes may need a bleed (they do work but a lot of pedal travel). The interior is as new, the exterior is in excellent condition with only two small paint chips by the rear door (see photos). Registration has expired last month but as the personalised plate does not go with the car a new plate will be required and registration can be done then. We have a record of the original registration number so that may be used through personalised plates (maybe). One of the best V12 E Types needs a new home where it can be pampered and used to it's full potential.

    Quite a nice looking car. However, it is not Cotswold Blue, which is much darker and had gone out of the range long before the V12 arrived, but Powder Blue which was seen only on S2 and S3 E types

    My E Type has 40,000 KM clocked and is verified. I am the 5th owner with one owner having it for 32 years. Lovely car to drive though at 100KM/HR(NZ speed limit) it is not quite humming.

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    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?
