Jaguar E Type 4.2 S2 3C Manual '69 CH40494
52 950 € EUR

This highly optioned matching-numbers Jaguar E-Type 4.2 S2 3C Manual was delivered new in the USA and therefore features a short final drive, allowing brisk acceleration to legal cruising speeds. It comes in the classic Opalescent Silver Grey with black leather, entirely original on the seats, door panels and even the boot – made notably practical thanks to its three-door layout.

Equipment includes chrome wire wheels, original mirrors, excellent panel alignment (Spaltmaßen), a wooden sports steering wheel, twin sports exhaust, modern radio in classic style, air conditioning and two seatbelts.

The 4.2-litre straight-six – identified by its black cam cover and considered the most reliable and maintenance-friendly E-Type engine – is fitted with an extremely expensive brand-new set of Weber 45 DCOE carburettors and an aluminium radiator. The Italian-designed Weber 45 DCOE is famed for its high airflow, immediate throttle response and mechanical purity, used on numerous sports cars including Ferrari, Maserati, Alfa Romeo, Lotus, BMW and Ford race engines.

The body is straight and solid, and although the paint is older, it remains perfectly usable as-is or can serve as a solid base for future concours restoration.

Our Oldtimerfarm inspection team has prepared an expert report including the following.
