This vehicle is only visible in the Eau de Pétrole Showroom.

Trade-In possible.

This 1970 Jaguar E-Type Cabriolet represents one of the most celebrated sports cars of all time, a stunning blend of performance, elegance, and heritage.

Finished in a beautifully preserved condition, this example has undergone a comprehensive restoration in the past, followed by regular yearly maintenance and inspections to ensure it remains in excellent running order. The result is a car that performs and presents superbly, offering the thrill of the E-Type experience in a well-cared-for and highly original package.

Under the long, flowing bonnet lies the legendary 4.2-litre inline-six engine, paired with a manual gearbox that perfectly complements its spirited character. Smooth, torquey, and deeply engaging, this setup captures the essence of classic Jaguar performance.

These cars are particularly prized for combining the pure styling of the early Series 1 — with covered headlights, slim bumpers, and delicate proportions — with the mechanical refinements introduced in later models, such as improved cooling and electrics.
