This Jaguar E-Type Series 2 Cabriolet is a true icon and offers a unique opportunity for collectors and classic car enthusiasts. This vehicle was restored in 1999 and served as the official promotional vehicle for the legendary Austin Powers film ‘The Spy Who Shagged Me’. It is one of only two examples that were specially built for the film’s promotional campaign. This exclusive status is supported by an original letter from the film company.

Under the bonnet of this Jaguar E-Type is the powerful 4.2-litre six-cylinder engine, coupled to a manual four-speed gearbox.

With its striking Union Jack paintwork, this Jaguar is an absolute eye-catcher. The exterior is perfectly complemented by a red soft top and a stylish two-tone interior in red and blue. The interior not only exudes luxury, but also offers a nostalgic retro look that fits in perfectly with the theme of the film. The Jaguar is also equipped with chrome wire wheels and a wooden sports steering wheel. The interior and paintwork show signs of wear here and there.

The description of this vehicle is, to the best of the seller’s knowledge, accurate and not misleading. Route 66 Auctions requests a range of detail about the car from the seller and performs a level of due diligence. However, potential buyers must independently satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of the description.

The background of the first profile photo may have been edited. All other photos are original, as provided by the seller.

Please note that it is not uncommon for classic or collectible vehicles to have received cosmetic repairs in the past, to rectify damage or refresh appearance, and this work may be hard to see even upon visual inspection.

Photographs may not reflect the exact true colour or exact full condition of the vehicle. It is a bidder’s responsibility to assure themselves of the colour and condition of a vehicle, including its interior and the existence of any remedial bodywork or paintwork, before committing to bid or buy.
