Footnotes

This 1972 Jaguar E-Type is a beautiful Series III example that was originally a US left-hand drive car finished in silver with black leather. However upon its arrival in the UK in 1996, the car was finished in British Racing Green with magnolia leather interior, so it is believed to have been fully restored, re-painted and re-appointed at some point whilst in the US. There is an extensive history file with detailed documentation of its ownership and service records since its arrival in the UK. It is recorded to have had four owners since 1996, and has changed hands in 1998, 2000 and 2006. The car was purchased by the vendor in 2006, and he has kept it in an excellent condition. During his ownership the car has had a full engine rebuild and has been serviced meticulously. The rear end and subframe have also been removed and powder coated, and new brake discs, shock absorbers and springs have also fitted. The car is overall in a very good condition and its V12 engine is said to be running well.
