Jaguar E-Type series 1 OTS
Specifications
The story behind this collectible...
A Cool Classic of Cool Classics: the Jaguar E-type series 1 convertible. This Jaguar Etype series 1 OTS 3.8. A car from the time when smoking was healthy, television had only one channel. The most important thing from that time; the time when driving was real driving, without aids or sensation-enhancing foppery!
The design of the series 1 has been praised to this day, and Enzo Ferrari already called it the most beautiful car ever made. If you walk around the MoMA in New York City (Museum of Modern Art) today, you will automatically come across this car; the OTS series 1 E-type. This E-type is mesmerizing and should be allowed into the museum in no time. The perfect chrome stands out on the shiny British Racing Green paint, and the recognizable beautiful series 1 interior with black leather. A car not elevated to art, but what art is. Form over function, but damn functional and fun!
She joined a passionate restorer in Oslo in 2012 who has restored the car to perfection himself. Every aspect of the car was selected with extreme care, thoroughly examined and restored with mastery. The restorer, a true perfectionist, has even written his reasoning for each photo. His pursuit of perfection has definitely paid off. A true masterpiece. In 2023, the car was again extensively maintained, with the same passion and dedication that went into its restoration, to ensure that it remains in optimal condition.
'Domesticated, not declawed.'
