"Nobody’s Pussycat" - Jaguar
A Cool Classic among Cool Classics: the Jaguar E-Type Series 1 4.2 OTS
Over the past 59 years, the E-Type has fulfilled its calling: to drive, amaze, and spread smiles. With its long nose, curvaceous hips, and sensual lines, draped in Dark Blue with a cognac leather interior, this car is truly in its element. A refined lady, but one who might give you a mischievous glance across the Christmas table while you’re deep in conversation with your father-in-law. Elegant, but with an edge.
The E-Type Series I made its European debut on March 15, 1961, at the Geneva Motor Show and in April that same year in the United States at the New York Auto Show. Did you know that Enzo Ferrari actually never said this was the most beautiful car ever?
Our example? Straight out of Q Branch! Recently nut & bolt restored and delivered directly from the restorer to us, with some amazing upgrades. Among its repertoire, it has new K&N air filters, modern disc brakes, shock absorbers, 123 ignition, and a classic radio with Bluetooth for "some banging tunes." Great to have, although we prefer the thrilling sound of this Jaaaaaag!
In addition, it boasts matching numbers and retains its original exterior color, tastefully paired with the cognac interior, tailored with the precision only a Savile Row tailor would know. Planning to take a ski trip in an E-Type this year or head straight to southern Spain? This beauty will certainly not let you down.
Only then will you understand why this gem is also high on our personal favorites list.
Will we see you soon?
