What we've got here is the gorgeous Jaguar E-Type, also called the XK-E in the United States. This 1969 Jaguar XK-E Coupe hails from the Series 2 generation that ran between 1968 and 1971, and the current owner reports that the car has received a total rebuild from its previous owner. With just 36,000 miles reported, it's a perfect piece for a classic car aficionado who enjoys driving as well as admiring.
Exterior and Interior
The lustrous maroon paint job of this 1969 Jaguar XKE 2+2 Series 2 perfectly highlights its lines that reviewers of the time blatantly called sexy. Thanks to US NHTSA regulations, though, the faired-in glass headlamp covers have been done away with, and the rear bumper is larger than on UK-market examples. A set of wire wheels with white-striped tires add a sense of joie de vivre, and you can imagine a vibrant drive down a winding road in this beauty as being rather entertaining. Inside, we find a black leather-trimmed cabin with seating for four occupants that's reportedly been redone. It's all period correct here as well, with the original gauges looking fabulous, as well as the aircraft-inspired bank of gauges and switches in the center console. The only touch of modernity is the head unit, which is a newer JVC unit that offers CD playback. We can also observe some new speakers installed on either side of the center console in the footwells. Behind the seats there's a decently-sized trunk under a side-opening tailgate, remembering that the E-Type is a grand tourer, after all.
Engine
This 1969 Jaguar XK-E Coupe is powered by a 4.2-liter straight six with twin Zenith carburetors. For 1969, it produced 246hp and sent it to the rear wheels. Interestingly, while this car came with an automatic transmission from the factory, the previous owner converted it to a five-speed manual variant with a new rear end. This should make driving all that more enjoyable, as automatic transmissions from the period weren't said to be the most responsive or jubilant to drive.
The 1968 Jaguar E-Type XKE Series I 4.2 Roadster remains one of the most recognizable British sports cars ever built, pairing its long-bonnet proportions and open two-seat body with the smooth power of Jaguar’s legendary XK inline-six. Showing 72,133 miles, this example is finished in Carmen Red over a Black interior with a Black convertible soft top. Triple SU HD8 carburetors, a 4-speed manual transmission, four-wheel disc brakes, and classic Smiths instrumentation give it the mechanical and visual character enthusiasts expect, while aftermarket chrome wire wheels and an Alpine cassette stereo add a few personalized touches.
The 1970 Jaguar E-Type XKE Series 2 2+2 Coupe combines one of the most celebrated sports-car shapes of the 1960s with the added practicality of the longer 2+2 body. Showing 56,929 miles, this example is finished in Opalescent Silver Blue over a Black leather interior and features a custom paint job along with aftermarket wheels. Its 4.2L naturally aspirated inline-six, 3-speed automatic transmission, and rear-wheel-drive layout give it the relaxed grand-touring character associated with the later E-Type, while details such as the wood-rimmed steering wheel, Smiths instrumentation, and hinged rear hatch preserve the unmistakable character of the model.
Few automobiles are as instantly recognizable as the Jaguar E-Type, a machine that has long been celebrated for its stunning design and engaging driving dynamics. This 1969 Jaguar E-Type Series II 2+2 Coupe is a fascinating survivor story, having spent decades in storage before being recommissioned and returned to the road. Showing 78,775 miles, this example pairs Jaguar’s legendary 4.2-liter inline-six engine with the highly desirable 4-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Finished in Dark Blue over a Biscuit interior, the car retains many of the characteristics that made the E-Type an icon of the automotive world. For enthusiasts seeking a usable classic with documented history and an authentic character, this Series II 2+2 presents a unique opportunity to experience one of Britain’s most celebrated sports cars.
The 2011 Jaguar XK Convertible represents a distinctive era of Jaguar grand touring, pairing elegant British styling with a naturally aspirated V8 and an open-top layout designed for long-distance cruising as much as spirited driving. This example is finished in Caviar over a Warm Charcoal interior with a Black convertible soft top, a combination complemented by Ivory contrast stitching and Burl Walnut veneer trim. It also features 20-inch “Kasuga” multi-spoke alloy wheels and Jaguar’s hood leaper ornament, giving the car an especially classic Jaguar presentation. Showing approximately 138,756 miles, this XK offers the traditional formula of a front-mounted V8, rear-wheel drive, and a luxurious two-door convertible body.
The 2000 Jaguar XK8 Convertible captures the elegant grand-touring character that made Jaguar’s XK series so distinctive at the turn of the millennium. Showing 52,123 miles, this example is finished in Topaz Metallic over an Oatmeal leather interior with a beige convertible soft top. Its specification blends classic British luxury with desirable period equipment, including burl walnut interior trim, the Alpine Premium Sound System, a Compact Disc Autochanger, Jaguar Integrated Navigation, and chrome-plated 18-inch wheels. With its long hood, flowing bodywork, and open-top configuration, this XK8 delivers the kind of understated presence that has aged especially well.
The 2002 Jaguar XKR 100 Convertible is a genuinely special version of Jaguar’s X100-generation grand tourer, created to commemorate the 100th anniversary of company founder Sir William Lyons. Limited to just 500 XKR 100 coupes and convertibles worldwide, it combined the already potent supercharged XKR platform with a distinctive package of performance, luxury, and appearance upgrades. This example is finished in the edition-exclusive Anthracite Metallic over Warm Charcoal leather and shows approximately 10,309 miles. With its 370-horsepower supercharged V8, 20-inch BBS Montreal wheels, Brembo brakes, Recaro seating, CATS suspension, factory navigation, and Alpine audio, it delivers the blend of rarity, elegance, and performance that makes the XKR 100 particularly appealing to Jaguar enthusiasts.
