Engine
If you can look past the iconic styling, you will also find automotive art underneath the hood of this 1974 Jaguar XKE Convertible. Pop open the hood, and what you will find is a British V12 motor capable of giving you infinite memories behind the wheel. The current owner reports that the motor sees some refreshing to make it run smoother; they reported a rebuilt alternator, ignition system, and starter to cut down on the electrical issues; the motor also sees a recent oil change to ensure a smooth transition of power. With the V12 motor running smoothly, the current owner also reports a new sway bar bushing and ball joints for better ride quality. Power is channeled to the car's rear wheels through a manual transmission that sports a new clutch for smooth gear shifts.
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.
One of the prettiest cars in the world, the Jaguar E-Type was so breathtaking when it launched in 1961 that it reportedly was able to even captivate the heart of Enzo Ferrari! Called the XK-E for the North American market, it was made between 1961 and 1974 and offered in coupe and convertible variants. Purists argue that the coupe is the better looking of the two, and if you’d like to join in the discussion, why not get some ammo? Here’s a 1967 Jaguar XK-E 2+2 for sale from Cincinnati, Ohio. It’s a wonderful specimen of one of the most prolific cars of the Sixties and is an excellent future investment too.
When it was launched in 1961, the Jaguar E-Type (or XK-E to us in North America) was reportedly called the most beautiful car ever made. This claim is said to have come from none other than Enzo Ferrari, although it remains to be substantiated. Either way, there’s no denying the impact that the E-Type would have on the motoring world. Long, low and sleek, Jaguar claimed it to have a 150mph top speed. Whether that was true or not (spoiler alert, it was initially not, then it came to be), the E-Type remains one of the most desirable classic cars in the world to this day. So, here’s a lucky find, a 33,219-mile 1968 Jaguar XK-E from Pennsylvania. This Series 1.5 car is a 2+2 and has received some refreshment to keep it at its peak.
The X100-generation Jaguar XKR remains one of the great grand touring cars of the modern era, effortlessly combining timeless British styling with V8 muscle and long-distance comfort. Introduced as the high-performance variant of the XK, the XKR added a supercharged V8, sharper chassis tuning, and a more aggressive personality while retaining Jaguar’s unmistakable elegance. This 2002 Jaguar XKR 100 Convertible is an especially desirable example, as it is one of only 500 XKR 100 models produced worldwide and one of just 300 convertibles built to commemorate Jaguar’s centennial anniversary. Showing 101,062 miles, this rare special edition is finished in Anthracite over a Charcoal interior and features exclusive XKR 100 appointments, making it a collectible modern Jaguar that stands apart from a standard XKR.
The 2018 Jaguar XE 25t embodies Jaguar’s approach to the modern compact luxury sport sedan, combining elegant British styling with a driver-focused chassis and turbocharged performance. Showing 50,093 miles, this Narvik Black example offers all-wheel-drive confidence and a refined driving experience that’s equally suited for daily commuting or spirited backroad drives. With its premium appointments, responsive handling, and sophisticated design, the XE remains an appealing alternative to its German luxury sedan rivals.
Jaguar’s XJS spent more than two decades carrying the torch for the legendary E-Type, evolving into one of the most refined grand touring cars of its era. This 1991 Jaguar XJS V12 Convertible shows 52,140 miles and represents one of the final years of the facelifted pre-AJR6 V12 models. Finished in elegant Signal Red over a Black interior, this British luxury convertible combines timeless styling, smooth V12 power, and open-air touring capability. With its long hood, pillarless design, and turbine-smooth twelve-cylinder engine, the XJS remains one of the most distinctive grand tourers produced by Jaguar. Today, well-preserved V12 convertibles are increasingly appreciated by collectors for their combination of exclusivity, craftsmanship, and classic British character.
