Car Bio

Finished in the delicate yet striking hue of Opalescent Silver Blue, this Jaguar E-Type Series I captures the essence of 1960s British motoring elegance and innovation. Its design – long bonnet, faired-in headlamps, and tapering tail – was the work of aerodynamicist Malcolm Sayer, and remains a benchmark in automotive beauty. The shimmering metallic finish highlights the car’s fluid lines, adding a subtle modernity to its classic form. Beneath the bonnet lies a 3.8-litre inline-six engine fed by triple SU carburetors, delivering smooth, eager power and a soundtrack that ranges from refined to raw with a press of the throttle.

Coupled with a four-speed manual gearbox, it offers a driving experience that was revolutionary in its time – and still engaging today. Disc brakes all around and monocoque construction brought cutting-edge performance to the road, making the E-Type as capable as it was captivating. This particular example, stands as a pure expression of Jaguar’s ambition to bring racing pedigree and elegance to the open road.
