History: Legend has it that when it went on display for the first time at the Geneva Motor Show in 1961, none other than Enzo Ferrari remarked that the E-type (known as the XKE in the U.S.) was the most beautiful car heandrsquo;d ever seen. Mr. Ferrari knew a pretty car when he saw one and he might have been one of the first to express the sentiment, but an incalculable number of others have said virtually the same thing and theyandrsquo;re still saying it fifty years later. Designed by a noted aerodynamicist Malcolm Sayer, the E-type was meant to cheat the wind, but its glass covered headlights, long hood, short rear deck and compound curves also coincidentally looked great. With a 0-60 time of around seven seconds and a 150 mph top speed, the Series I E-type was near the top of the early 1960s food chain. A 2+2 coupe was added to the coupe and convertible body styles in 1966. Parts are easy to find and not terribly expensive for any version of the E-type.

This Jaguar was a recent barn find and is in pretty well-preserved condition. She was just recently serviced as well. The series 1 is extremely collectible and is a great car to add to any collection.
