The Jaguar E-Type Series 1 3.8 FHC is one of the most recognisable British sports cars of its era. Its elegant fixed-head coupé bodywork, long bonnet and classic proportions give the E-Type its distinctive character.

This example was first registered on 1 January 1964 and is finished in British Racing Green. The 3,781 cc engine is paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. The indicated mileage is 7,424 miles. The chassis number is 890681.

The car underwent a professional restoration in the past. The bodywork was repainted and shows signs of use. The underside is in good condition and also reflects an older restoration. The interior was restored and shows signs of use. The tyres were recently replaced.

Mechanically, the engine runs well, although adjustment is recommended. The engine block originates from a Jaguar MK9 and the cylinder head from a Jaguar MK10. The clutch, gearbox, brakes and handbrake all function well.
