Comments from the seller

This Jaguar Series 3 V12 Roadster is a rare opportunity for the serious collector, offering all the features that make these cars highly desirable and increasingly collectible. • Delivered new to a Brisbane owner on 11 October 1974. • Accompanied by the original delivery docket, original service book, and a selection of original tools. • Matching numbers, verified by the Heritage Certificate. • Presented in striking Bright Red and in exceptional condition. • Desirable 4-speed manual transmission coupled with the legendary V12 engine, running perfectly. • Showing just 68,266 kilometres, which careful analysis suggests is genuine. • Fastidiously maintained throughout its life, including the past seven years by Fonte Motors, Perth's leading Jaguar specialist. • Drives superbly and remains cool even in heavy traffic on 45°C days. • As a late-1974 model, it incorporates all final Series 3 updates, making it one of the most reliable and desirable E-Type variants. Beautifully presented and ready to enjoy, this outstanding Roadster would be a prized addition to any discerning collector's garage.
