Car description
The 1962 Jaguar E-Type is an absolute icon of style and automotive excellence from the 60s, a car that forever changed the face of the industry and became one of the most sought-after classics in history. This model, with its long hood and sleek, tight cabin, offers not only extraordinary performance but also unforgettable style. At that time, parameters such as 265 horsepower, acceleration to 100 km/h in just under 7 seconds, and a top speed of 240 km/h must have made a massive impression – and still do! The Jaguar E-Type was not only beautiful but also offered performance that could rival the best sports cars of that era, including Ferrari, but at a much more accessible price. It's no wonder it achieved tremendous sales success and became a symbol of automotive elegance.
The presented example is a Jaguar E-Type Fixed Head Coupe (FHC) from the first production series, equipped with a 3.8-liter engine fed by triple SU carburetors. This version features many characteristic elements of the second stage of the first series – such as starting the engine with a button, positive ground, and the original charging system based on a generator. All of this makes this Jaguar retain its original character, which is crucial for true classic car enthusiasts.
The restoration that the presented example underwent was carried out by the renowned Rzepecki Auto workshop and was completed in 2017. The car was taken down to the last screw, and the base was a beautiful example from the American market. Thanks to extraordinarily precise work, many original details were preserved, such as the patinated leather seat covers that give the interior a unique atmosphere. Numerous period elements that have been restored also highlight the exceptional character of this car. The E-Type is equipped with an improved cooling system, 1-2-3 electronic ignition, an electric fuel pump, as well as a manual Getrag gearbox (the original gearbox is included in the set). The Bluetooth radio is a subtle addition that combines tradition with modernity without affecting the car's original character.
Thanks to these modifications, the Jaguar E-Type offers even better driving experiences – the improved cooling system and modern ignition system ensure the engine runs extremely smoothly and reliably. Under the hood lies a 3.8-liter R6 engine that sounds incredibly robust, and its power and character make every kilometer driven in this car special. The car handles confidently and smoothly, making it an ideal choice for both leisurely drives and more dynamic routes.
The price of 688,000 PLN reflects not only the technical and visual condition of this example but also its value as a classic of automotive history, which has retained its original character and undergone a comprehensive restoration at the highest level. The 1962 Jaguar E-Type is not just a car – it is a symbol of an era, a work of art on wheels that continues to inspire and evoke emotions. Every journey in this car is a return to the golden age of motoring, where style, power, and true driving pleasure mattered.
