From the moment the Jaguar E-Type was first unveiled to the public at the Geneva Motor Show in 1961, the world of sports cars changed forever. A new benchmark in beauty and performance had been set by Malcolm Sayer’s curvaceous creation, against which all future competitors would be measured. The ground-breaking design was not only achingly attractive - it was truly fast. A 3.8-litre inline six-cylinder engine fed via three Weber carburettors was mated to a Moss four-speed manual gearbox, offering lively acceleration and a 150 mph top speed. Nowhere was this better demonstrated than on the eve of the model’s launch, as Jaguar test driver Norman Dewis drove flat-out through the night to deliver the show car 77RW to Jaguar’s stand on time.

This RHD 1963 Series 1 Roadster is an FIA registered Competition GT car with valid Historic Technical Passport for Hill Climb, Rally and Racing. Valid until 31st December 2027. The car was acquired by its current owner in 2017 and has since had a new Crosswaithe and Gardener straight-six engine fitted as well as a Denis Welch gearbox and Hewland differential. The car has been maintained and prepared thoroughly over the years by specialists Blakeney Motorsport and has been used on a small number of test days only.

This FIA registered E-Type would be highly eligible for a variety of high-profile racing events including Goodwood, Tour Auto, and Le Mans Classic. It is also currently U.K. Road Registered and would make for a thrilling companion on any weekend drive. Contact us now for more information or to arrange a viewing.
