The Jaguar E-type, launched in 1961, is widely regarded as one of the most iconic and breathtaking vehicles ever produced. The 1962 Series 1 3.8-liter Coupe is a particularly coveted model within this legendary range, famous for its beauty, performance and innovative engineering. This model represents the pinnacle of British automotive design and technical finesse from the early 1960s and remains a coveted collector's item among car enthusiasts. At the heart of the E-type Series 1 3.8 is the powerful 3.8-liter inline six-cylinder engine, which delivered impressive performance for the time. With an output of about 265 hp, the car could accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in less than 7 seconds, a remarkable feat for a production car of the early 1960s. This engine, combined with advanced all-wheel drive and lightweight construction, provided a dynamic and exhilarating driving experience. The E-type's design is unmistakable and timeless. The long, low-slung hood, streamlined shape and distinctive taillights create an instantly recognizable silhouette that still turns heads. The coupe version offers an enclosed cabin that accentuates the vehicle's elegance and sportiness, with flowing lines that minimize drag and maximize performance. The interior is equally impressive, with a focus on simplicity, sportiness and comfort, featuring luxurious materials and a distinctive British sense of style. In addition to its aesthetic and performance qualities, the E-type also pioneered engineering and innovation. It was one of the first production cars to offer disc brakes all around, a feature that emphasized its superior braking capabilities. The independent rear suspension contributed to improved handling and comfort, allowing the E-Type to excel both on the road and on the track. The E-Type offered here is in drivable condition. Both the interior and exterior look generally good. Several workbooks come with the car. The 1962 Jaguar E-type Series 1 3.8 liter Coupe remains an icon of the automotive industry, a symbol of the golden age of British car design and technical innovation. Owning or even driving an E-type offers a unique opportunity to be part of the rich history of the automobile, an experience as timeless as the car itself.
