Description from the seller

OVERVIEW/CODNITION
1969 Jaguar E-Type OTS (Open Two-Seater) in good mechanical and cosmetic condition. The car retains its Inline 6-cylinder, naturally aspirated 4.2-liter engine, producing 246 horsepower, and a factory 4-speed manual transmission. The vehicle is an older, professionally restored example that presents well and retains its classic appeal. The car has the period-correct wire wheels, black leather interior, and only 93749 indicated miles on the odometer. The vehicle has a current Danish registration and papers and passed the Danish Technical Inspection (MOT/TUV) in February 2025, confirming its excellent condition and roadworthiness.

The powerful 4.2-liter engine has undergone recent work under prior ownership, ensuring it runs smoothly and efficiently. There is no smoke during startup or while driving. The manual transmission provides an authentic driving experience and shifts smoothly through the gears. No leaks observed from the engine and transmission during inspection and preparation for sale. The brakes, belts, clutch, and suspension are in good condition and free of issues.

The paint and body are in good condition. Panel gaps are uniform and consistent with factory specifications, indicating the panel is well preserved. We see no rust in the car or body. Rubber seals, windows, chrome, and lights are all in good condition. The softtop roof is in good condition.

The black leather interior is in good condition and consistent with age and mileage. Minimal wear on the seats and touchpoints, including the dashboard, door panels, and carpet, is visible as shown in the photos. Gauges, switches, and electrical systems are all in working order.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
