1969 Jaguar E-Type Series II Roadster | True Survivor | 32,212 Original Miles

You’re about to witness an exceptionally rare and beautifully preserved 1969 Jaguar E-Type Series II Roadster, a true survivor example with just 32,212 original miles and only three documented owners since new. This stunning Jaguar E-Type, also known as the Jaguar XKE, is accompanied by an official Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate and an extraordinary collection of original documentation that helps verify its authenticity, originality, and low mileage.

This Series II E-Type Roadster retains its original matching-numbers 4.2L inline-six engine and original matching-numbers 4-speed manual transmission, along with its original VIN tag, chassis stamp, data tag, factory sheet metal, and factory colors. It remains finished in its rarely seen and highly desirable Willow Green exterior with Suede Green leather interior, a sophisticated and period-correct color combination that beautifully complements the E-Type’s timeless design.

Remarkably, this 1969 Jaguar E-Type has never been fully restored. It has received just one high-quality repaint in 2005, completed to factory specifications, and a professionally installed factory-correct convertible top. The car has been judged multiple times by the Jaguar Clubs of North America (JCNA) and has achieved a perfect 1000 out of 1000 concours score, a testament to its originality, condition, and careful stewardship.

Originally built on November 18, 1968, this left-hand-drive Series II Open Two-Seater was dispatched from Coventry, England to British Leyland New York and sold new on June 19, 1969. The first owner cherished the car for more than three decades, documenting its careful maintenance and confirming the originality of the mileage. Subsequent ownership continued the same preservation-focused approach, ensuring this Jaguar E-Type survivor remained highly authentic throughout its life.

The exterior presents beautifully, showcasing the E-Type’s iconic long bonnet, flowing fenders, and elegant proportions. The car retains original glass, including the windshield with the factory “break-in procedure” sticker still intact, original Lucas lighting, original chrome trim, and factory 15-inch chrome wire wheels now fitted with correct Michelin XVS tires. Panel fit is excellent, and the Willow Green paint displays a deep, high-quality finish.

Inside, the Suede Green leather interior remains exceptionally well preserved, featuring original seats, door panels, center console, and carpets. The wood-rim steering wheel, Smiths gauges, original radio, and factory details reflect the craftsmanship that made the Jaguar E-Type one of the most celebrated sports cars ever built. The odometer confirms the remarkably low original mileage, reinforcing the car’s survivor status.

Power comes from the legendary 4.2-liter DOHC inline-six, factory rated at 246 horsepower, delivering smooth, refined performance and one of the most iconic exhaust notes in automotive history. The engine bay remains highly original, while the undercarriage shows factory finishes, original texture coatings, and Jaguar’s advanced independent suspension and four-wheel disc brakes—technology that helped redefine sports car engineering in the 1960s.

Often referred to as “the most beautiful car ever made,” the 1969 Jaguar E-Type Series II Roadster represents the perfect balance of performance, elegance, and collectability. With low original miles, extensive documentation, concours recognition, and exceptional originality, this Jaguar E-Type stands as a benchmark example for collectors and driving enthusiasts alike.
