This interesting car was originally registered PUS 1 which was reputably bought new by the famous actor and Director , Sir Peter Ustinov. The mot certificates reflect a mileage of 11,579 in 1991 then continuous records until 2002 showing 24,642 . We also have the SORN records to cover its period of slumber. Recently recommissioned and serviced and ready for its next owner to use and improve.
The E-Type replacing XJS appeared in Jaguar dealer showrooms from 1975. Sharing much of its running gear with the XJ6 and XJ12 saloons, albeit with shortened wheelbase and 5.3-litre twelve under bonnet, the Malcolm Sayer styled model was much more of a grand tourer with a decent sized boot than a sportscar.
