We could keep repeating that even Enzo Ferrari considered this car the most beautiful of all time. But let’s be honest, we already know that!

Between 1967 and 1968, an interim phase was built, informally known as the '1 1/2'. These models closely resemble the Series 1 but, towards the end, no longer had the glass-covered headlights and featured different control levers. Gradually, equipment from the upcoming Series 2 was introduced, while the bodywork always remained that of the Series 1. At Jaguar itself, these '1 1/2' models were still classified under the Series 1.

This particular example is an early Series 1.5, recognizable by its classic features such as the open headlights, the three SU carburetors, and the original dashboard with the characteristic Series 1 switches. Additionally, the elegant Series 1 bumpers have been retained, further enhancing its authentic appearance. The car was built in late 1967 and entered the market in 1968.

Although the car was already in excellent shape, he chose not to race it but instead optimized the engine. Thanks to upgrades such as a higher compression ratio, improved cooling, and an advanced water pump, the engine underwent a full top-level rebuild in 2011. During this process, asbestos parts were removed, and the technical aspects were completely improved.

Since then, the Jaguar has remained in the hands of the same enthusiast. Originally purchased in completely original condition with an exceptionally low mileage, the car became practically a "zero-kilometer car" after the extensive nut-and-bolt restoration in 2011.

Every detail has been meticulously refined, from the engine overhaul to the interior, resulting in an exceptionally sophisticated E-Type. This restoration, which continued until 2024, has brought the car back to a condition that surpasses its original glory.

During the process, the Jaguar was equipped with high-quality components and finished with luxurious leather upholstery by an interior specialist. The exclusive Golden Sand...
