JAGUAR E-TYPE-SERIES 1.  1967, 36K MILES WITH INCREDIBLE HISTORY.

 

Jaguar E-Type Series 1 -1967 -Original Uk RHD .
Amazing and very rare to have the cars entire history from brand new to present day recorded in the history file.


Jaguar heritage trust certificate confirms this stunning fixed head E-type was produced is 1967 and Sold by Henlys of London brand new is January 1968. It stayed in the same family almost all of its life and retains its original green log book. This stunning e-type has never had a full restoration , it has always been Primrose yellow and although paintwork has been re- done at a specialist e-type restorer it is still very original and still as it left the factory. On top of this, this 1 family plus 1 owner car has had every step of its history manually logged all its life to the present day. From day of collection new , every journey , every change of oil , every fill up at petrol stations etc has been logged. Mind blowing and very rare to have such an original UK car with such detailed history. We hope the new enthusiast will continue this important piece of history.


Details of the car itself.. The pictures and FullHD walk round video is exactly what you get. The bodywork and paintwork is immaculate and is still in its original Primrose colour way. The bright work is all in 1st class order and there is no cheap aftermarket parts here . The mileage is confirmed by the most amazing records and sits at circa 36k miles . (Find another !!!) . The interior is excellent . Again not a fresh restoration with everything brand-new but all original with minimal wear and usage. Everything works as it should and the interior space is a very nice place to be. You can almost smell the history in this car and its a privilege to be part of this fairly unique classic cars history whilst handling the sale.


In the history file when analysed it is noted that the cars mileage is so low as this E-type was put into quality storage for some 25 years. After this an amount of re-commissioning was needed . This was done by a marque specialist in 2018, the mileage at this stage was a mere 28, 872 miles . After the family ownership and coming to the previous owner , whom is a collector who we know well , this car has been used for shows and tours and won some best of show trophies along the way. A large amount of recent expenditure.again with E-type specialists / restorers has been spent and is all recorded in the history file. Works include fitting of complete electronic ignition distributor, brake discs , new calliper upgrade, rebuilt diff, ball joints , ss brake hoses etc etc . Invoices in the history show approx 11k worth of work since 2018 . The file also contains the original manuals that came with the car from new . Also a valuation certificate done by Footman James (properly) values at 95k.


I can confirm, knowing the car well and knowing the previous owner very well this E-type drives superbly and performs exactly as it should. Constant 40psi oil pressure at idle when warm . We would love to see this Jag go to a fellow enthusiast who will love and look after it and keep up its amazing history file, even if it goes abroad.
To answer a question we know that will come . “Why is it being sold ? “ It is good to know , the owner is keen to see it go to a good home and it’s a house move and some extensive time of life travel plans that await this Jag enthusiast.
Amazing opportunity to buy a “proper” not messed with iconic original RHD series 1.

2004 Mercedes 350 slk auto.  Very low miles, 2 owners, immaculate.

 

Late 2004 Mercedes 350 SLK with approx 5. 5k worth of factory options. Including the 7 speed tiptronic gearbox, heated seats, xenon Headlamps etc . With an incredible low mileage backed by all history of 29160 miles . 2 owners from new, both of which kept this Merc in pristine condition both mechanically and cosmetically.


Previous owner of many years when looking for the best he could find , went to the highly rated specialists The SL Shop where upon he had a choice of 3. He picked the best one . Not only that, his dedication and enthusiasm obviously showed as he then gained employment with them as their detailer. The car has been kept in a heated and dehumidified garage on trickle charge and only used for local days out.
Every MOT has been passed and 95 percent without even a single advisory. A recent Mot has been done and hardly any mileage since. The service interval indicator in the settings shows 9500 miles till next service . The history file is extensive with original manuals and spare key.
The mileage is true and can be warranted by the MOT documentation.
Exterior/ Interior
- The exterior and interior of the car are both totally original and immaculate . The interior is representative of such a low mileage and well maintained car.
- The overall condition of the paintwork is very nice .
- The original wheels present well .
- All tyres have a good amount of tread and are matching.
- The seats are in good condition and are all electric and heated .
-There is the addition of genuine Merc over mats . Also included is an indoor car cover.
- The roof works as it should with no issues. all normally hidden from view areas like under the boot carpet, In the spare wheel well , under the roof mechanism , under the bonnet are immaculate and clean .
Everything works , fold way mirrors, parking sensors , etc etc.
- Standard stereo with Bluetooth connection.
Every now and again and getting rarer we find a low mileage and low owner car that attracts our attention then to arrive to find an owner who worked for a Merc specialist and was a vehicle detailer is the icing on the cake .

 

Summary : extremely low mileage , 2 owners both of which kept the car immaculate. 5. 5k worth of nice extras from factory . Long Mot with fantastic history.

FIAT 600D – 1962 – RARE.  EARY SUICIDE DOOR VERSION – IMMACULATE.

 

Fiat 600D-1962- This is an immaculate example of what is becoming a very rare classic. The 600D is always considered a slightly larger version of the popular 500. As such with the early 500d having suicide door configuration so does the early 600D. For all Italian vehicles shortly after this period the suicide door option was banned from production due to safety concerns of the door opening to oncoming traffic ! These versions are now even rarer than their counterparts. Many other early features are also exclusive to this model.


This example in "Bianco" is absolutely superb. The Red and Cream interior is immaculate. The paintwork again is excellent. The engine bay and boot space are both immaculate and show standard. The wheels have had a recent refurb and 5 brand new radials have been fitted. We have fitted some nice period aluminium pressed number plates just to Finnish her off. Mechanically again is "bellisimo" and runs like the preverbal watch.


These are super quirky classics that are sure to rise in value as they are just getting so hard to find, especially in this condition. The parts availability and inexpensive cost associated with these Fiats is just amazing. My Fiat is ready to go with full trailered transport offered at cost if required or just drive her home!
 

Part ex welcome for similar standard classic cars.

CORVETTE C1 - 1954 SUPER RARE.  AMAZING RESTORATION.

 

Chevrolet Corvette - 1954. America’s 1st true sports car.
Iconic, super rare, 13 year restoration. Now out of recent storage. 7. 5k recently spent with complete gearbox rebuild, Starter and charging system overhaul, complete fuel system rebuild due to fuel degradation including cabrs rebuilt, new fuel pump etc. New battery plus much more. All done as car was stored in a private collection and not used.


This absolutely stunning, very rare and iconic car, known as America’s 1st true production sports convertible, has been restored to concours standard several years ago, over a 13 year period. The ‘54 is within months of the 1st ever Corvette produced in December ‘53. Also with the original all matching numbers, famous 6 cylinder Blue Flame engine. Chevrolet moved onto what is now known as the small block V8 some 12 months later. Only the Corvette had tripple sidedraft carb set up. As such, items like the twin air cleaner set up, which is exclusive to this car. The numbers matching brass serial tags on each carburettor are 100 dollars each!! The original Wonderbar self seeking radio was sent back to the states to be restored to full working order, as there was just one of the very few men in the world willing to do it, this cost a small fortune. Every small detail has been researched and restored to original spec. Hence the 13 year project. The history file contains down to chassis photos and some rare literature. This car has been featured at The NEC on a couple of occasions. Every show this stunning Corvette has been to it has won Best in show, several times over. There are only Three other roadworthy examples known to be in the UK and this is the best by far.. There is so much detail and owner’s information, it is just too much to include in an advert. The car is only driven in dry conditions and drives superb especially now the more recent work has been done. In the USA, 125000 dollar price tags for like for like cars are common place. We are happy to answer sensible questions. We are happy to provide covered transport at cost. Uk. delivery can be arranged, and part exchange is currently considered on this Chevrolet Corvette.
