E-Type Series 1 for sale
As you would expect from the extensive list of upgrades above this is a very reliable car built for modern driving conditions without loosing that special e-type aura.
The car has been set up for everyday use as well as continental touring at which it excels, largely due to an overdrive. The lower gearing combined with the extra 8 inches in length of a 2+2 makes ride a far nicer experience than in a standard E-type coupe and of course access is a lot easier!
This is not a concourse car but is still stunning and very comfortable to drive. It has been priced sensibly so serious enquiries only please.
