The final 3 Series Jaguar E-Type was built between 1971 and 1975. These cars featured 12-cylinder V12 engines (5.3L), and to cope with the extra power, upgraded brakes and power steering as standard. The Jaguar E-Type Series 3 is easily recognisable from other models because of the big cross-slatted grille in front, flared wheel arches and the ...

- Jaguar E-Type S1 & S2: Our Verdict
A large percentage of an E-type’s bodywork is made up of a one-piece forward hinged bonnet, which is easily damaged on the leading edge if raised on uneven ground. The bonnet is constructed from several sections bolted together and rust can start in the seams behind the chrome trim. Other areas to check for rot on a Jaguar E-type are both floor pan...
Although the E-type’s straight-six is a tough unit if serviced correctly, these engines can suffer from head gasket failure. Try to inspect the sides of the block for any recent coolant stains and signs of any mayonnaise-type gloop lurking underneath the oil filler cap, which could indicate coolant has mixed with the engine oil. Any light rattling ...
The E-type’s double wishbone front suspension and rack-and-pinion steering is mounted on the lower longitudinal rails supporting the engine, while the car’s complex rear independent rear setup is contained in a pressed steel cage bolted to the floor pan. If it’s possible, jack up each wheel in turn; the first items to check are all the bushes and b...
The good news is that every bit of hard and soft trim inside a Jaguar E-type’s cabin is available from specialist suppliers. The bad news is that a full interior re-trim for either a roadster or coupé will be a wallet bustlingly expensive exercise. Don’t dismiss a sound imported car with a tatty cabin though, as E-type prices know no bounds and any...
Since prices for Series 1 E-type are now out of most buyers’ budgets, a Series 2 is probably the best buy. These models offer the same glorious view down that long, louvered bonnet and drive the same way as a tidy Series 1. Later E-types enjoy improved seating and ventilation, which makes them more comfortable and useable but a decent one will stil...
