This 1966-model E-Type Roadster left the factory on Christmas Eve
in 195 bound for Jaguar Cars, New York, <SA. A full matching
numbers example, the car was originally finished in Primrose Yellow
with black interior, its present colour combination, and according to the
accompanying Jaguar Heritage Certificate was first owned by one John
R Little. The only other piece of ownership evidence on file is a (copy) <S
title issued in August 197 in the name of John S Piccorillo of Huntington
Beach, California (signed by him in October 2012).


The current vendor purchased the E-Type in 2014 from JD Classics,
who had rebuilt the engine that same year (Workshop Report on file). 0n
20142015 CKL Developments carried out a comprehensive mechanical
restoration, including upgrades to the brakes, suspension, etc (original
parts with car) at a cost of ‰45,000 as documented in the history file.


We are advised that the E-Type drives beautifully, with very secure
steering, suspension and braking, and is quick. Depending on the
purchaser's preference, it could be kept looking un-restored and original
(with all mechanical work done and nothing to spend) or repainted and
re-trimmed to complete the restoration. A rare and desirable E-Type
variant, sorted by the best specialists.
£100,000 - 130,000
