1968 Jaguar E Type | Middlesbrough, North Yorkshire

The Jaguar E-Type is the British sports car admired for its long bonnet, flowing lines and smooth straight-six engine. This 1968 example is a Series 1.5 in 2+2 form, which means it seats four. This car is finished in Cream with a Black leather interior, a soft pairing that lets the curves of the bodywork do the talking. Its condition is excellent. The 4.2-litre engine gives the deep straight-six note Jaguar enthusiasts know, and the automatic gearbox, unusual in a car of this age, keeps the driving relaxed for slow arrivals and rolling shots. The long bonnet and low profile give photography, fashion and editorial shoots and advertising plenty to frame, and the pale paint reads well against brick or open countryside. Film and television work set in the late 1960s gains a period car, and its engine note adds atmosphere to a music video. Weddings and personal hires are served well by the black leather cabin. The car is based in Middlesbrough, North Yorkshire.
