Not all E type are valuable they've made them for more than a decade. I believe this is a series III and they aren't worth much... Those models, fully restore are like 15k tops.
 
That is a worthless series III with a V12 and slush box.. It was also built by BL.. No one wants that.
 
Series 1 3.8 convertible with triple SU carbs. Then it's time to save it.


Definitely not this. Good riddance.
 
It's probaly parked for storage, although it's a very bad place to put it .. on gravel, those floorboards won't be too happy. I lost a car that way and all it took was 2 years.
 
elle à l'air en bonne condition tous de même, est-ce que c'est possible de trouver les information du propriétaire avec le numéros de plaque?
 
Lol at people wanting this as a project!

First thing to do is rip out that carb'd v12 and put an LS V8 in or BMW straight 6. Although later models did have FI after 76 I believe a Bosch licensed system built by Lucas! Actually that car is full of Lucas goodness
 
That's what I'm saying, it's still a sexy looking car so just gut the entire thing and just use the shell. Put a real engine in it, a full interior, modern brakes and suspension, etc

Because it will cost way to much IMO and you still have a car that will handle like poop. Also just because that car looks "clean" doesn't mean it is. British cars loved to rust from the inside out and those cars loved to rot at suspension attachment points.

I'd much rather have an XK8 coupe . Sure still a terrible car but it's sorta modern and looks good
