The seller states that it has been fully restored and comes from an enthusiast's collection. It was first registered in January 1966, and an expert appraisal was carried out in June 2017.

The car is located in Paris, France.

FAQ

This Jaguar E-Type Series 1 4.2 in the European market

Is this Jaguar priced above or below the European market?

At €149,900, it sits above the median of €103,114 for the 69 Jaguar advertised in Europe in 2026. 75% of them are advertised for less. Asking prices are not transaction prices, and specification differences explain much of the spread.

Can this Jaguar be bought in France and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in Paris, France. The dealer quotes it as: VAT included. Cross-border purchase is normal for this kind of car, but the documentation, the certificate of conformity, transport and the registration rules of the destination country all have to be settled with the selling dealer first.

How much did this Jaguar E-Type Series 1 4.2 cost new?

The manufacturer's base list price was €2,325 in the United Kingdom, excluding options. This car is advertised at €149,900, 6347% above that figure. A list price is the launch price of the version without options, so a heavily specified car left the factory above it, and it says nothing about what the car is worth today. That 1965 list price is converted to euros with no adjustment for inflation.

How does the mileage of this Jaguar compare?

9,000 km recorded, against a median of 34,999 km across the Jaguar advertised in Europe in 2026. It is therefore among the lower-mileage cars currently listed. Service records and ownership details should be checked against the documents held by the selling dealer.

Which other Jaguar are priced closest to this one?

a 1958 car in the Netherlands at €149,500, and a 1958 car in the United Kingdom at €152,040. Observed in 2026. Comparing them means putting model year, mileage, factory options and the VAT basis side by side before the price itself.

Who is selling this Jaguar E-Type Series 1 4.2, and how does a purchase work?

La Maison Pilote, a professional dealer in Paris, France. LUSSO lists the car and passes enquiries to that dealer; the inspection, the negotiation, the invoice and the transfer of ownership all take place directly between the buyer and the dealer. LUSSO does not hold stock, take deposits or act as an intermediary in payment.

Can this Jaguar E-Type Series 1 4.2 be inspected before purchase?

The car is at Paris, France, and an inspection is arranged with the selling dealer. Buyers based in another country commonly appoint an independent inspector or a marque specialist rather than travel. Ask the dealer for the service record, the number of previous owners and any accident history, with supporting documents for the information stated in the listing.
