1973 Jaguar E-Type for Sale in Germany

This Jaguar E-Type Series III was first registered in January 1973, in the United States, and came to Germany in 2010. Its owner then spent about three years on a nut-and-bolt rebuild: the body was stripped back and rebuilt, and the engine, both axles, the brakes and the ignition were overhauled. It came out of that rebuild in Light Blue, a colour of its own decade, over dark blue leather with grey carpets and a light grey fabric hood, with chrome-rimmed dials and extra insulation between the engine bay and the cabin. The work was aimed at driving it: an additional thermostatic oil cooler, a reinforced radiator, fan, water pump and alternator, GAZ coilovers, braided brake lines, a five-speed Getrag gearbox with a reinforced clutch and a lightened flywheel, a limited-slip differential, and chrome wire wheels on knock-off hubs. A Classic Data appraiser graded it 1- in December 2025.

The Jaguar E-Type uses the 5,343 cc V12, naturally aspirated, fed by four Zenith carburettors, rated at 272 PS (203 kW), and 0 to 100 km/h in under seven seconds, with a four-speed manual gearbox, or an automatic on request, and rear-wheel drive.

FAQ

This Jaguar E-Type in the European market

Is this Jaguar E-Type priced above or below the European market?

At €98,000, it sits below the median of €146,243 for the 9 Jaguar E-Type advertised in Europe in 2026. 11% of them are advertised for less. Asking prices are not transaction prices, and specification differences explain much of the spread.

Can this Jaguar E-Type be bought in Germany and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in Hessisch Oldendorf, Germany. The dealer has not stated whether the price is quoted gross, net of VAT for export, or under the margin scheme. 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 does the mileage of this Jaguar E-Type compare?

42,300 km recorded, against a median of 50,192 km across the Jaguar E-Type advertised in Europe in 2026. It is therefore among the lower-mileage cars currently listed. Service history and previous owners are not published on LUSSO and should be confirmed with the selling dealer.

Which other Jaguar E-Type are priced closest to this one?

a 1974 car in the United Kingdom at €116,940, and a 1971 car in Sweden at €67,500. 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, and how does a purchase work?

Exclusive Car Family, a professional dealer in Hessisch Oldendorf, Germany. 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 be inspected before purchase?

The car is at Hessisch Oldendorf, Germany, 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: LUSSO does not publish these and cannot confirm them.

Is this Jaguar E-Type still available?

LUSSO republishes what the selling dealer advertises, and a car in demand is sometimes reserved or sold before the dealer updates its own site. Confirm current availability with Exclusive Car Family before travelling or committing funds. An enquiry sent from this page reaches that dealer directly.
