Jaguar E-Type 3.8 Serie 1 Cabriolet for Sale in Germany

The E-Type arrived at Geneva in March 1961 and changed what a fast car was expected to cost. The Series 1 3.8 is the first and purest of them: covered headlamps, the flat floors and external bonnet latches of the earliest cars, a 3,8-litre XK straight-six of 265 bhp, and independent rear suspension when almost nothing else had it.

Enzo Ferrari is supposed to have called it the most beautiful car ever made. Whether he did or not, Jaguar sold it for roughly half what a comparable Ferrari cost, and that was the point.

This car is a Series 1 3.8 roadster showing 6,000 kilometres. AutoSL specialises in this period and describes the car as a first-series example.

It is offered from AutoSL in Neuss at €169,890.

AutoSL works from Neuss, on the Rhine, and its stock is almost entirely pre-war and post-war classics rather than modern cars: the shop understands what a matching-numbers E-Type is and what it is not. The price is quoted for the German market; export terms are available.

The seller lists 1 items of equipment on this car, reproduced in full below. Among them: Top-Zustand. The technical table above it sets out what the seller states about the car itself: 6 000 km on the odometer. The car is with AutoSL GmbH in Neuss.

The Series 1 3.8 is the E-Type as it was launched, and the details that identify it are the ones collectors pay for: covered headlamps under glass, flat floors, external bonnet latches, a welded louvre panel and the Moss four-speed gearbox without synchromesh on first. The 3,8-litre XK straight-six is the engine from the D-type detuned for the road, and independent rear suspension (a fully independent wishbone and coil arrangement carried in its own subframe) was almost unheard of on a production car in 1961. AutoSL specialises in this period and sells from Neuss, on the Rhine.

This Jaguar E-Type 3.8 Serie 1 Cabriolet is a used car showing 6,000 km.

The asking price is €169,890. The car is located in Neuss, Germany.

FAQ

This Jaguar E-Type 3.8 Serie 1 Cabriolet in the European market

Is this Jaguar priced above or below the European market?

At €169,890, it sits above the median of €152,040 for the 19 Jaguar advertised in Europe in 2026. 53% 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 Germany and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in Neuss, 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 compare?

6,000 km recorded, against a median of 20,613 km across the Jaguar 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 are priced closest to this one?

a 1963 car in Germany at €174,890, 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 3.8 Serie 1 Cabriolet, and how does a purchase work?

AutoSL GmbH, a professional dealer in Neuss, 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 3.8 Serie 1 Cabriolet be inspected before purchase?

The car is at Neuss, 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 3.8 Serie 1 Cabriolet 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 AutoSL GmbH before travelling or committing funds. An enquiry sent from this page reaches that dealer directly.
