Conceived and developed as an open sports car, the Jaguar E-Type debuted at Conceived and developed as an open sports car, the Jaguar E-Type debuted at the Geneva Salon in March 1961 in fixed-head coupé form. The car caused a sensation - spontaneous applause breaking out at the unveiling - with its instantly classic lines and a 150mph top speed. The design owed much to that of the racing D-Type, a monocoque tub forming the main structure while a tubular spaceframe extended forwards to support the engine, which was the 3.8-litre, triple-carburettor, ’S’ unit first offered as an option on the preceding XK150. Aerodynamically, the coupé was superior to the roadster and the better Grand Tourer, enjoying as it did a marginally higher top speed and the considerable convenience of a generously sized luggage platform accessed via the side-hinged rear door. Its engine aside, only in terms of its transmission did the E-Type represent no significant advance over the XK150, whose durable four-speed Moss gearbox it retained.

This highly desirable ‘Series 1’ E-Type coupé was delivered new to Jaguar Cars, New York, USA and has covered only 26,313 miles (approximately 42,300 kilometres) from new. Sold new to Mr Masko Laninick, it is one of the last of 5,872 left-hand drive Series 1 coupés built. The accompanying Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate confirms matching numbers and records the original colour combination as Opalescent Silver Grey with red interior. From 1990 onwards the E-Type remained with one owner in Kansas until 2016 when it was sold by Gullwing Motor Cars, New York to a prominent Belgian private collector. In 2018 the car changed hands again, passing to the current vendor, another prominent Belgian collector.

The vendor advises us that this car has been restored to a very good standard, which is confirmed by the evaluation carried out by the respected Belgian Classic Car expert Mr Gert Beets. Mr Beets concludes: “This car has been restored to a very good level. It is an original left-hand drive E-type Series I Fixed Head Coupe in quite original mechanical configuration.” The car also has a FIVA passport (issued 27th December 2019) categorising it as 'A/3’ (A = original; 3 = restored).

Finished in red with tan leather interior, the E-Type is said to drive extremely well and is described by the vendor as ready to be enjoyed. Accompanying additional documentation includes a manufacturer’s brochure, sundry maintenance invoices, Belgian registration papers, and the aforementioned Heritage Certificate.

'For those who value engineering finesse and high quality construction, it’s alone in the field,’ enthused Road & Track magazine, while its manufacturer considered the 280 SL, 'a Grand Tourer in the traditional sense’ and 'a unique combination of sports car performance and saloon car comfort (a Mercedes-Benz saloon naturally).’

These attributes help explain the 280 SL’s phenomenal success, particularly in the all-important North American market where the optional automatic transmission was considered an essential feature by the majority of customers. The fact that it looked like 'sex on wheels’ helped enormously too, of course. The 280 SL’s essential user friendliness broadened its appeal beyond the traditional sports car-enthusiast market, and many celebrities and film stars owned 280 SLs.

The last of a popular and extremely successful line begun with the 230 SL of 1963, the Mercedes-Benz 280 SL was introduced in 1967 powered by a new 2.8-litre six-cylinder engine that produced 180bhp, 20 horsepower more than the preceding 250 SL’s. The 280 SL’s 200km/h top speed was no greater but it was significantly quicker off the mark, its 0-100km/h time of 10 seconds being a whole second better than its predecessor’s.

Autocar was full of praise for the 280 SL’s effortless performance: 'Those going abroad will be pleased to know that the 280 SL can sustain 160km/h with ease, and still have a good bit in hand for surging up to 120mph when traffic and conditions permit. All the time the engine is smooth and it has a sweet song to its exhaust note, which starts as a deep throb and builds up to a busy hum at maximum revs.’

Christened 'Pagoda’ after their distinctive cabin shape - devised by French designer and classic car enthusiast, Paul Bracq - these SL models were amongst the best-loved sports-tourers of their day and remain highly sought after by collectors.

This unmolested and highly original example was bought by the current Belgian owner in 2005 through a dealer from the first lady owner in Lausanne, Switzerland it is believed. The car has clearly been well looked-after; the doors close excellently - just like new - and we believe it has only had a re-spray. Other than that, this SL is highly original and in very good condition, while the vendor advises us it is in full working order. The car is offered with Swiss paperwork and proof of EU taxes paid. https://flic.kr/p/TM57K5
