West Coast Classics are proud to present an exceptional and very rare and virtually completely original apart from one repaint on a barn-fresh (garage really!) and rust free example of this coveted Series III 1971 Jaguar XKE 2+2 V12 automatic coupe and its original matching #'s (7S2106SA) 5.4L V12 engine with only 13,813 original miles in a most striking 'Silver' color with a 'Black' interior and carpets and factory air conditioning and power steering! This beauty also boasts its original steel wheels with Chrome Jaguar hubcaps, including its original spare in the trunk!
The Series III E-Type XKE Jaguar was built from late 1971-74 and was a continuation of its legendary 60's sports cars but now with a new V12 engine! To accommodate the larger powerplant, Jaguar used the 9" longer wheelbase previously used for the Series I and II 2+2 coupes. Body modifications also included a wider track with wider tires mounted on slotted wheels with disc wheel covers or optional wire wheels. These cars were fast with 0-60mph recorded in 7.5 seconds and a 15.4 second quarter mile!
This particular car has a documented original 13K miles and its exemplary condition clearly shows that at no time was any expense spared on this vehicle's preventive maintenance with its original matching #'s 5.4L V12 engine running as smooth as silk and the transmission shifts smoothly through all the gears. The car has no rust with the original floor boards and all the typical rust-prone areas very solid! The car shows no signs of any accidents of any kind and has a very straight body.
The car looks extremely impressive with its 'Silver' color paint with a lovely 'Black' interior with the door panels, dashboard, seats and carpets all in very fine condition throughout.
This is a rare opportunity to own a very striking and great daily driving example of an obviously always well maintained and always garaged and turn key ready 1971 Jaguar XKE V12 E-Type 2+2 Series III Coupe with only some 13K original miles in very fine condition throughout!
