The video footage is just as beautiful as the immaculate restoration. I saw my first E Type Jaguar in June of 1962 in Duluth, Minnesota in the USA. Only one other time in my 68 years, can I recall a vehicle so captivating that the moment was forever etched into my brain. Thank you for your splendid efforts to keep these wonderful Jaguars on the road for the public to enjoy.

A breathtaking car and a gorgeous restoration. Silver with a red interior - perfection!

[@RAF71chingachgook]

E-types should NOT be painted a metallic color! Except silver. With a red interior. :)

Owning my 2/68 E Type OTS for 35+ years, firing up the engine is always an exciting event & then slipping it into first.........

[@stevepitts18]

A beautiful car, restored by true craftsmen, to grace our roads for another 50 + years

Beautiful job........she can roar for another 50 years plus

[@retrorock3261]

Mud flaps on the rear fender wells was a good idea! That gravel would've chewed up that rear fender in no time. Thought he opener her up on that gravel driveway before hitting the road but after a second look it was only the video sped up. Smart...

beautiful work beautiful car

[@ivyfalls1]

I have 2 1962 XKEs, one OTS and one coupe. . .sometimes I look at the coupe and say it is the most beautiful and sometimes I look at the OTS and think the same. It's like dating two gorgeous women. Nice problem to have.

[@stevewoodward7850]

Wow..wow and thrice wow........lucky person who owns that car!!

[@happyknightinternationalma116]

One word...........Beautiful

[@louislazarus9253]

For all those people who insist on "original" or "as it left the factory", I submit this instead. Why anyone would prefer scratches in the paint, weatherstripping cement leaking out past the torn factory weatherstripping, shabby leather interior bits, scratched glass, rusty metal and all that other stuff people call PATINA these days is beyond me. If you're going to own and drive a car as beautiful as this, why wouldn't you want it as nice as possible? These guys did a fantastic job in restoring this Jag to better than factory. It's a car for heaven's sake. It's meant to be driven. Sure, it's a piece of history but if you're lucky enough to own something like this and to get to drive it anytime you want, it doesn't make sense to cruise around in a car that simply looks old, tired and beaten. Get over ORIGINAL. It's a stupid idea and it really only means the instant it left the factory. Once it gets scratched, dented or shows signs of use in any way at all, it really isn't original anymore. Is it? It's used. Cudos to the folks who restored this beautiful machine. Great job. Enjoy driving this wonderful car for a long, long time.

Ive no words 🙏🇬🇧

[@leytonthomas2043]

Enzo Ferrari was right..........."That's the most beautiful car I have ever seen"

[@TheMightyThim]

Great craftmanship! May I ask how much you charge for such a paintjob? Assuming you get a relativly straigh metal chassy that needs no welding.

[@jumpfortyfour9965]

super car . ware is the front number plate ?

[@agx502]

Lover it, except for those mudflaps!!!!!

[@johndavey72]

Is this the car that Is now wearing the registration XKE 420 C? Is there a reason why the front number plate mounting holes have been left, it indicates that this is an import. Sorry! I spoke with the owner at Killerton and l know how much it cost to paint. It looked very nice indeed. I did point out that you could see that the opening panels had been left on during the paint process to ensure the pattern stayed true . The owner said they had not! So, maybe this is not the car l saw.

[@MultiDesignGuy]

Outstanding!!! I have just bought a 1:8 etype model what colour is that...please🙏

[@restoshackdevon3875]

The colour is Opalescent silver grey bit we have reduced the green tinter by 50%

[@fredgien]

The coupe is in my opinion more beautiful than the convertible; do you agree?

[@nysun6293]

I do! I would consider myself privileged if I ever had the chance to drive never mind own either though.

[@jagitmax]

Owner drives the resto 'd e-type in GRAVEL drive way, must have more money than sense.
