AutoHunter Spotlight: Single-Owner 1969 Jaguar XKE

AutoHunter Featured This is a single owner 1969 Jaguar XKE 4.2 Coupe. In case you’re curious, it’s sold as the XKE in the United States, but elsewhere as the Jaguar E-Type fixed-head coupe. Power comes from a DOHC 4.2-liter inline-six engine, paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Features include extremely low miles (17,847), A/C, factory Philips AM/FM radio and more. Finished in Cream Silver Blue paint with a black leather interior, this particular Series 2 comes from the selling dealer and features original owner-dealer correspondence, service records since new, Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate and clear ownership.

The creamy, silvery-blue hue nicely captures Jaguar’s classic styling. Other exterior features include a power antenna, chrome driver’s side mirror, hood vents, front and rear bumper guards, chrome headlight bucket bezels and dual exhaust tips.

The 15-inch wire wheels are wrapped in Dunlop 185 radials.

The black leather interior features two buckets in the front and two seats in the rear, though don’t confuse this Jag with the 2+2 model, which has a longer wheelbase. The center console houses the transmission shifter. Notable options include air conditioning and original Philips AM/FM radio.

Instruments include a 160-mph speedometer, a 6,000-rpm tachometer, and gauges for oil pressure, coolant temperature, battery, and fuel. The odometer shows 17,847 miles, which is reportedly true.

Powering this XKE is a DOHC 4.2-liter inline-six engine rated at 265 horsepower when new. Fuel and air are supplied via twin Zenith-Stromberg carburetors. Power is harnessed via a four-speed manual.

The chassis system features front and rear independent suspension, plus four-wheel disc brakes and a dual exhaust system.

The auction for this Jaguar XKE 4.2 Coupe with 17,847 miles will end on Tuesday, November 19, 2024 at 12:00 PM (MST)
