Three of the 12 E-Type Jags on offer from one seller on Ebay
A seller on Ebay is offering 12 Jaguar E-Types – in need of some TLC – at a start price of $200k
If you ask anyone what the most iconic car of the ’60s was most people - we guess – would suggest the Jaguar E-Type. It seems to epitomise all the was impressive about the decade and – despite now being 50 years old – it still stands up as a stylish and desirable car.
Not only is the E-type stylish and iconic it’s having new life breathed back in to it by companies like Eagle, who build E-Types to order from restoration projects and to a standard that surpasses the way they ever came out of British Leyland (or whatever the name of the company was that built them at the time - there were several iterations of the BL Brand, unfortunately).
And perhaps the success of Eagle makes you think there’s a few bob to be made by restoring E-Types? If you do you’re almost almost certainly wrong (classic car restoration is usually a financial black-hole), but if you’re convinced and really want a head start – or a heap of spares – one E-Type owner in the US is selling a collection of 12 dirty, dusty, unloved and seemingly uncared for E-Types on Ebay.
So if you have a few bob burning a hole in your pockets – and a desire to restore a dozen iconic E-types – jump over to Ebay to make a bid. Starting point is $200k. But that only works out at a bit over £10k each. Plus shipping to get them home. Plus import duty. Plus VAT.
Maybe it’s not a good idea after all.
