@markrahner2065 Many tanks for that interesting info. So maybe those I have seen were already repros. Will investigate further and put the correct ones in. You will find out further ahead. Keep watching 👍

@nickvocht3417 Hi Nick, it is all part of the game and we all are facing these issues. Best thing is to buy a restored, running car as you did. Nobody can imagine how many pitfalls a restoration has. Just encouraging everyone to not give up and you are not alone.

@@bradley7240 Thanks for watching 👀

Hi Chris, thank you for your good input. You might actually be right. I had a NOS Con Baines seal, still with the number tag on it, but god knows how old and I think it is really hard. I will try a brand new seal and as Dieter commented heat, I will also heat it up in boiling water. Now waiting for a new screen. Will keep you posted. But both tips are very useful to all of us. Thanks 👍🏻

Hi Frank, fully understand you. Do not force yourself as to easily things might go wrong and you get frustrated. Take a day or two off, start to feel guilty and start with new, fresh ideas and energy. You will catch up, instead of working for days and not achieving anything. We have all been there.

Many thanks for watching and feedback. Much appreciated. 👍

Good question, 👍, I would think 1-2 mm in total, each orientation. Means less room for the screen.

Hi Paul, I have seen the video. Many thanks also for your mail. It's always good if some others pick up the E Type topic. It shows there is an interest.

@@JaguarEType Enjoy Stoneleigh and hope you find some spares.

Sure, fun is always guaranteed due to my friends and the pub crawl the day before. Usually also some rare parts are found. 💪

Hi Goeff, (Mr. Blofeld), were talking about you and Goodwood again. Looking forward. Thanks for watching and feedback. 🙏

Thanks for watching and feedback. 👍🏻

Hi John, I have to look up the Glas price as I bought them in a complete set. They do have two different product lines, Heritage and Standard. Can not tell you the exact price as I bought several sets. Might see you in Stoneleigh next week?

@@JaguarEType Hi Maikel . Unfortunately l'm having to concentrate on my private life for know . But let's hope all works out for me .... cheers

Herrlich oder? Beim nächsten hilft es dann bestimmt wieder. Viele Spaß beim Fahren.

ja meine Frau liebt den Wagen weil er soviel Platz hat zum laden wenn die Rückbank umgeklappt ist.😂

Das selbe hier 😂. Aber auch zum Schlafen vorne 😎

Many thanks Nick, I see you are studying :-)

Best drivable car on earth

@johnnyboy1586 I think that is usually done. At least on my cars. However, the body is rotated after dipping and cleaning.

@colinwheeler2912 I am not exactly sure what hoses you are talking about. On the S1, there is a small breather hose from the fuel tank to the inlet stud ( high up in horizontal position pointing to the rear of the car) and another overflow hose from the stud next to the inlet down to the trunk floor. You see one hole from the top when you open the fuel filler flap and hole from underneath.3rd hose is the short, wide fuel inlet hose you mentioned. Can not think of anything else in that area. Hope this helps. Good luck 👍

YES, the red MOTIF on the MOTIF BAR was standard to all S1 cars. Thanks for watching 👍🏻

All good, I am a fan of the 2+2 and they are the much better touring car when you on a road trip for several weeks as we are. Anyway, not enough 2+2 were made.

@@JaguarEType If I get the chance I will go back to get another 993 Turbo ..... Now that's a real sports car !!!

Hi Nick 👋 Goodwood is definitely a fixed date 📅 for you. You better book something know. It is just aaaaaaamazing. Your family will love it. See you there next year.

Will definitely have a look 👍

Hello David and Lucy, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in your charming house and of course your hospitality. Goodwood was a highlight and we are still talking about it. Thanks to your boots, we could manage the mud and dirt, it is part of the show I guess. Did you recognize the T Type at the end of the video? What a great time we had. Thank you very much. It was an unplanned, wonderful and unforgettable trip. 🙏

I did indeed spot the “E” pot- it was fun having you both to stay - just a shame I was unwell - operation now scheduled October 28th!

Wow, do you know him? He is such a great character. Shame we only had a couple of hours, but we started a tradition 🥂

No, I know of him , but not personally...He is a well known local businessman.. Did you know him before Goodwood?

"Characters" are commonplace in Ireland, North or south! 😅

Are you coming next year? It is great fun.

@@JaguarEType Hi Maikel, yes I will, never been before although I have watched the videos for years.

You will be loving it. The atmosphere, perfect organisation, everything really clean plus all the engine sound and spectacular racing. A must go every year.

Richard, I think, next time we need to show up together again 😄. Thanks for the additional input.

Hello Dieter, I thought you disappeared 😆. It was our first GOODWOOD, and certainly not the last. So much fun despite the weather. Did you see all the cars in the public car park < 66. They came from everywhere in Europe. Brave people and great enthusiast. Enjoy your holiday, see you later.

What do you mean by "who is this"?

Hi Luke, many thanks for watching. There are so many people like David. Honestly I had never seen the car before and was surprised to see such a composed car. Final bis was 150.000 GBP, hence did not reach the reserve but might have sold after the auction as the car came from Australia. So, fee and import taxes might apply as well. But as David said, not a collectors car and we did not measure the paint nor did we start the engine. I would like to know if it really sold and what the new owner really found 🤔 . Maybe he is responding here.

Hallo Juri, lange nichts von Dir gehört. Danke für Dein Feedback. Ich hoffe es geht Dir gut und wir sehen uns bald mal wieder. Viele Grüße

Many would not, but how brave are those who did. They deserve our utmost respect. I enjoyed the footage round the public parking and the talks with the E Type owners. " Road cathedral " as the young french man with his old 4.2 said. Good to see younger people using their cars what they are made for. 💪

@@JaguarEType I am all for that 100% exactly what my father did with his 4.2 Roadster Rain and everything for me can’t do the mud I used to drive my 280 pagoda sometimes in the rain didn’t bother me, but I wanna driven it through no mud

@paulmarriner5906 Yes, I could save him, because he asked my help. How many don't? Sorry for the bad sound, the speaker were a pain and we partly lost our micro.

It's a shame there are people who "restore" cars at this level, and yet the old saying of let the buyer beware is STILL applicable. This type of action is that of a second hand car salesman 😢

@@JC-he7yk It can be two or more reasons. Usually the restorer does not know his job and is hoping the owner will not find out. Or the owner says, get it done as cheap as possible, it will be for sale anyway. With these rare cars, money should be spent wisely or not at all. We all see the result now in the very low price for messed up restorations compared with the high end blue chip cars which are indeed very, very are and valuable. You just need to know how to distinguish them. Usually an auction house is interested in the fee and usually can not be the expert in every single car they are offering.

You met Geoff McConville optician from Belfast...😂 my home town.!

A wonderful world. 👍

You need to see me in real.

@@JaguarEType Then what happens ? You don’t turn into a pumpkin do you ?

When you see things in real, you understand things better and keep them in your mind.

@jpkatz1435 sold for 184.000 in Paris but returned and did not sell at the next auction in Monaco. 🤔🤷‍♂️

@crissignori7482 I do not think that is needed. Some few people do ktl dipping but I think good primer and waxing is enough. Should last a generation.

@@JaguarEType but I want it to be just like a cat …. They say a cat has nine lives.

@calumanderson6738 Thank you for your comment 🙏 I really like to read such feedback. Let keep our dreams alive (on the road).

@@petervoortman3912 you are very welcome to watch the other videos. 👍

Good day John, many thanks again for watching 👀 my content and, of course, for your feedback. 🙏. The workshop is extremely nice, and you can breathe E Type air. Fantastico 😍 Italian language is very handy. But I do not speak Chinese 😅😂. So it is all relative. Hope you also enjoyed the 6 minutes of vintage 1968 movie at the end of my video. See you soo somewhere in UK 🇬🇧 I guess. GOODWOOD or STONELEIGH

Thank you for your feedback. I find there is a difference in price between the UK and European market. Especially if you are trying to sell to Europe, the Brexit certainly did not help. A very original car, especially the early ones, is highly demanded and usually not offered it public. These cars (call them "blue chip") command a completely different price compared to a hurry up, passionless, reproduction restoration. The early, collectable cars will take the same route as the Ferrari Dino. Time has come that more and more people do understand the difference. However, there is still a low budget market for E Types that at first glance do look ok, but will require a substantial amount of money and a professional workshop to fix it. Not what everyone has at hand. Do not think that those cars, sold or offered for little money, are a bargain just because they have the E Type shape. It is the number of countless small details that make the difference between a valuable and a trouble car. Buying an E Type is a minefield, and you better make sure to have an expert with you and become fully aware of what you are dealing with. For many people, it is more convenient to sell a car cheap rather than spending a fortune to fix it. How many restorations stalled just because the costs exploded? 🤯 You can contact me for more information if required. maikel.lemke@etypes1.com

@3ducs 😄 🤣, sounds very familiar. Those people are everywhere. And most of the time, their gold becomes worthless. Might be worth asking Giacomo if he is aware of a nice Alfa. Thank you for the feedback. 👍

Giacomo, entirely my pleasure. Your passion for the E Type is very evident and needs to be promoted. Plus, your more than welcoming attitude just deserves the right and equally pleasent customers.
