Hi John, thank you for your nice feedback. I think Nick is the happiest man on earth. He found his dream car and is enjoying it with his two boys. 😄 Lovely car that is. But Nick is also someone who is appreciating it as he was patient and well informed. Hope, it helps others when it comes to buying an E Type.
Hi Jukka, many thanks for watching and your feedback. I know you already have an E Type but I hope it will help others to approach their dream car. The flat floor we found is a stunning example with so much originality. It ended up in good hands.
Great discussion. Unfortunately I did not follow the advice to see the car in person before buying and will soon find out if reality matches the photos! I did however learn as much as possible over several years before buying.. Thanks for another excellent video.
@@timothyrogstad5577Well the car was even better than the photos and video. The seller was a great guy who had the car for many years. It is totally rust free and unrestored 3.8 . Shipped it to the UK and drove it home from the port 150 miles without any problems. Love my first e type. Now just looking to make gradual minor improvements without destroying originality.
Super Storie mit alle den Risiken und Lösungen für einen E-Type-Traum zu erfüllen. Danke für die Infos. Ich wünsche dem neuen Besitzer viel Spass und Freude am Alten.
Hi Gianni, Nick is a real enthusiast, but I was really im pressed about the workshop carrfranco.it and the Jaguar Shop www.jackclassics.com . Did you know them?

Opalescent, blue with blue interior and gunmetal, grey red interior are for me best Series 1 E culminations by far, don’t get me wrong opalescent Green with Tan suede interior is nice also but not like the colours I said. 😂 I remember early 80s, as a young black kid travelling around my father, Fred, a BOXING promoter from early 70s to Mid 90s I used to travel around UK picking up Parts for his series 1 E 4.2 Roadster 67, I had learned so much of a kid growing up about these cars. I remember when they were £2,000 to buy 🤣 seriously just imagine back in them days, there was loads of them seriously, South London North London eastlondon they were about remember buying a genuine factory hardtop £350 soft I had an unbelievable childhood experience on Jaguar E no one can’t tell me nothing about them. I still have the original heritage certificate for that car but sadly the car is gone now. Have big regrets because it was part of my dad, not only that my childhood should’ve kept it, but Mum wanted it out the garage because it was a sitting there for years on axle stands covered up we sold it. I just wish I had it today. The body on it was unbelievable when I say solid solid solid, no no rust and I think I should know about Etype If I had it today to make that car as it should be when it came out, the Browns Lane factory £85,000. Only thing I didn’t like about it, it was Carmen Red. if I want to find the car I can find it through the registration check I know it’s somewhere up in the north of England I may do one day, one thing we do know it is back on the road.
Great to read your feedback, it tells many others to keep their cars. How often did I hear, "I wish I had not sold the car." or, "I had the chance to buy one cheap but for some reason I did not". Does that sound familiar to some of you? These good old things do not return in the future.They are original and old and you preserve them, or you just struggle to find one. Did you ever see a cheap classic Maserati or Ferrari? Those days are long gone. Next will be the E Type S1, especially the good original early cars.
Know exactly how you feel. In the very early 80's, whilst visiting a mate, i stopped to look at a coupe in a garage opposite his house. It was about £4200. Didn't get it, as i wanted a soft-top. Silly me. Then, in mid 80's, came across a 63 pagoda at about the same price. Went to Cardiff, saw it, drove it, bought it. Sold a few years later, regretted it, then found a 280 pagoda in US for around $8. Got it shipped over, sorted. A few yrs later, decided to go to uni, so sold it to pay for my degree. Got just over 12k. I now see prices for these between 70-130k. Silly me!

Hallo Maikel, für die die es sich leisten können sicherlich die beste Möglichkeit einen Etype zu kaufen.Ich musste den schweren Weg gehen und 3000 Stunden Arbeit investieren um einen neuwertigen Etype mein Eigen zu nennen.Mittlerweile hab ich 3 Etype hier stehen.Der E-Virus hat mich im Griff.
Hallo ..kenne leider Deinen Namen nicht......, also erstes finde ich es super das Due den E Virus hast. Als ich meinen ersten kaufte sagte mir ein gewisser Herr Stromski: "E Types kann man nie genug haben". Ich dachte der spinnt, nun weiß ich aber was er meinte. Ist auch schon viele Jahre her. Nick, der aus dem Video, hat lange recherchiert und ist am Ende zu dem Entschluss gekommen, da er ja selber kein Techniker ist, das es für ihn auf jeden Fall günstiger ist einen fertigen Wagen zu kaufen und sich dabei bestmöglich beraten zu lassen. Bei seinem Auto ist völlig klar, den bekommt man in Eigenregie nicht günstiger, nicht besser und erst recht nicht schneller hin. Er wollte den Wagen ja auch jetzt schon fahren. Welche Alternativen hat man da. Versuch mal einen vernünftigen 61iger FHC im Originalzustand zu finden. Und wenn es Dein erster E ist, dann weiß man evtl. auch nicht welche Teile damals verbaut wurden. 3.000 Stunden ist schon viel, sind die Teile darin schon eingepreist oder kommen die und das Fahrzeug noch on top? Hast Du denn Werkzeuge für die Zylinderbuchsen oder Planfräsen? Kardanwelle auswuchten? Muss ja alles auch irgendwo hin und wieder zurück. Aber egal. Welche Fahrzeuge hast Du denn? Würde mich interessieren. Herzliche Grüße. Maikel Habe mich über dein Feedback gefreut.
@@JaguarEType Die 3000 Stunden sind verteilt auf 9 Jahre.Alles selbst gemacht ausser der Lackierung.Den Motorblock und Kopf habe ich zum Planen und Aufbohren zum Instandsetzer gebracht.Spezialwerkzeuge hab ich nur für das Abdrücken der hinteren Antriebswelle und einige selbstgemachte .Der Gutachter bescheinigte diesem Fahrzeug Note 2+ Es ist ein 1967er Serie 1,5 FHC , zu sehen auf xkedata mit der Nr. 34884 Wir haben noch ein unrestauriertes Serie 2 Roadster von 1969. Seit letztem Jahr haben wir ein 1963er 3,8 FHC ,ein Unfallwagen der seit ca 1969 beim Erstbesitzer eingelagert war .War damals ein Totalschaden, glücklicherweise nicht verschrottet worden. Mehr als 50000 km hat der nicht gelaufen.Der Motor und Getriebe waren noch nie ausgebaut worden.Technisch gesehen gut.Muss ein spektakulärer Unfall gewesen sein,mit Überschlag und abgerissener Motorhaube.Wenn du magst kann ich dir Fotos von dieser Zeitkapsel zusenden.

You need to look at Mathewson car auction Pickering England 2 plus 2 in excellent condition £35000
Could not find it.
As an FType owner--I’m smitten
Yes it's a 2 + 2 Nick's head is not hitting
What a great 2+2 that is. I am loving it as well. Such a great joy to go on a trip.
Im even half comfortable in a flat floor, or at least I convince myself that I am.
Style, early features etc over comfort I guess:)
This reminds me, I need to buy a lotto ticket.
Im 34 and an E type is my dream car. Where is your business based?
