Description for Jaguar E-Type 1965

1965 Jaguar XKE Roadster Series I Jaguar Rancho Mirage and indiGO Classic Cars proudly offer this magnificent 1965 Jaguar E-Type (XK-E) Roadster 4. 2L Series I with just 45. 25 miles. This is Chassis Serial Number 1E12494. featuring a beautiful refinish in Glasurit #JAG-303 (Carmen Red) paint over a beautiful Tan interior with chrome wire wheels. This is a proper. numbers-matching example with its original 265hp 4. 2L DOHC Inline 6-cylinder engine #7E7788-9 and fully synchromesh 4-speed manual gearbox #EJ6985. The 4. 2 is the most sought after E-Type in the world due to it's increase in power from previous years. while maintaining it's iconic features(glass-covered headlights. small "mouth" opening at the front. signal lights and tail-lights above bumpers and exhaust tips under the number plate in the rear). The 4. 2 version of the XK engine still produced 265hp and a top speed of 150mph like previous years. but an increase in torque from 240 to 283 lb-ft gave the car a significant power boost from the 3. 8. The 4. 2 version of the XK engine was accompanied with a handful of other upgrades throughout the car including a fully syncromesh transmission. a new Laycock-Hausserman clutch. a revised engine cooling system. and a new alternator to replace the generator. The 4. 2 became superior to the 3. 8 inside and out by also coming with more comfortable seats as well as improved braking and electrical systems. There were only a total of 17. 20 4. 2's produced with only 6. 49 OTS (Open Two Seater) models produced. Jaguar of Rancho Mirage and indiGO Classic Cars are members of the indiGO Auto Group.
