Rob Hubbard, senior specialist at Bonhams, said: “This is a fantastic example of a 1965 Jaguar E-Type Series 1, which has been carefully looked after since its original purchase and is in excellent condition. We are expecting much interest from both national and international clients, particularly as a result of the E-Type’s provenance.”
