This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Classic Sale at the NEC Classic Motor Show 2026 on Sunday the 15th of November, NEC, Birmingham, B40 1NT. Estimated price: GBP 45,000 - GBP 55,000.

This, right-hand drive Series 2 Fixed Head Coupé, was supplied new by P J Evans and still carries its original registration, 'POL 70G'.

According to its Jaguar Daimler Vehicle Information Sheet, the car was originally finished in Cream with a black leather interior piped in white

It later formed part of the E-Type stable of the late John Foss of Ashey Road Garage, before being laid up in 1975 with 50,000 miles recorded, remaining off the road for more than three decades

Extensively restored between 2005 and 2008, involving over 1,700 hours of labour. Corroded panels were replaced with new zinc-coated metal, a replacement bonnet was repaired and fitted, defective components were renewed and new wheels and tyres were fitted

The 4.2-litre XK unit benefitted from a cylinder head rebuild by marque specialists, Twyford Moors, in 2022, and was fitted with 123 electronic ignition and a new battery at a cost of over £5,300

Sensible upgrades include 6-inch wide wheels, poly-bushed suspension and a stainless steel exhaust system

Further recent attention by Mortons Engineering included removal of an aftermarket bonnet grille, brake servo control valve repair, steering-rack play addressesd and a new left-hand upper ball joint and indicator stalk fitted

They also completed a full service and detail, with a fresh MOT passed in October 2026

Accompanied by its V5C, a handbook reprint, and invoices dating back to 2012, this is a well-documented and thoroughly sorted Series 2 coupé, ready to be enjoyed.
