1971 Jaguar E-Type Series III 2+2 V12 Automatic

This 1971 Jaguar E-Type Series III 2+2 is a left-hand-drive example finished in British Racing Green over a brown leather interior and powered by a 5.3-liter V12 paired with a 3-speed automatic transmission. As part of the final and most refined iteration of the legendary E-Type lineup, the Series III introduced a longer wheelbase 2+2 body, offering increased interior space and improved grand touring capability while preserving the car’s hallmark performance and aesthetics.

The V12 engine, factory-rated at 276 horsepower, features four Zenith-Stromberg carburetors and is backed by power-assisted steering and four-wheel disc brakes. This example is also equipped with air conditioning and rides on polished wire wheels. The exterior presents in its correct British Racing Green, with brightwork, glass, and trim in clean condition consistent with a well-preserved driver. The interior retains its original brown leather upholstery with matching carpets and a period-correct wood-rim steering wheel.

Now showing just over 35,600 miles, this E-Type is said to be a two-owner car and remains in largely original condition with prior maintenance records included. It is described as mechanically sound and well-suited for both weekend drives and long-distance touring. Offered with a clean title, this E-Type Series III represents a classic blend of British style, V12 power, and elegant usability.
