1970 Jaguar XKE 2+2
Introducing this 1970 Jaguar XKE 2+2, featuring a matching-numbers engine and recently emerging from long-term ownership that dates back to 1976. Finished in British Racing Green with a matching green interior, this Series II E-Type retains many of the distinctive details that made the model one of the most recognizable British sports cars of its era. Offered as a project car, it presents an opportunity to bring a long-term-owned XKE back to the road while preserving its original character.
Highlights:
- Long-Term Ownership Since 1976
- Matching Numbers Engine
- Exterior Color: British Racing Green
- 4.2-Liter Inline-Six Engine
- Automatic Transmission
- Zenith-Stromberg Dual Carburetors
- Factory Power-Assisted Steering
- Front Wheel Disc Brakes
- Smiths Instrumentation
- Analog Clock
- 3-Spoke Wood Steering Wheel
- Chrome Bumpers with Overriders
- 15-Inch Wire Wheels with Pirelli Cinturato Tires
Power comes from Jaguar’s 4.2-liter inline-six engine, paired with an automatic transmission and dual Zenith-Stromberg carburetors. The Series II is equipped with factory power-assisted steering and front disc brakes, while the exterior showcases the E-Type’s unmistakable long, louvered clamshell bonnet, uncovered Marchal-branded headlights, chrome trim, chrome bumpers with overriders, and dual exhaust outlets. The car rides on 15-inch wire wheels fitted with vintage Pirelli Cinturato thin whitewall tires.
Inside, the cabin features bucket seats with headrests, a three-spoke wood steering wheel, Smiths instrumentation, a center console, manual-crank windows, glove box, Philips AM/FM push-button radio, and factory-style rocker switches. The matching green interior complements the British Racing Green exterior and gives the car a distinctly period-correct appearance.
The 2+2 version of the E-Type was introduced to provide additional interior space and rear seating while retaining the model’s unmistakable styling. Its longer wheelbase distinguishes it from the two-seat coupe and gives the car a slightly different proportion while maintaining the same signature E-Type design.
The E-Type’s styling has been widely recognized since its introduction in 1961, including the famous praise attributed to Enzo Ferrari, who reportedly called it “the most beautiful car ever made.” This 1970 Series II 2+2 offers an interesting combination of long-term ownership, a matching-numbers engine, desirable British Racing Green paint, and its original-style interior. A project XKE with plenty of potential, this Jaguar is priced to reflect the work needed.
