Vehicle Description
Gateway Classic Cars of Atlanta is excited to present this bright
red 1973 Jaguar XKE 2+2. This consignor stated numbers matching
work of art shows very well! He also states the V-12 engine, rated
at 300-hp, was a complete rebuild, back to factory specs in 2005,
excluding a mild cam, and has ~5,000-miles on it. He bought this
beauty in that same year -and had her repainted 3 years later.
These classics have been considered a touring masterpiece of
timeless design, by many car enthusiasts. Designed by Malcom Sayer,
the Jaguar XKE went through many technical changes over the years
but never lost it's original design appeal. Three different series
models were produced during the XKE run. The series 3 was only
available as a coupe 2+2 and convertible "roadster" models. From
1971-1975 7,200 2+2's were produced. The XKE can be distinguished
as the car that sparred industry changes in both state- of- the art
technology and safety improvements. With such advancements as rack
and pinion steering and independent front and rear coil spring
suspension. Such early technology that we take for granted in
today's automotive world. Jaguar was one of the first manufactures
to build a car that was not only fast but could handle curves and
corners with ease. This Jaguar 2+2 comes with the desirable
5.3-liter V-12 engine mated to an automatic transmission. This fine
example is also a factory a/c car, and should make her that much
more desirable! The car just shows so well - between the beautiful
paint, the contrast of the saddle interior, and those real spoke
wheels - quad exhaust tips - just sets this baby off! Take a peek
inside, and see what quality looks like! The leather seat covers
have been replaced, and the remaining interior looks very well -
that's how well cared for - she shows! To top off this masterpiece
are many convenience features including power steering, power
brakes, factory air conditioning,[not in operation] telescopic
wheel, am/fm stereo, spare tire, seat belts, wire wheels Michelin
Energy MXV4 205/70R15 radial tires. Don't sleep on this one if
you've been dreaming of one of these Jags!!. To view the car in
