CAR DESCRIPTION FROM SELLER
1970 XKE Roadster This is a 3 owner Jaguar with a well known local history. It was purchased new from British Motor Cars in downtown Portland Oregon, in 1970. The 1st owner was a lady who kept it 10 years, until 1980, and put 10,000 miles on it. The 2nd owner kept it for 29 years and put 5,000 miles on it. The 3rd owner bought this car with 14,800 miles in 2009. He kept it 11 years and put about 1,000 miles on the car, mostly to keep it in good running order. The last owner included a story about this XKE, in a book he wrote. This XKE won "Best Post War Original Car" at the Forest Grove Concours d'Elegance. A well known event. A short time later it "won best of show" competing against 400 participants. This has power steering and air conditioning, which was recently serviced. The Jaguar runs and drives like a 3 year old car. Remarkably, nothing has been apart on this car. For example: the carbs, (this has always had fresh fuel), gas tank, water pump, heads etc., etc., are all original to this car, just as it left England.The original soft top and rear plastic window are in wonderful condition. The top boot is soft, fits very well and not brittle. The leather seats, door panels, dash and carpets are nicely preserved. It has the original Lucas headlights. Correct Dunlop tires. The chrome is excellent. The trunk and trunk mat look like new. The tools have never been used, as well as the spare tire. Hard to imagine this has no oil leaks and everything works. The radio work's, the gauges, interior and dash lights, instruments, brake lights, headlights, taillights and back up lights all work. The glass and windshield are in exceptional condition. I remember very few cars (this age) being so well preserved. The car has not been offered publicly for sale in 50 years. This has 15,940 actual miles.Call 503-312-0822
