The 'E' Type Forum

I've received the import documents and guidance from the DVLA. Apparently, for a used vehicle you must first make a NOVA declaration then you need to submit to the DVLA the following: - completed v55/5 and fee for tax (presumably ?0 for a 1960s e type). - original non UK registration document - for ...

As you may have read from my "Welcome" post, I'm thinking about buying an e type for sale in Germany. It's a 1967 car originally sold in the US but imported to Germany 20years ago. Does anyone know what the situation is with the certificate of conformity? I doubt very much it has one and the VOSA/DV...

I've found a couple more in the same price bracket, a white one in England and a red one in Norway. A specific question if I may to those with better knowledge of the market than me. My budget is ?55,000 and I've set my heart on a series one FHC. Is that a reasonable sum for a good condition, usable...

Thank you all so much for your input. I sent an email to the dealer two days ago and haven't yet had a response. I may call him tomorrow. I've also seen this one for sale. It's in Sheffield I think. http://www.sportsclassics.co.uk/inventory/jaguar/e-type/jaguar-e-type-fixed-head-coupe/view-61 It see...

My big question is, "am I judging the price properly"? I've seen a number of rougher cars and 2+...

I think you're right judging by the location behind the dash but, could it be related to the heater system? Whatever it is, it's non standard, which at forty eight years of age shouldn't be a surprise but it does raise questions about the restoration work which I think must have been performed at so...

I'm in Haywards Heath. Here's the car http://www.mo-vendi.de/index.php?article_id=16&data_id=323&clang=1 It seems pretty good, perhaps even too good but the old contradictory sayings are ringing in my ears simultaneously. "If it looks to good to be true....." and "don't look a gift horse in the mout...

Good afternoon all. A quick introduction from West Sussex. My name is Paul and I have just negotiated management approval for the purchase an E Type. I'm a recently retired airline pilot (early, medical reasons and not really planned) with a pretty much life long love of the most beautiful car ever ...
