JAGUAR E TYPE 5.3 SERIES 3
1972 Jaguar E-Type Series 3 V12 Roadster
Heritage Certificate | White over Red | Documented Recent Maintenance
The Series 3 V12 Roadster represents the final evolution of the E-Type, pairing the iconic open two-seater body with Jaguar’s smooth and characterful 5.3-litre V12 engine.
This example is the desirable open two-seater roadster, not the longer 2+2 coupe, and is supported by a substantial history file, Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust certificate, original-style manuals, historical paperwork, invoices and recent maintenance documentation.
Finished in classic White over Red leather, the car presents beautifully and carries the unmistakable visual appeal that has made the E-Type one of the most recognisable and admired classic sports cars in the world.
The Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Production Record Trace Certificate confirms this car as a Series 3 V12 open two-seater, right-hand drive, originally finished in White with Red trim and fitted with automatic transmission. The certificate records the date of manufacture as 22 October 1971, dispatch on 24 November 1971, and confirms the recorded chassis and engine details.
The car is accompanied by an extensive documentation file including the Heritage Trust certificate, operating and service manuals, historical paperwork, invoices, photographs and recent mechanical records.
Over $19,000 in recent documented expenditure has been completed, including a comprehensive recommissioning and rectification program in 2024, followed by further servicing and preparation in 2026.
The documented 2024 works included fuel sender replacement, windscreen replacement, ignition leads, oil pressure sender, spark plugs, timing adjustment, carburettor balancing on both banks, cooling system pressure testing and flush, fuel system checks, electrical repairs, ventilation control servicing and general rectification works.
Supporting parts records include a Clear Triplex front windscreen specific to the Series 3 V12 DHC, sourced from Martin Robey in the UK, along with further E-Type V12 parts including plug leads, oil pressure sender, fuel sender, windscreen rubbers, air filter, washer pump and related service items.
In March 2026, further servicing and preparation was completed with the odometer recorded at 79,968 km. This included an oil and filter service, speedo drive and seals, four new 215/70R15 tyres, wheel balancing and wheel alignment.

The current market for V12 E-Type roadsters varies significantly depending on body style, transmission, condition, provenance and documentation. This car should not be compared to 2+2 coupe examples — it is the open two-seater roadster, supported by Heritage Trust paperwork and a detailed file of recent documented works.
