The Jaguar E-Type is amongst the most beautiful, desirable cars of all time, but that makes it expensive. There's no such thing as a "cheap" E-Type any more, but the Series 3 V12 cars are the most affordable - here's what to look for when buying!

I know I'm in a minority but I actually prefer the series 3. Still love the older ones but the series 3 sorted the weird skinny track of the previous cars. The coupe looks a bit ungainly but the roadster looks beautiful.

Great video with useful information for potential owners. As an ex V12 E Type owner I'll share the main thing about these and all E Types- they're absolutely rubbish to drive and are such an anti climax. Also, when stopping for fuel or a kebab the world and his wife will want to talk to you with offers of "...if you're ever selling..." and hold you up.

I considered a V12 until I watched Adam on 'Living with a Classic'. He advised that if you're going to change (just) the spark plugs you should allow 6-8 hours. 😧 Plumbers' nightmare indeed!

Actually the spark plugs on the E-Type V12 are more accessible than on the later HE V12 as in the XJ12 which are indeed laborious to change.

Good roundup of the S3. Marvelous drive when all is sorted - dreadful if not! Very true! I spend a 100k € to drive a 70k € car….. All US spec manual cars have the short 3.54 diff. Swap it with the 2.88 if you can - it makes a huge difference and suites the V12 so well! ✌️👍

Agreed - the difference between a good and bad E-Type is night and day!

I couldnt afford any E type but am lucky enough to have actually driven two.A 5.3 V12 and 3.6 sraight six.My pick if I could own one would be the straight six.On carbs sound and feel far more exciting on the over run.Yes the V12 Lucas ignition was absolutley terrible.

Would rather have the straight 6, the V12 is like having two engines.

How times have changed, those switches on the dashboard make it look almost kit car spec. Lovely but even if you are handy with a spanner (I'm not), you need a fortune to keep one as it should be. I'll pass on this one...I saw a smashing Mk 1 Fiesta on Twitter today though!
