I've seen enough mint, shiny, perfect E-types in my life with those stupid engraved signs on them telling everyone how much they hate fingerprints. Well, I welcomed fingerprints on my Jag. See, "You can't take it with you!" So I thought I would make a video of all the Jags that "didn't go with them."

All photos are compiled from years of searching on EBAY for that special "Diamond in the rough." If you bought an E-type restoration project off EBAY, take a good look, you may just see your car.

  • Thanks for the video too !!!

  • my family recently restored a ser 1.5 etype 2+2 coupe from a lemon to a beautiful road going car. What really gets me bonkers, is people spending way too much money and never actually drive the car. It was MEANT to be driven and shown off. STOP LOCKING THEM AWAY TIGHT ARSES. Anyways we are now working on a chop top Mk V and we reckon William Lyons would be proud.

  • Well, I welcome fingerprints on MY XKE! And, not sad, per se, but every one of those poor fright pigs that *doesn't* get restored (ooo, LORD!!) means the surviving ones get more valuable: Go, tin worm!

  • Well done. Some of those cars I'd love to find, if only for some spare parts.

  • God that hurts to watch.

  • The MOT centre down the road from me had a Jaguar E type bonnet sitting up side down in a hedge, i presume the rest of the E type is probably in that hedge as well. probably behind the rusted out Austin A30

  • whats the song? It's amazing.

  • I would be the happiest man on earth if I found an s1 e type, even if it´s almoast completely rotten

  • This a real shame. Iwould gladly have accepted one of these before they were abandoned

  • Agh..Flashback 1984! One the first Green cars I ever turned a wrench on! Dirt cheap back then fella's! (Mint)! Well after I got done with it anyway..lol!

    Peace!
