Federal regulations in the United States, Jaguar’s most important market, drove some of the Series II’s changes, including revised lighting and the shift to a pair of Stromberg carburetors in place of the three SU units of earlier E-Types. Externally, the air intake substantially increased in size, a change masked by larger, full-width bumpers that were matched at the rear to meet U.S. low-speed impact requirements. The well-proven 4.2-liter XK six-cylinder engine was little changed, although a higher-capacity water pump was fitted.

This highly desirable Series II Jaguar is shown in stellar red paintwork that is complimented by chrome knock-off wire wheels. The owner states that the car has received one sympathetic repaint. When the convertible top is down, it is protected by a black convertible boot. Moving this British car through the country side is a 4.2-liter inline six-cylinder engine. Backing the powerful engine is the reliable manual transmission. Equipped inside the car are a wood steering wheel, modern stereo unit, air conditioning and black bucket seats with pleated upholstery. The owner reports that the 43,000 miles are original to the car; and that the rest of the car is in near original condition.
