Description
Presenting a rare opportunity to own an exceptional 1966 Jaguar S-Type with a manual overdrive, finished in stunning Oxford blue with red leather interior. This matching numbers classic is a true time capsule, offering a superb blend of originality and performance upgrades.
This Jaguar, once owned by renowned London design guru Rae Hoffenburg, began its life as a 3. 4 but has undergone a complete engine rebuild to a fast road 3. 8 specification. Key performance enhancements include 9. 1 compression, fast race profile cams, a ported head with a matched stainless manifold, and a high-torque starter motor.
Handling is significantly improved with upgraded Gaz shocks, Harvey Bailey anti-roll bars front and rear, and uprated front springs. The car also features an uprated aluminium radiator and hydraulic power steering for added reliability and ease of use.
The exterior showcases stainless steel wire wheels fitted with Pirelli Cinturato tires, a stainless steel exhaust, and Coombs style rear wheel arches that add a touch of racing heritage.
The Fosseway vented front brake upgrade with remote bleed on the rear ensures optimal stopping power, while the heated front and rear screens and LED lighting upgrade offer modern-day convenience.
Inside, the car was re-trimmed in 2019, maintaining its classic charm while incorporating a Retrosound stereo for a vintage look with modern functionality.
All books, tools, and documentation are included, reflecting the car's meticulous care over the years.
This Jaguar S-Type MOD is not just a car; it’s a piece of automotive history and one of the finest examples known in the UK.
Don’t miss this chance to own a truly unique and beautifully preserved classic.
