So you’re thinking about buying a Jaguar XKE. Perhaps it was the timeless lines, the power, speed and handling, or the prospect of owning a classic Jaguar that brought you to this conclusion. One thing is certain: you will not be disappointed by the Jaguar XKE’s near perfect aerodynamic body style, the timelessness of its beauty or the enjoyment you will find when driving any Jaguar XK-E or E-type Coupe or convertible. Like any classic car of its age, the Jaguar XKE requires maintenance and care, and a little babying here and there, but if given the opportunity, she will give you years of enjoyment.

The Classic Roadster: Jaguar E-Type / XKE

When you’re look to buy classic Jaguar cars like the Jaguar XKE, there are a few things to remember. First and foremost, the E-Types are notorious for rusting. Rocker panels, the bottoms of the doors, points where the sub-frame attaches to the monocoque, around the rear hatch, and the spare-tire bay are all areas that are prone to rust and should be inspected thoroughly. While the most collectable are the early 3.8-liter Jaguar XKE convertibles, the Series I 4.2-liter two-seat coupe is a collectors bargain with prices found in the lower classic car price range. The most rare and coveted XKE cars are the Lightweights, of which only 10-14 were said to be built. Weighing nearly 500 pounds less than a production E-Type, Jaguar sold them to privateers for racing purposes.
