About the 1971 Jaguar E-Type V12 2+2

The Series III E-Type V12 2+2 marked both the end of an era and a bold new chapter for Jaguar's icon. The 5.3-liter V12 engine delivered 272 horsepower and transformed the E-Type's character from nimble sports car to sophisticated grand tourer. While purists initially resisted the V12's weight and complexity, time has vindicated this final evolution. The 2+2 body style, with its distinctive longer roofline, offered genuine rear seating and enhanced practicality. Production of 7,297 units makes these relatively accessible compared to earlier E-Types, yet they're gaining recognition as the most refined iteration of Sayer's masterpiece. The V12's silky smooth power delivery and distinctive exhaust note create a uniquely satisfying driving experience. As the last true E-Type, Series III V12s represent excellent value for collectors seeking authentic 1970s grand touring character.
