Jaguar XJ 3.4 C 6Cylinder DOHC 12v 3442cc. 2 Door Coupe Manual. | Was For Sale NOT BY ME in Tunbridge Wells, Kent on EBay for GBP9995 July 2016.
DVLA Records show this Jaguar is Red and was First Registered 03 April 1974 and it has not been Taxed since July 1989.
According to www.newreg.co.uk This registration was first made available in 1974. The original office for this letter combination is Coventry.
This is, on the face of it, a 1974 Jaguar XJ12 Coupe finished in Regency Red with Biscuit Hide, but it is actually very special in the following respects.
It is chassis No. 1, i.e. Chassis 2G 1001, the very first V12 Coupe made, but it gets better than that, this car is actually Experimental Car Project ZX362 3.4 Engine, which means that it was taken from the V12 production line and fitted with the 3.4 saloon engine and manual gearbox, so see if this work be a workable combination. As it turned out, Jaguar decided upon the 4.2 and V12 engines as the only options, which means this is the only Jaguar Coupe to be made with the 3.4 engine and manual gearbox.
All of this information is outlined on the Heritage Certificate and older correspondence with Jaguar over the years. Dont forget, this car was produced in January 1974, a full year before any customers received their cars.
