16-Year Single-Specialist Pedigree: 1970 Jaguar XKE Series 2 FHC in Original Willow Green

Presenting a beautifully sorted, turn-key 1970 Jaguar XKE Series 2 Fixed Head Coupe. This stunning example is finished in its highly desirable, rare factory-correct shade of Willow Green, paired with a matching green leather interior. Powered by its iconic 4.2-liter dual-overhead-cam straight-six, this E-Type is the ultimate expression of standard-setting care, boasting an incredible single-shop service pedigree from 2011 through 2026 with the marque experts at Donovan Motorcar.

An Unprecedented $186k+ Documentation File

This vehicle represents a true "blank check" approach to vintage grand touring ownership. Accompanying the sale is a meticulous binder of continuous service records dating back 16 years, totaling an astonishing $186,819.47 spent exclusively at Donovan Motorcar to preserve, restore, and upgrade this XKE to an exceptional mechanical standard. Every single system has been systematically addressed, leaving zero deferred maintenance for its next custodian.

Comprehensive Restoration & Maintenance Highlights:

Engine & Drivetrain: Highly sorted 4.2L engine featuring upgraded high-temperature painted original exhaust manifolds, a new head gasket, electronic ignition, an electronic fuel pump, a spin-on oil filter conversion, and a complete clutch assembly replacement (with transmission re-sealing).
Modernized Air Conditioning: In late 2023, a brand-new RetroAir A/C system was professionally custom-fitted by Donovan, replacing the compressor, condenser, evaporator, and all hoses. It blows ice-cold and works perfectly, making it an incredibly comfortable summer cruiser.
Suspension & Steering: Massively overhauled ride height with custom-reset torsion bars, new front/rear shocks and springs, and a complete replacement of front/rear suspension wheel bearings, bushings, and mounts.
Braking System: Rebuilt to a high level, featuring front and rear brake calipers with upgraded stainless steel pistons, a stainless steel sleeved and rebuilt master cylinder/servo unit, and a freshly serviced master cylinder rebuilt in mid-2026.
Cosmetics & Glass: Beautifully presentable body and interior restoration originally handled by Donovan. It recently benefited from over $15,000 in professional body refresh paintwork, door/window frame adjustments, and full bumper alignment to ensure it shows wonderfully today.

Condition & Drivability

Showing 65,687 miles on the odometer, the car runs and drives flawlessly. It starts eagerly on the button, settles into a smooth idle, pulls with effortless straight-six torque, and shifts cleanly. The steering tracks laser-straight, and the upgraded brakes stop with modern confidence.

Vintage Jaguars are notoriously difficult to find in truly "no-excuses" mechanical condition. Thanks to more than a decade and a half of specialist care, this unique Willow Green coupe is entirely turn-key and ready to be driven, toured, or proudly displayed. Included in the sale is the full stack of Donovan Motorcar receipts totaling $186k+, original tools, keys, and clean documentation.
