1973 Jaguar E-type Series III V12 Roadster

The 1973 Jaguar E-type Series III V12 Roadster is a classic sports car that was produced by British car manufacturer Jaguar from 1971 to 1975. It was the final iteration of the E-type, which had been first introduced in 1961.

The Series III was a significant departure from the earlier E-types, as it featured a larger, more powerful 5.3-liter V12 engine and a longer wheelbase. The V12 engine produced 272 horsepower and 304 lb-ft of torque, making it one of the most powerful engines of its time.

The Series III Roadster was also available with a 4-speed manual transmission or a 3-speed automatic transmission. It had a top speed of around 140 mph and could accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just over 6 seconds.

In terms of design, the Series III Roadster featured a sleek and aerodynamic body with a long hood, rounded fenders, and a short rear end. It had a folding convertible top and a leather-trimmed interior that provided a luxurious driving experience.

Today, the 1973 Jaguar E-type Series III V12 Roadster is a highly sought-after classic car that is prized for its performance, style, and rarity. Well-maintained examples can fetch six-figure prices at auction, and they remain a favorite among collectors and enthusiasts alike.
