E-Type Jaguar - 1967 to 1969

The E-Type Jaguar was dark blue with grey leather upholstery. It was lovely to look at, great to pose in, and nice to drive. But, what a lemon.

It was delivered new with four rusty chrome screws, and the door was jambed shut, impossible to open. The door was rehung, and had to be readjusted, not once, but several times. The back of the seat fell off. The air-conditioning pipes were touching the exhaust manifold, so that broke down.

One thing after another broke down, frequently the same thing over and over.
