Amazing garage-find Jaguars to be auctioned

TWO REMARKABLE Jaguars that were found abandoned in separate garages are to be sold at auction. A 1961 E-Type, one of the earliest ever made and confirmed as chassis number 40, was discovered just a few weeks ago in a garage near Le Mans by Coys auction house, which will also complete the sale. The car hasn’t moved since it was left in the garage in 1974, although Coys claims the engine was last started five years ago and it still turns over freely.

Out go the rounded taillights and glassy rear hatch of bygone models, and in comes a sharp new look with hints of Nissan GT-R, Ferrari F12 and Camaro about it.
