Win Our E-Type For ยฃ5.00

Our 1970 Jaguar E-Type Series 2  is in the 2+2 configuration, meaning it has a stretched wheelbase and the addition of rear seats. While the standard E-Type was a pure two-seater, the 2+2 was designed with a slightly more practical approach in mind, making it a more versatile choice for drivers who wanted the thrill of driving a sports car but also needed the option to carry passengersโ€”or, at the very least, extra luggage.

The 2+2 configuration involved extending the wheelbase by 9 inches compared to the two-seater model.  The addition of rear seats also slightly altered the E-Typeโ€™s iconic silhouette, giving it a longer, more elongated appearance.

This particular E-Type has been known to us for several years. The Bridge Classic Cars workshop team have maintained this stunning classic since 2021 and it has always been an admired part of the workshop collection and whoever is lucky enough to win it will have a fantastic classic for long road trips.

  • 4.2-litre straight six engine
  • 4-speed manual gearbox with overdrive
  • Known and looked after by Bridge Classic Cars since 2021
  • Recently completed a 1000-mile road trip from the UK to Spain
  • Finished in a stunning dark green with a sand leather interior
  • Bridge Classic Cars pre-delivery inspection

Torque Show – 20th September 2024

Molly, Craig and Rob sat down at the Bridge Classic Cars Classic Lounge to go through all the exciting things which have been happening at our Suffolk HQ this week.

We speak about our latest competition car, which we’re very excited to share with you, our 1970 Jaguar E-Type which could be yours for less than a cup of coffee! And generally about the E-Type and going on road trips with classics.

The team talk about our amazing time at the International Autojumble thanks to our friends at the Beaulieu National Motor Museumย and the incredible display they have in their wonderfully curated museum – and the results of our automotive interior design challenge where Rob & Nick were challenged by Molly to find some pieces for our Members Club HQ, The Classic Lounge.

We look back on this week’s competition winners, who won our 1959 Ford Zephyr and Frederique Constant Runabout Watch Set.

Goodbye To Our C-Type

Back in September 2021, work began in the Bridge Classic Cars workshop to build our Bridge C-Type replica.

Now, just over 3 years later, the project is complete and the car is off to its new home. Before it left us, we had to take some final photos of one of the most beautiful cars of all time!

Welcome Back

Our 1989 Daimler Double Six recently returned to the Bridge Classic Cars workshop.

Morgan 4/4 Wing Light

The owner of our 1964 Morgan 4/4 reported that the N/S wing light wouldn’t tighten up. Steve removed the light and found that the thread on the fixing nut stud had worn causing the nut to slip, so he put braise on both sides of the nut and refitted the light.

Sill And Wing Repairs

Clinton has fabricated new sill and wing sections for our 2003 Rover 75.

DB2/4 Grille

John recently removed and replaced the grille from our 1955 Aston Martin DB2/4. The chrome was flaking so a replacement was needed.

Devon Panel Alignment

Alan has continued the panel alignment and levelling on our 1951 Austin Devon.
